Match Thread East Fife v Rangers - 15:00 Sunday - BT Sport

[lumbear1872]

They folk on the hill must be freezing

 

[bilkobear]

That tackle was totally out of control two feet and one high.

 

[Seaside Blue]

Stewart,Kamara,Halliday,Docherty all failing to seize their chance. Poor.

 

[loyallancashire]

Please tell me they haven't put a steward with the boys on the hill.

 

[frankieboy]

I forgot we’re all supposed to look the other way when Halliday makes mistakes because he’s one of us

Not as much consternation when Aribo,Docherty or Kamara makes a mistake

 

[BODiE]

Dundee beating the sheep

 

[Davieblue1977]

Dundee beating aberdeen

O dear Derek nearing the exit door

 

[HenningBerg]

Aribo is incredible

 

[Clay Davis]

As soon as we get a second Aribo has to come off

 

[Govanfront]

That pitch is horrendous. It's like a badly fitted carpet.

 

[dh1963]

Looks like 11 changes on Thursday going by this.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Halliday, Kamara, Docherty, Stewart. Any one of them could be substituted.

Not good enough from them today.

 

[giogaddi]

I doubt anyone will be in a rush to watch this back.

 

[Red_White_Blue]

Craggan just said he thinks Gerrard will be reasonably pleased with the first half.........I doubt it!

 

[Danger Zone]

Not as much consternation when Aribo or Kamara makes a mistake

Probably because they hadn’t made as many mistakes buddy

 

[greggakd]

Then why post it at all then?

Cause most people can sense a bit of a joke that constantly gets used against us when they read it, or was my lack of emoji use too difficult for you to spot it.

 

[Boab4]

Get Halliday to %^*&

 

[SDF]

LB needs sorted pronto.

Halliday has been bloody awful today.

 

[GR6Ger]

If the worst came to the worst, how would Katic fare at LB as Helander looks very comfortable in the middle of the defense.

Fucking stop it

 

[DJ Blue]

Halliday - cmon concentrate

 

[VMS]

Halliday having a nightmare

 

[cloodie]

Halliday is having a nightmare here

 

[monkey magic]

This is unprofessional today. East Fife are running on adrenalin, the only thing keeping them in this game. A second Rangers goal would have killed this game stone dead.

 

[CoulibalyLoyal]

HT. - sub Halliday

 

[CaptainObjective]

Halliday not doing himself any favours here.

 

[marvsbeliever]

It’s as if the pitch has a “nap” I think that’s the word and some times the ball holds up and sometimes it runs depending what way the fibres lie. Shite surface

 

[BODiE]

Josh McPake going on loan to Dundee according to the commentator

 

[Corkie]

The second string aren’t really taking their chance so far. They’ll need to step up big time in the second half to make any sort of impression on the gaffer

The state of the playing surface is not helping

 

[RichF]

Few players here have a chance to really put a claim in here for playing bigger games but just not taking it.

Halliday and Stewart being the biggest two.

 

[Stoneywoodloyal]

Andy Halliday being shown up here big time, dreadful performance so far.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Barišić is better than Halliday.

We've got a couple of weeks to sign a left back.

 

[Britannia89]

Halliday is fucking brutal.

 

[Boab4]

If the worst came to the worst, how would Katic fare at LB as Helander looks very comfortable in the middle of the defense.

Wow

 

[Resarf]

Get Halliday hooked at half time

 

[Guyzer34]

Surely andy halliday is the first sub at halftime, been so poor

 

[BobbyShearer]

The second string aren’t really taking their chance so far. They’ll need to step up big time in the second half to make any sort of impression on the gaffer

I want him to play this carefully though.
We know from last season and prior to this game how much he values players showing up and making selection problems for him.

It’s far too early in the season for squad harmony to turn up post match and empty them to the media.

 

[StansgRFC]

I suspect he meant tot up? But I'm RTV Loyal

Necessity I’m afraid but feel fûcking ashamed of myself.

 

[G74Bear]

Like the look of Polster. Big Aribo flawless, ball winner in the middle.

 

[lumbear1872]

Jeezo Andy.

 

[Jaws II]

Some are too relaxed on the pitch so far and about 4 others not really taking their chance.

The pitch is catching a lot of them out.

However Halliday is having a stinker.

 

[Ariboariboaribo]

Only Aribo, Defoe, the 2 CBs & Jones pass marks so far

 

[scooter70]

If some of these players were giving Gerrard “glares” etc for being left out then some have got a cheek

Dreadful first half from so many of them

 

[MSF]

Aribo & Jones the only players that are trying to make things happen.

 

[JD1872]

Defoe and Aribo have shown their quality

Helander, Jones and Edmundson have been decent.

Difficult conditions but too many others looking like not taking the chance they’ve been given

 

[BuffaloSoldier19]

Halliday has been absolutely terrible. Jesus.

Kamara needing hooked too.

 

[whitbybear45]

East Fife will tire in the second half.Adrenaline only lasts so long and then we will pick them apart.

 

[Gazzaflag]

New left back is a priority

 

[Coisty09]

Halliday has found this difficult.
The wind is strong.

 

[millar2318]

Cause most people can sense a bit of a joke that constantly gets used against us when they read it, or was my lack of emoji use too difficult for you to spot it.

Aye ok then.

 

[bornabluenose]

Our left back area is rapidly becoming a glaring flaw in the team.

I feel really sorry for the left sided centre back as he is not only constantly fighting for his place in the team but must have to have half an eye on somebody else’s position.

Glaring.
