He's a capped international striker

[Granite95]

Happily just play the reserves and youth players. 
 

Give Barron, Duncan, Myslovic, Bavidge etc a chance 

3rd secured, let guys like Duk and Clarkson enjoy a week earned rest 

[maryhilldon]

They should take the field with a carryout and cigars. Fuck it.

I agree about resting Duk and giving Bavidge a start. Duk looked last night like a player who needs a rest. With everything settled re league positions and Europe and if Scales could sign full time for us l wonder if Scales would be able to play.?

[donswin1983]

Just play the woman’s team. Couldn’t give a fuck!  The minks should rest every first team player in prep for a must win Scottish cup final. 
0-0 and Drew Jarvie to play the last 20 minutes. 

[fine-n-dandy]

Under normal circumstances this would be a great time to put out our ‘surplus’ cart horses to kick absolute lumps out of Celtic but we probably don’t want to injure too many of their players on this occasion sadly 

[BrisDon]

Suspect Celtic players will get a kick up the arse after the Hibs result and with the Cup final a week away. Don’t want them to be too horse shit and fuck up the final.

Think Barron will start instead of Ramadani, but otherwise that’s the team I’d go with for a nothing game.

[Donstar83]

Let Lewis start. Probably his last appearance for us, and despite his recent form he's been a great player for us. 

[Broken_Glass]

Captain Shinnie and Roos V them.

Shinnie was magnificent last night and with his four game rest he's still got the engine and legs purring like a Rolls Royce.

Give everyone else the day off. 0-0 all over it.

Ahead of what, the 6 week rest?

Dont want to risk a Duk injury for next season as I'm fearing the worst on Miovski. Hayes suspected concussion. Those are the only two id rest

It'd be more worthwhile reporting on when Hayes ISN'T concussed 

[The Gee Man]

Definitely no Duk get him wrapped in cotton wool( wet dream for some I bet). 

[aberdeen1970]

Duk clearly playing with an injury last night. Wasn't keen to try any sprinting. 

I think he'll be out. 

Can see Bavidge and Duncan starting as well as MacKenzie.

No point in risking him badly damaging that hamstring & maybe struggling to make pre-season, even more so as we don’t know how bad Miovski is.

Whilst we don’t want a battering, in the grand scheme of things it doesn’t overly matter.

You’d think there will be a come down on Saturday, but it’s understandable & forgivable should that happen. 

[WesthillWanderersFC]

                    Roos

Pollock MacDonald MacKenzie. 
                 Clarkson.  
McCrorie Rama Shinnie Hayes   
             Bavidge Watkins

 

[GeorgeStreetReds]

Not bothered. Start Bavidge.

Hope so - I've £20 on at 9/1 we win the handicap league (nah not the mooted Scottish Conference league, the one where we get a 38 point start)

Who knows?

They’ll want to pick up their performances before the cup final you’d think? 

You’d also expect some sort of “come down” from our players after the high of Wednesday when our goal was reached? 

Regardless, it doesn’t really matter & it’s a free pass as far as I’m concerned.

I’m just glad we’re not having to get anything out of it & can relax. 
I’ll be more interested in the Edinburgh Derby, hoping Hibs can win & demote the Huns to 5th. 

 

[Zeus]

7-0 The Dons.

[StandFree1982]

Would be good to finish the season with a win and a positive goal difference. I suspect it will be a fairly drab affair with us basically playing a makeshift reserve side and Celtic will have one eye on the final and won't want to risk injuries. 

[JojoJuan]

Don't expect a classic, but with neither side needing to worry about anything there might be a bit more time on the ball for everyone. 

Will be rooting for Hibs against the mini huns and the sweetest moment of the weekend will be the silver fraud inevitably taking Dundee Utd down

[starryfish]

Don’t think McCrorie will be fit for two matches in three days, plus a big move in the offing

[aberdeen1970]

I think we'll field a pretty fringe team and probably get beat as they'll be required to start switching on again before the final.

However, zero fucks will be given should we get beat on this occasion
