|
|
Again I'll start this one given that I'm on a bit of a roll with results when starting the match thread.
Despite the Lichties getting howked to the tune of half a dozen tonight, this will not be an easy game by any means. We should have enough to get the better of them but not by lumping the ball in hope and into the air.
Get the ball on the deck and pass it quickly and accurately and we should be able to get the three points.
Do that and then the pressure is all on United against a Thistle team smarting from two defeats. _________________ Talk on! Talk on!

I know football isn’t played on paper but everything is stacked in our favour for Friday.
They apparently done well to keep Queens Pk to 6 this evening again with a small, walking wounded squad which surely won’t relish the short turn around before Friday!
Dare I suggest we could be looking at a win by over one goal? Four Five Seven? Can we even reach double figures?
Arabs have the Saturday trip to Firhill followed by that tricky looking away game in Greenock on Tuesday, we NEED to apply the pressure |

Hey, SB - I think looking for a 457-0 victory is optimistic, even by my standards. 😁
A relaxing 2-goal margin would do me just fine |

I'll be happy if we win it by one goal, they are a wounded beast and backed into a corner, I smell danger! _________________ http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/ |

Stanton, Easton, Brown, Hamilton all on the bench. Start for Matthews and Turner. Checked with Skybet for prices on first scorer and they still list Ethan Ross and Lee Ashcroft to score first
12/1 Turner. Cash on

Watson crocked now. ☹️
ETA HT now. Just hope fervently that we don't regret missing all those chances and half chances by the end of the game. _________________ Talk on! Talk on!

Gotta say that Rudden has been a good player for us.
Would be happy to see him again next season.

Just knew it! We can't seem to hold on to a lead without letting at least one in. 🥺 _________________ Talk on! Talk on!
