[Guest milne_afc]

I'd keep Madderz fresh for Sunday, too. Rooney offering nothing.

 

I think we'll lose anyway.

[buchanskii]

McInnes will try and match them physically, I predict a turgid long ball fest with a single goal deciding the game.

[The Cockney Don]

@@Tord31 , Quick off the mark there me old china, was just about to start the match thread myself.

 

We'll win on Penalties.

I fancy us to win this one at home.

[BWG]

Assuming it'll be the same team as today. If that's the case really hope Rooney gets himself a goal. Don't want to predict the score as we usually go to rat shit against this lot.

Puppies are not just for Christmas Tord

[Daz the Don]

The most important game we have this coming week.

 

A tough battle and a narrow 1-0 win.

[cruzcampo3]

Hope this doesn't go to pens

[Tord31]

A hampden semi would be nice. It's been a wee while

Haha. ok on other thoughts Morton at Tynecastle please

[RUL]

Play our best team, think we will sneak this one. We've lots of options and the players are fit, they can handle 3 games in 6 days.

our best team or mcinnes first pick team?

[Guest RosemountRed]

Outside of the tims, sainties very much the team in form. And with that a defeat to stop them in their tracks. Time for mcinnes to halt all this 'wright owns him' pish.

 

Correct, time for us to pump these lot

[V for Vendetta]

This is the big one for us, not the game against the pretendy gers.

 

Really hoping for a win here would do us a power of good in so many levels.

 

As someone else said St J are the form team at the moment so a win here would be a big statement.

Also need to see McInnes get one over on Wright.

We need to keep our confidence growing after the win today.

and a Cup final run (or 2) this season has got to be due.

 

I really hope McInnes gets the selection right and we come out flying.

[Chewie37]

Touche

Are they European?

[reekie_dock]

Out

 

2-0 the saints, just being a realist.

[Panda]

Anyone suggesting certain players should be rested for Sunday have got their priorities wrong. Big game on Sunday sure, but this is our biggest domestic game of the season to date.

 

It's one fear I have is players having one eye on Sunday, not wanting to get injured for it or knacker themselves and put themselves out of contention.

 

Lewis

 

Logan O'Connor Considine Shinnie

 

Storie Pawlett

 

Hayes Maddison Burns

 

Storey

 

 

I'd drop McGinn. I don't think he's been as bad as some make out (there's people on here who love it when he has a poor game) but I like how direct Burns is.

 

Think Storey and Storie both deserve a chance. Pawlett over McLean in midfield.

[muttonhumper]

Think Storey and Storie both deserve a chance.

 

Agreed.

 

It's time to begin a new chapter in their AFC careers.

[The Boofon]

 

Agreed.

A novel idea.

We will have to wait and see if the manager is on the same page.
