Doidge and Kamberi? These are our strikers?
Cripes.
Who knows? Because the manager certainly doesnt. Play a settled 11 and stick to it ffs.
Needs to go 2 up front with Allan in behind
I’m not in the Hecky out campaign at all but if his reaction to that yesterday is to put Maxwell in for Rocky then I might just join it. Unless you’re talking about putting Maxwell LB then he won’t be any worse I suppose.
I’d go

I've no problem with a change of goalie for the League Cup, as long as Rocky is back against St Johnstone.
Porteous needs to get up to speed as quickly as possible - as do our first choice full-backs but it would be foolish to rush Stevenson back, even though he is near superhuman.
I don't really get the clamour for two up top when almost everyone is saying (perhaps unfairly) that all three of our strikers are rubbish...
A goal or two against Morton might do wonders for confidence but is that a long term solution for the season? I don't think so.
Middleton will probably get chucked straight in, although I don't think he's featured at all this season.
This might not be the game for it but yesterday was a glaring case for the addition of a hardened defensive midfielder

or (if Middleton isn't ready)

I'd just like to see Doidge and Flo upfront as a 2 for the next few games.
Whatever happens behind that I'm not too fussed about as there are a limited number of options as it stands anyway - none ridiculously worse/better (so long as we play Allan).
Gray has had 0 minutes of game time since last season.
Was chucked in at the deep end yesterday due to desperation and he’s now ready to start ?
We need to ease the guy back so he can play regularly.
The problem is we have limited options at right and left back.
Would go 3-5-2

Hibs said yesterday Stevenson was in the match day squad so I don’t think he’s far away.
Wouldn’t be surprised to see him play some part on Saturday with a view to him starting against St Johnstone.

I'm aware that some of these are nominally injured, but I'm just going on the principle, that, with the exception of starting Allan and Rocky, we should just do the opposite of whatever it was we did on Sunday.
Was Allan subbed yesterday for a injury ? if so is it bad
For all the posters who have Mallan in their team for the Morton match, he’s serving a one game ban, for 2 bookings in the Group stages

Going on last season when Rocky or Bogdan make a mistake the other got a chance, don’t get me wrong I think Rocky is a great keeper but he should have done better in 2 or 3 of the goals
After yesterday I genuinely have no idea who I’d play or even what system I’d play.
Jackson and Kamberi come back in to the team. Allan stays in the team. Other than that, nobody can complain if they’re not in the side.
Good even if he wasnt suspended he should be nowhere near the team after his gutless performance yesterday...am sick fed up of his anonymous performances tbh apart from the odd free kick (and even they seem like a distant memory these days) he is contributing the square root of naff all. Had he been a Hecky signing I'm willing to guess hed be getting dogs abuse the same as the likes of Doidge and Newell are receiving on here currently.

People keep mentioning Middleton but the guy hasn't even signed yet and it's all gone quiet. For what its worth I'd be happy if we signed him

James certainly won't play he is injured and out for a few weeks. Stevenson ain't fully fit as far as I know and Porteous I suspect won't be considered either as he isn't match fit either. I think Slivka is still carrying a knock too as he wasn't put on at Ibrox. Middleton hasn't signed yet.
Stevenson was being considered for Ibrox squad so with another week could be fit. Middleton will be announced before Sat and will be available. Porteous, not match fit as you say, but will only get so by playing games and ideally v so-called lesser opposition - wouldn't be a risk. As for James, injury reported as not as bad a first thought and announced he will only be out for two weeks, that was a fortnight ago. In any case, I am not saying that Hecky will play that team/ formation. It is what I would play.
Right, with you! If you were the manager you'll know what progress all the injured players are making. Thanks for the information about James but I thought it was the other way round - his injury was worse than initially thought. It was on the 3rd of August he was injured against St.Mirren! Can you share where you got all this info. from? I never read anywhere about Stevenson being considered for Ibrox. If Middleton is signed before Saturday will he be thrown in at the deep end? Is he match sharp? Morton are as you say are so called lesser opposition but our recent record against such sides is not good. It is a huge game for the management and club now. :agree:
Gray for Mackie (Whittaker to left back).
Jackson for McGregor.
If Porteous was fit enough, him for Hanlon but not worth risking him.
Slivka for Mallan.
Middleton for Newell.
Kamberi for Doidge.
