Our shower of shit last year missed out by 11 points. Just 4 wins. This team is far superior in every department and will only get better as a group as the season goes on. We're gonna walk this league and push league 1 with just a couple of quality additions.Let's not get carried away. I think it would just survive relegation at the most.
Need a dislike button, BADLY!I think 2-1 them
What's making you so confident that there shite?
Last game they were 1 up and their opponents were down to 10 men after 17 minutes against Crewe. And they still didn't win :smuggrin:They have the smallest budget in L2 and Nouble is their big name signing. Nuff said. 2-0 city.

Is this team that good though? It's still an unknown quantity to me? I'm not saying it isn't but, we have played 3 games, cov fans just seem to be getting a bit carried away by two wins.
Well I was being a bit tongue in cheek but that didn't come across very well :woot: I do think we're much better in key areas though. Kelly and Doyle are getting a lot of praise but Vincenti is very important for me. Big tall outlet which gives us the option to go longer when needed without having to change the main game plan. Add to that a commanding GK, a midfield with bite, positive league experience, some pace and team spirit and i genuinely believe this team would stay up comfortably in the league above. And let's hope I'm right - they're all on 2 year contracts!Is this team that good though? It's still an unknown quantity to me?

Well, yup, true. McDonald has looked really good though and so too Doyle and Kelly and O'Brien. We know Stokes is solid and Jones seems to have finally flourished thus far.Is this team that good though? It's still an unknown quantity to me?

I said on another thread Vincenti is a really important player for us. He's awkward and frustrating but he's a huge part of the game plan.
When him and Jones switch the full backs have to rethink their whole game plan and it's caused real problems for them in both league games.
Yeh because people like Esoterica are sticking £2.50 on us.The bookies have placed us as 3rd favourites for a reason
Steady onWe're gonna walk this league and push league 1 with just a couple of quality additions

It's league two not the grand national
Don't be so disparaging. It was £3. I am genuinely excited by this team though and yes I know it's only 2 games but I don't remember balance and versatility like this in a Cov squad. If we stay injury free i think we'll do really well and things have been so shit for years that I'm not making any attempt to keep my optimism in check!Yeh because people like Esoterica are sticking £2.50 on us.

A stag do in Motherwell? I have lived up here over 14 years and have never been tempted to go to watch any of the teams although I may go and watch Stirling Albion this week with @BackRoomRummermill. I'm not sure whether I'll be enjoying the game I am at or worrying about how we are doing and constantly checking my phoneOff to the game still on Saturday after having to change my plans. But the game I am going to has changed :banghead:
Eldest lad has brought his stag do forward a couple of weeks as his best mate...best man...is leaving the country early through work. So am going to Motherwell v Ross County
Will.have ifollow on though
Stirling is about 16 miles away. In the SPL probably St Johnstone although Rangers, Celtic, Hamilton & Motherwell are within 40-50 miles. I have friends whose son is a STH at Motherwell. It's strange that I haven't been tempted as when I lived in Brussels I went with a friend to watch RWDM, who are based in Brussels, home and away for the 2 seasons I was there & I still follow their scores although they have been through some rough times and were relegated from the JPL for financial irregularities and have since folded and reformed & are now in about the 5th or 6th tier yet still get good crowdsMotherwell for the game only. My lad is a STH with them. Then into Glasgow for the night. At least it is in another country and I can't understand a word they say when they are pissed. Amazed they can even understand each other. So it will be like we have gone abroad for it :smuggrin:
Will be listening to our game and watching theirs. Could be fun if we score and Motherwell have a goal against them at the same time :woot:
So who is your nearest side?
Know the feeling. Motherwell is a father son thing. Just like when he watches us. We both join in with the singing. But I am never pissed off at a goal against them like he is. He loves coming to our games.Stirling is about 16 miles away. In the SPL probably St Johnstone although Rangers, Celtic, Hamilton & Motherwell are within 40-50 miles.

They have the smallest budget in L2 and Nouble is their big name signing. Nuff said. 2-0 city.
There's another ex player on their books, right? Was previously in our academy. Looks to be a starter for them in their recent games. Can't think of his bleeding name!!
He's probably more likely than nouble to score!
I'm going for a 3-1 win. Clean sheets can't go on forever! Although it would be nice to beat last seasons 8 consecutive ones (was it 8?)
Andreu to stay on the bench. Only changes should be through injuries
David Pipe
Craig Pead?I must have got David Pipe mixed up with another ex youth teamer, thought he was a smallish blonde fella. Looks a bit of a unit, #DOYLER8 will smash him though and let him know he's there.
Hey, c'mon let's show some respect for Elvis first and we can start thinking about the game from tomorrow, uhuh?game feels like an age away

I doubt it - pipe makes Robert page look like a saint.
He's spent 3 years at her majesty's pleasure for GBH
