Don’t really know what to make from last nights performance against Stenny at Stair Pk.Was it a good point?or 2 points dropped?Got to say fancied us to beat the warriors but they put in a battling performance.One or two talking points,a lino got injured,two local boys on the bench and a crowd of 219,the latter I’m not surprised at,although going by FB some seem to be.I was talking to Dof Stuart Millar recently and he can remember 200 odd at a midweek game when him and Neil were at the helm,and we were doing really well at that point.I looked up an attendance in 2012 when Stranraer played Alloa in midweek when both teams were doing pretty well,the figures that night were 225,so it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to work out 219 represents a drop of 6 from 225.The game wasn’t the most attractive 3rd bottom v bottom and with the Blues playing Raith at the weekend maybe punters were holding off till Saturday,hopefully another 100 or so on Saturday.This brings me nicely onto the aforementioned game.Probably the most disappointing team in League 1 this season,full time Raith Rovers are struggling once again in this League.They may have a lovely new all weather pitch,but there team is not so lovely.I’ll echo what I’ve said previously,they remind me so much of Dunfermline in this League several years ago,and the frightening thing for their supporters is that word on the street says they will go part time if promotion does not come this time around,worrying times for the Fife club.The blues can put another nail in the coffin of the away team on Saturday with 3 points.The games between the pair have been very close this term and expect another close one on Saturday.No word of any injuries for Stranraer last night so you would think the gaffer will go with same 11 which beat Brechin and drew with Stenny,but Jao Victoria might want to prove a point against his old employers.As for Rovers don’t think there as good without Lewis Vaughan and he’s out for the season,but Nisbett up front is quite a handful and Liam Buchanan has been scoring against us for about 40 years.So the stage is set,as usual a very hard game but one I greet with confidenceš¤«And finally I’d like to start with a Chimney joke,I’ve got a stack of them.The first one is on the houseš⚽️
Thought it was a fair result Brian but not a good one for us.
ReplyDeleteProbably Alex,but that point might be vital come May
