 Match thread ~ DAFC 2-0 Kelty Hearts FT
Topic Originator: buffy  
Date:   Sat 7 Feb 11:48

I’m engrossed in the Winter Olympics - love the downhill slalom, ski jumping and ice skating. ⛸️ ⛷️

I’ll be on live updates duty later at EEP. Nice weather for ducks as I watch Aldis car park, fill up like a swimming pool, through my kitchen windae. 🦆

Team selection up around 2pm.

Mon the Pars.

I hope he puts a strong team out which I’m sure he will.

I’d like to see Kane get a start today alongside Rudden with Carey tucked in just behind.

Gilmour in the middle with Amade makes sense to me, I’m sure Turley will be give minutes today also.

I would change the defence too much, possibly see Kearney coming on for Todd.

As for the keeper does he stick with Mehmet after last week or is Terrell given the nod again.

I suppose time will tell.

Really looking for a fast start today and show our quality from the off.

Ivthink its all very well knocking the ball around at the back and playing into feet but its one speend and predicatble. Somethimes you need to knock the ball into space in the final third, and look for runners to create movement. We are making it hard work down the wings, amd when a cross comes in we arent getting on the end of it. The Rudden Morrison partnership isnt working for me. We should be a bit more direct through the middle. Big improvement needed second half if we are to win this game.

For me, get Carey and Ngwenya off for Kane and Kearney. If Kane can`t handle 45 mins, get Thomas on. Move to a back 4 and push Matty Todd forward. 4-2-3-1 with an actual striker on the park.

Thought we would get a big reaction today after last weeks performance
We need to get the finger oot , we are so lethargic we need to up the tempo and force kelty onto the back foot and into making mistakes
we just need to watch we do not get caught out on the counter attack , we need to be switched on as that is often our achilles heel

Paying the price for not bringing anyone with pace and the trickery to beat a man so far under Lenny, never look likely to get in behind teams. Morrison is all workrate but very little else so far.

As usually everything played in front of the team so very easy to defend again and no one has any ideas about what to do.

Not convinced in the 352 formation but we don’t have natural width and any wingers to play 442. Fraser and Todd are not wingers.

A while I go, I challenged someone when they said Lennon has nothing to prove at this level. The rationale for my challenge was that he inherited vastly superior squads at the only two clubs he`s been successful with - Celtic and Hibs. I got pelters for it at the time, but part of me is still not convinced by him.

Not convinced this formation works when you have to take the game to the other team as we often have to do at EEP. Ultimately it`s a back 5 with 2 not particularly creative midfielders in front of them in Gilmour and Amade.

You’re 100% correct. Closer to the bottom than the top of the league, recruitment not good enough either. 2 goalkeepers and still playing Mehmet up to today. Strikers not good enough, granted a couple have worked in Gilmour, Fraser and JCM. Dozens of player have come and gone from last season and this seasons “loans” miles off it and just taking space.

No excuse for not winning today. Jury’s most definitely out for what we see to be spending on management and squad.

He did pretty much keep us up last season.

Poor first half, better second and in the end 2-0 about right. Agree regarding the lack of player that can dribble and beat a man. Great balls in from Kearney and Cooper for the goals, Kane doing what he does well. Thought Matty Todd was pretty lively, getting forward, looking to play forward passes. Carey was poor, can (hopefully) only get better. Morrison a bit unlucky, movement and touch is good - unlike most of our forward players. Should have had an assist for Kane`s `first`.

We have enough players to put the ball in the net ... for me too many short passes in midfield. Why play Amade and Gilmour together. Both are great - but they are typically a 5-10 yard passer after mopping up a ball.
Morrison was lively- he will come very good soon. The back three are solid - love that combination. Albeit JCM was a bit quiet today.

That was hard work—and for much of the game a very hard watch. For a large chunk of the game, Kelty`s desciplined defence held their line very well, and effectively man marked us out of it in midfield.

It was only when Kearney and Kane came on that we saw our tempo lift and Kelty start to tire. Inevitably, the goals arrived, thanks to fine work by Kearney down the right and Kane`s lethal finishing. He could have had a hat trick. I really don`t know what was wrong with the first—it looked like it went into the net.

Clearly, Kane gets the plaudits today, but Ngwenya continues to impress. He comes across as a natural leader, constantly urging his fellow team mates to pull their socks up. I think he has found his place in the team now.

But what`s happened to Caceres? Didn`t even make the bench.

Caceres wants to go home.

We struggle against teams that come to defend. No idea how to get through a wall of defenders.
Need more movement and pace. Morrison tries.

We always play better against teams that have a go.
Once we scored and they had to come out it was all over.

Difficult to play well when your opposition has 11 players behind the ball all the time.

Made the game a really difficult watch, we lacked any pace to really generate any momentum, really slow

Fans were booing when Lennon subbed Morrison off for Kearney when it was that sub and bringing Kane on that won us the match.

Lennon earned this one.

The team setup was wrong in the first half. We struggled to break them down and at times looked genuinely surprised that Kelty came here to sit in. Amade and Gilmour are too similar to play together, especially in games like this they are both are defensive minded midfielders, and Carey offered next to nothing alongside them. Ideally, we need pace or a proper No.10 to give us a focal point when teams drop deep.


The second half followed a similar pattern. We continued to struggle, with Morrison our only real threat, although even he didn’t offer a great deal of end product. Kearney coming on was the right decision, but the player coming off should have been Matty Todd. There were far too many basic individual errors with simple passes going astray, little pressure on the ball, and too many players unwilling to take on their man.


The positives are slim, but we are through and that’s about it. We lack pace and ideas when asked to break teams down. Marginal improvements will be needed if we want anything from Thistle next week.

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

The boos were probably that Todd stayed on.

Eh? Matty was pretty good today, the pick of our midfielders.
