The boy Byrne at pars is pretty highly rated by them. Played with him at the pars 2 years ago and was some player then. Any updates on how he played/playing? Wish i knew about this before would of went over

[FranckSuzy]

Ht 1-1

[FranckSuzy]

'Antell has made a couple of great saves in the match. Not a lot happening up front for us so far, although Handling has scored'.

Sorry, no idea but Nikki or Billy might be able to help once back?

[FranckSuzy]

'Handling had an effort which hit the underside of the bar but couldn't see if it went over the line. The Pars managed to clear the danger'.

[FranckSuzy]

'Dunfermline scored from a corner, a good header which beat a diving Antell. Kuqi is doing a great job talking to the youngsters'.

[FranckSuzy]

'Taiwo has some good touches and can handle a tackle both by him and against him'.

[FranckSuzy]

'Taiwo looks to run box to box, has a good eye for opposition runs and can quickly close them down'.

Tweeted Billy and this is his reply 'from the Pars video analyst. The lad is breaking into the 1st team, has a very bright future'. :aok:

[FranckSuzy]

'Impressed more each time I see Stanton. Great quick feet'.

'Handling inches wide after Caldwell's original shot saved'.

[FranckSuzy]

'Pars #8 booked for diving in the box'.

[FranckSuzy]

'Kuqi curler heading into top corner clawed away by keeper. Great save'.

[Saorsa]

'Kuqi curler heading into top corner clawed away by keeper. Great save'.I was just going tae ask if there was any mention of him and how he was doing, cheers.

[FranckSuzy]

'Fantastic save again from the Pars keeper to deny Handling'.

How old's Crawford Baptie now?

[FranckSuzy]

'Handling fires way over after neat play with Caldwell'.

[Jonnyboy]

Good point Speedy my son. Also concerned to see Colin Grant, Colin Harris and Lex Gold on the bench :greengrin

What about Stanton? :shocked:

[Jonnyboy]

What about Stanton? :shocked:

Even at his grand old age of 68 he'd be the best player on the park :greengrin

[HoboHarry]

You guys must all be youngsters. Eric Stevenson just got into the hall of fame and I bet Jim Black missed playing alongside John Blackley....

[FranckSuzy]

'Dargo having a good game for Dunfermline. Working our young defence'.

'Pars effort just wide. 10 to go'.

I'll take the age reference as a compliment :greengrin:aok:

[Speedway]

I'm more concerned about Gary Caldwell being deployed upfront tonight.

only thawed out by about 11am :greengrin

taiwo played ok in parts, he didnt look match sharp, likes committing tackles or should i call them fouls. he played with stevenson in midfield and to be honest the pair of them are very similar in the style of football they play. will be good to see him play in the first team in a few weeks

as for kuqi, i wouldnt even call him a professional footballer! lazy, has a poor first touch and does nothing to help the younger players play and progess. yes he talks to the players during the game but imo he is effecting the way caldwell and handling play as a partnership up front

Didnae think Kuqi was that bad, tbh. Still doesn't look to be anywhere near the first team, mind, but the same probably goes for Taiwo, who was tidy enough but didn't impose himself on the game really. I do like the look of Handling. Stanton too. If we are looking for the wee bit of guile in the final third, they certainly looked the most likely candidates last night.
