Stranraer sit 2 places and 5 points above us in the table. This is built on their home record as they've not yet won away from Stair Park.
I predict a 2-1 win for Rovers and am confident Charlie Reilly will bag at least one of them.

Tricky one to predict. Have read their defence can be leaky. Also frequently down to 10 men,not that it is an advantage to us it seems. Going for a dour 1-1

Two weeks and six points.
Itll be 2 - 1 rovers and hopefully a dominant performance which we can built from again.

Another tough home match tomorrow.
However, in view of our current excellent form & the fact David confirms they haven't won away all season it has to be a solid 3-1 victory to us!

Roy, why did you mention that Stranraer had not won away from home? You just know.....
I am going for 5-0 home win, it has to happen one of these times.

Tricky one this. The Blues will be confident following their win against big spending Stenny- let’s hope they are over confident. Rovers need to build on last week’s win- 2 wins in a row could really kick start our season. 3-2 Rovers.
Any injury news on Lewis Kidd?

Half time & we've had 8 shots to their 4. Charlie Reilly on fire. We can do ourselves a lot of good winning now, as we'd move up to 7th place & distance ourselves from Forfar. Wishful thinking? We'll see.

Someone tell the PA to speak into that mic!
Good game management at the end. Another solid performance and 3 points!
What was the crowd today?

Whoooopeeee! We ARE 7th now! It's inch by inch and there's a long, long way to go but we are slowly fighting our way out of trouble. Stranraer must be looking over their shoulders now. I look forward to what you guys who were there have to say. Charlie's penalty miss? Must have been a big disappointment but we haven't lost anything and he seems to have contributed hugely to this match. AR ARF ...ARFC OK!!

Great match and result. Should have had at least four penalties during this match. End to end stuff and could've went either way to be honest. Penalty was hit well and Stranraer keeper guessed the right way. Good save. Charlie gave 100% and deserved a few goals. Sonkar was immense and a stalward for the team in defence. Great momentum building and Noone thinks of Rovers as an easy team now. Five matches undefeated. Wow. Great crowd today too.
Onwards and upwards. Tough match next week as Stirling Uni are flying in Lowland League.
