Who scores goals worth more than dosh - Josh!

Who makes critics eat their tosh - Josh!

Who`s got Rovers* under the cosh - Josh!

NL on Josh in his post match interview "he`s an impact player. He knows his role in the squad."

Just because he can make an impact off the bench, doesn`t mean he can`t make an impact from the start...imho.


You missed out the bit that he said basically that he’s making it difficult not to consider him starting.

I think he starts next week to be honest in place of Morrison, think he would be more effective.


I think we are comparing him to the wrong player. I think it’s to easy to look at Morrison and think he’s not doing as much as others so I’d play Cooper instead of him but Morrison and Cooper to me are doing very different jobs.

Morrison has played best hugging the touchline and giving us width. That’s not something I see cooper doing. I’m not against starting Cooper in front of Morrison I just think we’d be asking them to do different jobs and the question should be -who’d be more effective against that opposition rather than who’s playing better football.

I agree NMC but at the moment cooper can quite easily do what Morrison is doing 9 times out of 10….ie take a touch then pass it back.

The difference with cooper is he’s far more likely to stick away the chance Morrison missed on Friday and I’d wager he’d have more quality to his crosses.

I’d stick Kearney out wide in place of Morrison and Cooper and Tod up front. Zak also benched.

Wouldn`t it make more sense to have Bray wide right and Cooper playing in the middle?

Yeah but we’re still talking about someone doing a different job to someone else.

Maybe it was because it was away and less have seen it but Cooper came on for Morrison at Livi and we looked a lot less likely to score for it. Cooper isn’t as quick and he kept turning inside and offered nothing. Morrison stayed wide and kept them stretched, got balls in the box.

I’m not having a go at Cooper, I’m simply saying it’s got to be horses for courses.

No thanks I`m vegetarian. 😉

But I agree with you NMC that Morrison does a different job. I don`t think of Josh as a winger, I think of him as what we called in the old days an inside forward. Someone who keeps fairly close to the centre forward and can feed him or score. Have Kane and Josh been given a chance to gel as a partnership?

If Cooper starts, he needs to make an impact. Most of the time, we start him after a good performance and end up subbing him due to a lack of impact.

I want someone to tell me why Morrison tried to score his chance with the outside of his boot? He was also far too passive anytime he got the ball.

I like Cooper and wouldn’t mind seeing Bray replace Morrison, with Cooper through the middle, although I can’t see this happening.

This is Andy Tod`s world and we are lucky to live in it.

Can anyone confirm the last time Cooper actually started a game? Hasn’t started a game this season.

I think it was the last League game of last season on 01/05/26 when we drew 0-0 with Arbroath prior to the two play-off games against them.

It’s B1N for those that know.

It’s utterly cringeworthy, not sure where it’s should be put but the trash will suffice..

Why can`t some people accept that Cooper and Morrison are members of a squad that get utilised in one way or another according to what the manager sees fit. He scored the winner and I`m really chuffed for him but that doesn`t or shouldn`t mean he`s a definite starter v Arbroath.

13 goals in 1808 minutes by my reckoning.... so a goal every 139 minutes, or roughly about 2 goals every 3 games.

Even at Stirling he had more appearances as a sub than as a starter and his most notable scoring feat there was coming on as a sub against Kelty in the 68th minute and scoring a hat-trick.
