Quick summary of players in for this season that effect the starting lineup. Strain is back on loan at right back. Soutar joins on loan to start in left mid. Field joins as backup striker to Kitson and Walker. Hutchinson joins to partner McLoughlin in defence. And somehow, that has made the world of difference. 4-0 Motherwell - Kitson 2, Johnson, Walker 6-0 East Fife (League Cup) - Soutar, Molloy, Kitson, Walker 2, Wood 4-1 Clyde - Walker 2, Field 2 Kitson takes a nasty tumble during the Clyde game and has damaged his hip... 2-4 months out and has been to see a specialist. Disaster!!! Field will take his place in the mean time but I doubt he has the influence and creativity Capt Kitson had. Time to look for a loanee striker. The missing figure of Kitson is evident in game vs East Fife (this time in Challenge Cup) 0-0 at full time, and it takes a 122nd minute goal from Louis to steal the win in extra time after Chapman had saved a penalty from East Fife. Keeperb! :D 1-0 Dundee - Walker A great victory against the recently relegated side but definetly feeling absense of a Kitson. 3 league games. 3 wins. 9 goals. SPL anyone? |
