Take a scrappy 1-0 win against a team that finished above us in the league no problem but that second half was an uncomfortable watch. Another day we`d have not got away with the win.

Unfortunately, most of what we did well in the first half we stopped doing after the break. Passing and crossing were especially dire 2nd half.

I guess NL likes Morrison for the energy and pest factor he brings. For me, he was largely a headless chicken with no end product. I thought he was winger (?) but he doesn`t seem to have much pace or a `trick` to get by anyone. Hopefully he plays blinder on Friday.

Hope to play better for longer on Friday. COYP.

And on another day we could easily have scored 3.

Such is football.

We had at least four clear cut chances in the match and should have been out of sight already.

Our midfield seemed to disappear at times. As someone else posted - Hammy might have helped there. I knew Arbroath would be quick and dangerous on the break, and they had the better of us in the second half but they had little cutting edge.

I think maybe our players were a bit over-anxious, being strong favourites tonight on our own pitch.

But we won without playing very well, which gives me encouragement that we can play better at Arbroath and get the result.

I`d give pass marks to almost everyone. Great to see Chris Kane on from the start and playing most of the game.

Matty Todd put a lot of good balls in, but Robbie Fraser wasn`t as much of a threat as he can be. Morrison was the only fail for me. He looks dangerous in moments, but it rarely leads to a chance for someone else.

Same team on Friday with Cooper in for Morrison please. It`s do or die. Take a risk on Charlie getting booked and then worry about the consequences later.

I’d agree with that Blacklight. I like Morrison but I feel Cooper adds a bit more.

Can see why Arbroath finished 3rd. Picked up most of the second balls and made it a very scrappy game. Glad to get out of it with a 1-0 advantage but it means we’ll need to score up there.

Thought the ref was atrocious for both teams, seemed to let everything go at first then went full circle and was blowing for the softest of fouls.

We’ve got a habit of scoring at Arbroath so hopefully that continues.

Thought after the goal so early we could’ve scored one or two more in that first half, but we were very pedestrian, we were deliberately slowing the play down at times.

Thought to myself we’ll be going for it second half with Arbroath a bit more leggy but they were excellent and we did well to get out of that with a W.

Morrison had a really poor game, again.

Personally thought Amade first half was superb, don’t know what happened the second half though!

Thought amade was excellent in the first half but fell off a bit in the 2nd.
We need to be better when on the counter, either the decision is the wrong one or the execution is poor.

Also thought the ref was atrocious.

Yes, I`m a fan of Cooper, there`s a lot to his game

Arbroath are tricky all right, and second half the past cked up a lot- can easily see why they finished third.

Job half done though, plenty decent performances, first legs can be a bit cagey, and this wasn`t a classic- I was glad to get back to the house! Heating on...

We failed to get a grip of midfield second half and O’Brien should have been at least yellow carded for his two footed challenge into Todd’s back in front of the NW. The ref I thought was dreadful.
We were hanging on a bit at the end and Arbroath looked more likely to score. Arbroath were fast and direct in possession and we were slow and more often took the easy option of passing backwards. Again I thought our best players were in defence and Mullen was my MoM.

Just watched Kane’s goal again. When he left it for Tod then to get it back from Andy was great play.
