Not silly at all, ask any manager and they'll tell you the same. Had we taken our chances we would have won the game comfortably, what is so hard to understand about that?

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but even a full strength team as you put it might have gottten the same result or worse, it's called cup football, it happens.

I remember being at Forthbank late 90s when we were actually knocked out the Scottish cup by Stirling, a team which contained the great Russell Latapy no less.

I wish all the would be coaches amongst you would realise you might think you could have picked a better team, but the reality is you more than likely wouldn't.

Unless you are a qualified coach of course, but even that would guarantee nothing.

Sorry but after they enqualised we should have battered them. One change that made no difference in real terms and=d persisted with one striker when in other pre season games we looked completely different when two were on the park. Heck’s either underestimated Stirling’s defensive qualities or his players capabilities. Either way he got it wrong and stuck with it. Hope he learns from it.

Agree, crap set up from the start and we paid the price for his failure to spot and change it when it wasn't working!

Think we’d all agree, best performance so far has been the second half against the Pars. I believe the only time we have used two up front together.

This is what gets me to be honest.Surely everybody agrees that in these type of games you pick your best side,win the game quickly and then make your changes to give players a run out from a position of strength with the pressure off.I really don’t understand the thinking behind last Saturday.The comment from the manager that all away Cup ties are difficult was just silly I thought.

When will younger lads ever get a start if it isn't league cup ties Vs part time league 2 sides. We didn't play well but 2 absolute sitters missed first half stopped an easy win regardless.

Why do some folk continually make these sort of posts on football fans message boards?

Because they've coached at Barcelona, obviously. See also "have you any experience in running a football club? No? Well you can't have an opinion on the running of a football club!"


You don't need to specialise in sewerage to know a ***** when you see one.

Wasn't it only one youngster got a start on Saturday?Still think we should have totally overpowered them.I see the Edinburgh City boss is saying that part time clubs have a job getting a team together at this time of the season.One more reason for saying that was an easy game for us and shouldn't have been difficult in the slightest.

The same as folk continually posting to criticise i suppose.
