Is 2 hours enough time to leave Greenock, drive to Cowden, park and get into the ground?

am I wasting my time writing for the match day programme or is it you just don't trust me?

[Swampy]

It's that I don't have a programme

Actually come to think of it, I think my dad got one... I'll ask him.

Have to disagree, after this game there are still 90 points up for grabs for both teams!! If I remember correctly we lost at Firhill by 3-0 and still not only got the better of Thistle, we also finished well ahead of them. Not only that, over the season did we not match Gretna in head to head games, being one of only two teams to beat them?

Losing to Thistle was annoying but acceptable because they were losing games as well. Gretna were cruising and looked at that stage as though they could go through the league unbeaten. My point was that, by the time we had got to grips with Gretna, the league championship was over. We played them five times last year and won 2 drew 1 lost 2. Unfortunately the two we lost were the first two league matches and that put them out of sight.

I just think if we win on Saturday then we will have opened a gap which its hard to close because of the dog eat dog nature of this league where most teams can beat most other teams on a good day.

Not really as the traffic at the Forth Road Bridge can be unpredictable. I would leave longer, if you arrive early you can go for a beer at Wee Jimmies or the Supporters Bar. Best place to park is at the Leisure Centre behind Central Park.

Nach it should be more than enough although check for delays on the m8 near Glasgow Airport, I personally (as you can see from my article in the programme If your Dad had one) would suggest you don't go via the Forth Rd Bridge but actually go over the Kincardine Bridge. Total distance from Greenock should be around 68.5 miles and the traveling time is estimated at 1.5 hrs (I did this journey easily in about 1hr 15 mins before).

I also plugged Wee Jimmies and the Supporters Bar in the programme for a beer or two.

Whats the wheelchair bit at the ground like? I am calling them on Wed but just wanted your views.

Plenty - but don't pay over the Forth Road bridge - use the Kincardine Bridge instead as though you were going to Kirkcaldy. Cowdenbeath turn-off is clear to see.

Mon the Cowden, get promotion and totally fcuk up this SPL2 idea

Getting off topic here but do Cowden fans know if there's a Stock Car meet on Saturday night? I haven't been to watch Stock Car racing but seeing as I'm planning to go to the game in the afternoon, I may go to watch the racing at night if it's on.

The stock car fans start coming in as soon as the game is ended so just go to the new stand for the best view.

No way. The Townies are at home to Kilie, the parking will be a shambles and it might also take you 30mins to get through the turnstiles - if you bring 800 fans as you claim.

On the other hand, if you bring 400 fans it will be a breeze and the good news is that (unlike your rip-off stadium) admission is a tenner to all parts of the ground and the seats dont damage your knees for life. Even the programme is only a quid.

Looking forward to a great game as we will attack for 90 minutes no matter if we go 3-0 up or 3-0 down.

[Deco]

I am really looking forward to this encounter on Saturday, it should be very entertaining with two teams who are willing to attack and play good football.

It will be interesting to see how Cowdenbeath fare against us this time - at Cappielow last Tuesday they were hot and cold on occasions, but definitely have signs of being a threat this season.

I fear if they play to their full potential and we have an off day then things could go pear-shaped for us, hopefully, however, I am wrong.

I have predicted 2-2, I can see there being a number of goals on Saturday.

Come on Morton.

You often find prices are cheaper in the third world.
