I would'nt be surprised if this one ended 10 all

After the last few matches, anything is possible. We're leaking them in and scoring for fun when we want to.

[cityfan]

Even with our strongest defence we leak goals all over the place and on Saturday we are missing 2 of them through suspension, so there should be plenty of goals.

[come on shire]

The amount of goals that we are conceeding is grossly unacceptable. This isn't like previous seasons where we had players who wouldn't even get a game for a troop of girl guides. We have better players all over the park who were showing it earlier in the season.

Against Albion Rovers we scored 4 goals and still got beat. Against Stranraer we couldn't cope with a last second sucker punch.

I think that we're going to need to put a bricklayer in the starting 11 for going to Ibrox. If we can't match Scott Gemmill then how do we cope with Cousin or Darcheville.

Tomorrow's match against Elgin then Tuesday's match away to Dumbarton are games we need 6 points from. Absolutely must win. Then again, after witnessing previous seasons must win games I shudder at the prospect.

Oh dear.

now I've said in the last 2 months, I will be going to the next game and haven't turned up. But my dad kindly offered to babysit tomorrow so I can finally get to a game!!!!! So we better win, I wont settle for anything less

If i give you a lift down.

"Come on Shire", When was the last time you were actually at a game? Just curious, you know?

I heard that Elgin have 2~3 players suspended/out, i would just urge the Elgin fans not to think it will be the same after we came up.

Saying that, the majority of them should be on their way down!

He looked a safe goalkeeper to be honest, wasn't too busy but did what he had to. Didn't see the Elgin goal but i heard it was a few deflections on it.

Back to the game. Both teams started off brightly, Brand smacking the post with full force. However Elgin nipped the first goal in, and 'shire responded the next minute. 1-1 at half time, fair result.

After the second half, Shire looked more alive early on, and got repaid with another Andy Brand goal, who was MotM to be honest, had a blinder. Elgin finally woke up, and started forcing the Shire back, but the match was settled after Brand got his hat trick with a brilliant solo effort if i remember correctly.

Elgin may feel a bit robbed, who hit the post in the second half (Zannder?) and a screamer of a 30 yard shot replying off the bottom of the bar and back out, but Shire looked a lot more comfortable after the 2nd goal, and to be honest it's just what we needed.

How many Elgin fans made the trip? I honestly counted about 10 and no more in the stand
