Topic: Chris Kane
41. Author: parsfan Date: Tue 29th Oct 2024. 23:46 Dave_1885, Tue 29 Oct 23:25 pacifist, Tue 29 Oct 23:23 Still a place for Wighton. Disapointing to hear some boos when he came on when we were winning 3-0. In fact, more that disappointing - outrageous. Most embarrassing thing heard at East End in a long time booing on our own player at 3-0 up 🤦🏻‍♂️ Not that I was one, but more likely booing not bringing on Sutherland rather than Wighton himself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The universe is ruled by chance and indifference Reply
42. Author: da_no_1 Date: Tue 29th Oct 2024. 23:50 Yeah agreed but still not a good thing to hear "Some days will stay a 1000 years, some pass like the flash of a spark" Reply
43. Author: GG Riva Date: Wed 30th Oct 2024. 06:31 Chri s was simply outstanding. He must be a nightmare to play against. Never gives opposing defenders a minute`s peace. He must be knackered after that all action performance. Hopefully, he`ll be sufficiently recovered to start for us on Saturday. We`re so much better with him up front, I meant to reply to a poster who said that it looks as if Kane himself decides whether he`s fit enough to play or not. Unbelievable! The insinuation beinga that if he doesn`t fancy it, he declares himself unfit. If that was the case, would he put himself about as much as he does when he does play? Who would you expect to decide if he`s fit to start or not? Not your average Sunday League player. Reply

47. Author: gordi-b Date: Wed 30th Oct 2024. 12:13 Didn,t like the booing either, but surely it was a night to bring on Sutherland rather than Wighton G.B Reply
48. Author: Buster_Brown Date: Wed 30th Oct 2024. 12:28 When he’s on it, there’s no doubt in my mind Kane is one of, if not the, best Strikers in the league. Delighted to have him here because I always think we have a chance with him in the side. The booing of Wighton is really really disappointing. Yes, I’m no fan myself, but it’s hardly going to help in any way if he’s coming on to that reaction. Reply
49. Author: Jeffery Date: Wed 30th Oct 2024. 12:36 Kane looks like he loves playing against teams who try to have the keeper roll it out short to defenders. He`s on his marks at the edge of the box waiting for it to happen to force an error every time. Really hardworking player. Reply
50. Author: Lucho_8 Date: Wed 30th Oct 2024. 16:17 “When he’s on it,” Very rare occurrence Reply
51. Author: DA-go Par Adonis Date: Wed 30th Oct 2024. 16:22 Not really. We`d be in League 1 if he hadn`t arrived when he did last year and has done reasonably well this season with the lack of support he`s received. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I love it when we go sell Kevin Nisbet, He's gonna pay for everyone this season.

52. Author: GG Riva Date: Wed 30th Oct 2024. 16:23 Lucho_8, Wed 30 Oct 16:17 “When he’s on it,” Very rare occurrence Take a break from the forum bud. We won 3-0, best performance of the season. Kane was immense and you come up with that crass contribution. Not your average Sunday League player. Reply
53. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 30th Oct 2024. 16:23 What exactly is meant by `when he`s on it`? I would say his attitude and work rate haven`t varied from game to game so I`m a bit puzzled by that. Reply
54. Author: PARrot Date: Wed 30th Oct 2024. 16:33 Lucho_8, Wed 30 Oct 16:17 “When he’s on it,” Very rare occurrence Ye canny stop some folk. So this will be one of those rare occurrences when you come on here after a win. Fan.....my arse! Reply
55. Author: SevenTay Date: Thu 31st Oct 2024. 12:05 Chris Kane and Craig Wighton are 2 completely different styles of players. Kane`s style (chasing, harrying and closing down) suits the role he plays up top on his own while Wighton (linking up play and moving the ball quickly) was utilised more as a No 10 for Dundee and Hearts. Stevie Crawford played him alongside Declan McManus and Kevin O`Hara when he came on loan. He scored 16 league goals in his first season for Dunfermline in the Championship. McPake played him as a No 10 alongside Kane in the Kelty and Morton games and he played well in both games. In the 10 minutes of highlights of the Morton game Wighton was involved in the creation of 3 good chances. He collected the ball and played a quick 1-2 with Matty Todd to get to the byeline and put in a cross to Comrie who had a header on target that was cleared by a defender. Then from a throw near the halfway line in from Comrie instead of playing it back to him he flicked the ball between 2 defenders before chipping it over a defender to KRH who played it to Kane whose shot was blocked by the keeper. He later pounced on a loose ball and squared it to Matty Todd who shot wide. Reply
56. Author: Andrew283 Date: Thu 31st Oct 2024. 12:21 Our best 10 is Todd, by a long distance imo Reply
57. Author: yorkiepar Date: Thu 31st Oct 2024. 12:21 Good analysis, SevenTay. Wighton is certainly not a “rough and tumble” striker like Kane but in the Livingston game, amongst other highlights, I spotted one breathtakingly good ball to KRH which, (and like the examples you listed) whilst it didn’t lead to a goal, was a moment of pure class. When utilised properly I have no doubt that Craig Wighton is still a massive asset to this squad. Reply
58. Author: wee eck Date: Thu 31st Oct 2024. 12:49 You must have been watching the wrong highlights, SevenTay. We were reliably informed that Wighton lost the ball every time he touched it in the game against Morton. Reply

We were reliably informed that Wighton lost the ball every time he touched it in the game against Morton. We played well against Morton eh! Looked like we were going to score every time we got the ball, Wighton tore them to shreds, It wasn’t like we drew 0-0 against a team that was missing numerous first team players and went on to get humped by Hamilton the next week. Could well be a player in there but he’s absolutely coasting just now and he was dug meat against Morton. COYP Reply
