Same team as last night let them get more games together and build some momentum.

94th minute equilizer, postponed us winning the league by a week.

Mental game 

[AGM_72 3,644]

Same team again. 

Get the game sewn up early, then give minutes to Hagi, Souttar and Ridvan etc.

Be interested to know how often we named an unchanged 11 this season, can't have been often and is a big part of why we struggled so badly early in the season.

[KingKirk 25,654]

Same team and get it won inside 45mins 

[AberfeldyBlue 1,557]

2 goals, 3 missed sitters, 5 offside and 2 assists from The Sash

 

[STEPPS BOY 73,999]

Can’t imagine Jack playing in this so Tillman in for him.

Would like to see McCrorie start too.

They knocked us out the Scottish cup at Ibrox the following season after that aswell 

[Big Al 55 9,268]

Only chance to win a trophy, full strength team. Get it finished, then rest players if necessary.

They did, but that final takes some beating 

[RockwellGers 14,718]

Raith crest not loading, nice touch.

[ayro 3,011]

McGregor

Devine Goldson Davies Barisic

Cantwell Lundstram Raskin

Sakala Colak Tillman

Front 3 to be fluid like last night, get the game done at 60 minutes and then change it up with Souttar, Ridvan, Hagi etc

If McCrorie is fit play him instead of McGregor.

[Jimfanciesthedude 24,556]

As strong a team as possible, maybe swap Jack for a more attacking midfielder and just let raskin patrol the middle of the park

Get 4 or 5 first half and then ring the changes 

[The true baller 972]

7-0

No unnecessary rotation please -strong side to get the game won required.
