Author: GG Riva Date: Tue 8th Apr 2025. 11:27 Lesliepartoo, Tue 8 Apr 09:53 The first goal is almost always crucial in every game, no matter the teams involved, but perhaps even more so in games involving the Pars this season. I believe the stats show that the teams that open the scoring usually go on to win about 80% of the time. ![]() Not your average Sunday League player. Reply |

| 43. Author: ParfectXI Date: Tue 8th Apr 2025. 12:00 For too long we’ve been having to get our goals from midfield or Kane! Watching the highlights and it’s clear to see our strikers react instead of anticipating! The bosses pal Ally McCoist got half his goals by following up in the hope the goalkeeper dropped it, ours seem to watch it thinking the keeper has it then when it’s spilled there’s almost an “oh sh*t” panic amongst the attackers and inevitably they are slower to react or further behind the defenders. This to me seems a training issue, something I’m hoping they are heavily addressing this week. Reply |
| 44. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Tue 8th Apr 2025. 12:24 Agree cammypar, I was exactly the same. Even if we were delivering peaches of balls into the box we still wouldn’t have scored. There was no one on that pitch that I’d have backed to score from a yard out with just the keeper to beat. If there’s no Kane there is no feeling around the place that we are going to score. Reply |
| 45. Author: wee eck Date: Tue 8th Apr 2025. 12:48 How did Otoo manage it against Livi? Kane was on the pitch but he wasn`t involved in the goal. It was the result of a poor defensive header from a pretty poor cross. Like Hamilton`s goal on Saturday it was highly preventable and not the result of a brilliant build-up. Reply |

Not sure if being serious (you can never be sure with some dotnet posters) but I was obviously talking about Kane. Also,just in case you don`t know what I`m on about with the Mr Glass reference, he`s the Samuel L Jackson antagonist in M Night Shamalayan Unbreakable Trilogy who has an illness that makes him really fragile. ie falls down a single step and breaks his legs. Turning him a total psycho. The refs need to give Charlie some protection then he might not get injured so easily. Have a perfectly pleasant day 😊 × Pars fan. Magpies fan. Mens tennis fan.

| 47. Author: cammypar 1995 Date: Tue 8th Apr 2025. 17:53 wee eck, Tue 8 Apr 12:48 Exactly highly preventable, we keep giving away too many highly preventable goals and that is reflected in our league position. As GG said above 80% of teams that score first go on to win the game. We don`t score enough and lose too many silly goals. We haven`t got any cutting edge up top. c'mon the pars Reply |
