SteelmaninOZ Posted November 10 Report Share Posted November 10 A nice little winter weekend away up North, for some a long drive for some. We should have some more players to pick coming back from Injuries/fitness. Will the kettle pair Stama and Watt up front. With proper service from the midfield instead of hoof ball?

AllyMax Posted November 10 Report Share Posted November 10 Will we win 2-1 and have all the usual suspects on complaining again ? Or will we lose 2-1 and have all the usual suspects on complaining again ? 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You forgot to cover the draw, that will have them all complaining as well, no matter what the result is SK will be blamed for something. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you two, also like clockwork, will continue to post in a similarly predictable way to those whose opinions you seek to deride. Keep it up, we all get a kick out of it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellfan91 Posted November 12 Report Share Posted November 12 Even a 5-0 win would have some moaning and complaining about SK! Unbelievable Jeff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewelllfan Posted November 12 Report Share Posted November 12 Reckon Paton comes back in for this game which should help link the game a bit more than we have been in recent weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Stall Posted November 12 Report Share Posted November 12 Im old enough to know that we shouldnt count any chickens but if you look at the other fixtures that day, a win for us would be very handy! Rangers will likely beat Dundee Utd St M v Aberdeen - someone/both is dropping points Hibs are playing away & Hearts are getting cuffed off Celtic so chances there to put more daylight between us & the danger zones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan Posted November 12 Report Share Posted November 12 I’m going to this game for an overnight, so I fully expect a massive victory and for me to invade the park to congratulate Kettlewell. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted November 12 Report Share Posted November 12 We seem to be slow starters after international breaks, often taking at least the first half to bring any pressing or tempo to our game. Maybe sticking with Kaleta and Maswanhise in the starting lineup will inject a little more urgency from the kick-off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirParkCornerExile Posted November 12 Report Share Posted November 12 Ross County are a bit more free scoring than us but defensively worse. This will be a tough game but it's a venue we haven't done too bad at in the past. On current form we should be looking to win but I got a feeling a hard fought draw is on the cards.

Since we have already won 2 league games in a row the chances of us achieving 8 wins in a row are slim and probably the chance of us going 8 in a row undefeated are less than 50/50. So all we can do is focus on one game at a time and we’ll see how things end up. COYW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya Bezzer! Posted November 12 Report Share Posted November 12 Noticed that we've not taken league points three fixtures in a row at any point this season and we've won our last two.... Ross County have also only lost at home to Celtic and Aberdeen this season. Although on the other hand they have only scored 1 goal from open play in their last 6 matches (plus a pen and an OG). With 6 draws in 13 matches this season for County it might be a tight affair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Posted November 14 Report Share Posted November 14 A wee early heads up Just had a look at the Met Office 10 day forecast on You Tube. A fair chance of snow and below freezing daytime temperatures all of next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not as if he didn't know this game was coming up. It's stupid mistakes like this that prove he's not going to have long left in this job.

David Posted Wednesday at 10:29 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 10:29 AM Never mind the result. That comes secondary to us winning the possession contest, surely? Will this be the game we finally crack that 35% number and send our possession-obsessed fans into a tizzy? Or will we do what we usually do? And win 2-1 while only getting 8 kicks at the ball team-wide? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll settle for 1% possession in the last minute to create a sweeping move that results in a winning goal and 3 points to take back to the Shire.

Don't forget to include the inevitable "left back switches to right back across the defence" initiated round of applause from our fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted Wednesday at 12:32 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 12:32 PM I don't obsess over the possession stats, and I'm OK with counterattacking tactics when they work - and they are working right now. I also don't think it's unreasonable to enjoy watching us pass the ball around more than watching the opposition pass the ball around, so I get why people would prefer us to have better retention.
