Although our record at the Rock against Elgin has been pretty good, this will be a close encounter according to league positions and the fact that they comfortably beat us at their place earlier this season. I'm assuming most Dumbarton fans will be eager to see some of our new players in action and since we haven't played at home in bloody ages, perhaps the attendance will be decent.
The one main concern however, is the bloody weather. It's been raining forever here with no end in sight and we really don't need another postponement at this stage.
However here's hoping for a good win and incidentally, what do Sons fans think will be the starting 11?

Elgin Match Is Doubtful
If the weather forecast is accurate for tomorrow and Saturday, I'd be making alternative plans. Pitch is very, very wet.
But if it goes ahead, try this :
Crawford (if fit)
Potter, Evans, Canning, Brittain
Geggan, Orrstrum, Russell
McPhee
Mackie and Moore

I hope that if the pitch is wet, and the weather gets worse before then, tgher perhaps our good drainage can help the game get the go-ahead.
If the game is on, I'm really looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to seeing our new signings, and in particular, Moore.
My only concern regarding the new signings is that I hope McPhee isn't sacrificed for Moore. The Bee has been excellent in recent weeks, and him and Moore could forge a good partnership I feel.
I'll be a tough game, but one that, (for the first time in a long while
), I'm confident we can win.

Sensible stuff from Dumbarton if we are making an early decision. Weather up in Elgin not too bad for now but forecast suggests tough travelling conditions. I think we would want to avoid the situation that elgin put albion rovers in a few weeks back when it was all last minute. I cant make it down anyway as Im working but an early postponement would make sense.

Doent look like the game is officially off. Its not raining this morning and it is very windy, maybe the wind will help shift some of the rain off the park?

I hope so, but if it's looking dodge it should be called off tonight, Elgin is too far to travel from if the game is in doubt. Arbroath was far enough!

Elgin City Match Preview
Pitch is dry this morning - compared to yesterday - but it's the afternoon forecast that we need to worry about.
Any doubt - any doubt at all, to be fair to Elgin, we should call it off. Let's hope though that we do get a game.
The answer is yes, so, what is the question?

It might, but it will only make room for the snow that's forecast.

Your list of new signings set to play tomorrow looks quite impressive, im not too confident at getting a result, our record at your place is terrible.

Our own bandwagon needs major repairs and may not pass its MOT
Supporting Arbroath = the best of all possible worlds. Gayfield Park = stairway to heaven. The team and fans = the worst in the league, apart from all the others. Everything is rosy in our garden

Ye have little faith!
Crawford
Geggan Lennon Evans Brittain
Orrstrum Canning Russell
McPhee Moore McNaught.
Agree about Mackie coming on, i went for Russell instead of Pooter cause hes more attacking and i reckon we will win 6-0 with Orrstrum getting all six.

It's interesting and indeed refreshing that many of us now expect the team to line up with 3 up front. F**k the defensive mentality of messrs Martin and McCabe. B)

Oops, forgot about Lennon. Would find it hard to bin big Grant though. He was outstanding at Stranraer and Canning for me is an excellent sweeper, so I wouldn't play him in midfield - McCabe tried this but it didn't work.
As much as Nuggsy did well at Stair Park, I'd still go with Mackie, McPhee and Moore. And Russell on the left to give some balance.
I'll stick with my team, but if Lennon played and either Evans or Canning is relegated to the bench, it wouldn't make that much difference.
The answer is yes, so, what is the question?

I agree here, after nuggsys performance against stranrer, and the fact he set up the winner against rangers on monday and scored against glenafton on tuesday surely he must get a start, surely the players would be shocked to see the motm from the previous game dropped, what guarentee of a starting place do u have if this happens !!!
And somewhere in the distance, the gambler he broke even !!
