43. Author: jake89 Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:22 Get Cacares and Amade on. Reply |
44. Author: Dandy Warhol Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:22 We definitely need a presence up front for sure. I don`t wanna go down like disco. Reply |
45. Author: ubisanman Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:24 Hang on till half time. Hosler for Kearney and Young for Kane, start of the 2nd half. Reply |
46. Author: JTH123 Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:26 Another game at Starks where we are getting absolutely bossed. The number of times we have it in midfield and are passing it backwards or sideways is shocking. Reply |
47. Author: TAFKA_Super_Petrie Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:29 Easton and Brown dominating us in the middle. Going front to back too often and not working as Young`s hold up play is brutal. --------------------------------------------------------------- ![]() [b]"People always talk about Ronaldinho and magic, but I didn't see him today.

49. Author: Berkey Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:30 Raith will be quite happy to keep it tight and watch us play in front of them in the second half knowing it’s unlikely based on this we score. We can’t even get a decent set piece opportunity. I get we want potential and youth but it’s men against boys in some positions, we need quality in the right area’s too and we’ve none in the final third today and half the team hasn’t turned up. Young couldn’t control his bladder so far. Boothe looks like a mistake, not up for the physical nature of this very physical league. Otoo looks lost. Hairdrier incoming from Lennon. The post below replying to me is by one of .nets finest champions of mediocrity! Reply |
50. Author: Jeffery Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:30 Easton and Brown have been everywhere. Not sure we`ve managed a chance yet. Feels like a James McPake game. Reply |
51. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:31 Second half we will need to lift the pace and don`t let them rest. I would be taking Otoo off and TOB at half time. G Wardrope Reply |
52. Author: Lucho_8 Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:31 Otoo and j.tod need to get hooked at HT Reply |
53. Author: kelty_par Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:32 Why do we do this every time we go to Stark`s Park? We look like a team who have never played together, the defence are all over the shop, our passing is woeful - too often we are giving it away and when we don`t we are going backwards like we were imunder McPake and Tidser - and we aren`t running at their ancient backline. The entire back three are having a nightmare -.Tod keeps playing it too far so they are letting him have the ball since they know it`ll soon be out for a bye kick, Benedictus is struggling with the pace and movement and the least said about Chilokoa-Mullen the better. and absolute shocker of a performance in almost every way even down to his throw ins. The midfield is being totally overrun - I`d have had Amade in there myself - and have barely passed the ball between them. Both wing backs have been poor. Not taking their man on giving it away too often. Young is totally isolated and expecting him to win high hopeful punts up to him when he has Fordyce and Hanlon on him is just mental as a tactic. Tod again offered little before he was taken out by Stevenson but at least Cooper has looked lively. The thing is, it`s a terrible game and it`s only the one chance we gifted Raith that is the difference. Maybe if Cáceres, Kane and Kearney can come on and make a difference we can somehow get out of Dodge with a point. But at the moment I can`t see how we get back into this. Reply |
54. Author: par_33 Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:33 Shoulda cashed in on Otoo, been with us so long now and I’m unsure what his best position is still? Reply |
55. Author: Bertie Paton Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:35 Appalling. Bullied all over the park. Reply |
56. Author: buffy Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:35 Otoo is crowded out every time. Cooper is making it forward but no one at the end of it. Thank the lord for John Tod. Hope Andy is ok. ”Buffy’s Buns are the finest in Fife”, J. Spence 2019” Reply |
57. Author: d3monstrate Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:35 Berkley is spot on, Otoo and TOB are completely anonymous, KRH scared to get involved. Young trying to get involved but not even getting scraps. JCM having a nightmare, Easton got him in his pocket, and now on a yellow probably needs hooked as well and maybe a change a shape Reply |
58. Author: Parster Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:35 What a terrible first half losing every 50/50 can`t retain possession absolutely nothing up front he must change things because as it is I fear the worst Reply |
59. Author: AlterPar Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:37 Saying that was terrible would be a compliment. I’ve never liked this formation, really hoped to see the back of it. Reply |
60. Author: RossF Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:38 Tod should never be letting Mullen get that pass to Stevenson. Otoo, Young and Hosler have all been dreadful. These are the games where Young needs to show what he’s capable of up front but he’s hid away so far. I can see Kane coming on for the second half to show Young what is required. Reply |
