Yes they hammered us last season but feel that is squinting views a little bit. We also drew 1-1 at parkhead. We've a much better team than last year who are still finding their feet. Can get a decent result here and kick start our season 

1-1 Morelos. 

I don't know if we've improved since last year to be honest, yes we've got better players in that respect but we're still conceding soft goals and not really putting our chances away. We've had 4 90 minute results that have ended 2-3, 0-0, 2-2 and 1-1. I guess we won't know until Saturday.

Law of averages mean they have to lose a game sooner or later got a feeling we might just sneak this one.

Think we'll go with 5 in midfield to match up with them also suspect Miller will start the game maybe in the roll Pena played last night.

One things for sure we can't start Windass he's liable to do something stupid and get sent off especially the way elbows Brown is given a free reign to do what he wants in these games.

[Wearethepeople72 1,845]

I think with the players we have available it will have to be three at the back.

I'd go something like:

                          Wes

            Cardoso Alves Wilson

      Tav   Dorrans Jack Holt John

                           Pena

                          Morales

 

Would maybe consider starting Herrera if Pena isn't fully fit, at least he would give us an option to go long when necessary and maybe ask their defence some questions in stages that we don't have a lot of the ball.

Honestly think we'll beat them on Saturday. Fuck knows why but it's just a hunch. Either 2-1 or 3-1 to us with Morelos getting a double, if there's a 3rd goal it'll come from Dorrans.

Probably the team I'd go with. Then Miller on for Peña with half an hour to go.

[Frank Reynolds 3,359]

Win and we're two points behind.

Unfortunately we won't win, and we'll finish 8 points behind.

[Prso's headband 35,426]

We start Windass and Miller and were playing with 9 men already.

4-5-1

                          Fod

      Tav Cardoso Alves Hodson

Candeias Jack Pena Dorrans John

                     Morelos

[james_85 656]

I think we could have a right go at them and be solid at the back if we went 3-5-2 - Team below obviously depending on injuries. Windass and Miller will be good for impact subs

                                Fod

         Mccrorie/Hodson Cardoso Alves 

Tav      Jack        Pena    Dorrans      Candeias/John

                    Morelos   Herrera

[FlippinEck 3,702]

Fod

Tav Cardoso Alves Wilson* John

Candeais Jack Dorrans Windass

Morelos

                                           

*If fit

Worse teams have beat them in shitey wee places if we can stop Brown and thumb parading like they own the place thats a good starter for us.

[SkylineBlue 23,301]

If you strip away the bravado and look at this honestly, a draw is a good result.  The only way it will be a draw is if it's a low scoring game, which means our defence has to be absolutely solid at the back.

I hope we beat Craptic this week...

Pena 

Morelos 

It was either Dorrans on the left or Hodson at LB. Chose the lesser of two evils.

Think Rossiter is injured.

Pedro played Hodson before Wilson  Not sure Wilson will get a start to be honest

[WeirFleckNRothen 1,789]

Foderingham, Tavernier, John, Alves, Cardoso, Jack, Dorrans, Candeias, Windass, Miller & Morelos.

That'll be the starting line-up, 100%.

I honestly can't bear another pumping. That'll probably tip me over the edge, so here's hoping. However, the two games against Partick have filled me with nothing but disappointment.

[Tenerife Bear 1,748]

Genuine must win. If we don't he can empty his office right after the final whistle. Expecting a heavy loss and a new manager Monday morning.

After watching Bruno Alves for what must be well over a decade I would love to see from him one of those champions league, international cup performances where he punts Griffiths in to the stands early and often. I could see a man of his experience, praying he is fit, knowing exactly how to deal with a rabid like him.
