I bet you i get more right than you
Mids to beat dfs
Dbt to beat annan
Stranraer to beat creetown
Crichton to beat Saints
Threave to beat weakened Niths team
Wigtown to draw with Newton

I'd have to agree with these predictions more than DG7's... Although i expect newton stewart to win.

[DG7]

Well Mr Scoop. We shall see.

I'm risking it a bit with some of my predictions and I know that Dumfries, Annan and Wigtown could well let me down. Also not too confident of Saints beating Crichton, but I think it may all just come together.

Let's see....

Tomorrow we can add up how many we each got right.

May the best man win, unless it is you Scoop

thanks tartan a few good games then tonight do you think they will all go ahead it will be dark by the time the 6.30 games are finished

At the Crichton game on Monday night the ref gave the players a 5 minute break at half time. The light was fading by the time the game was finished. They just managed to get the penalties taken before it was too dark! These are league games so shouldn't be as much of a problem, although I still think it's too early to be playing midweek games without lights. Needs must I suppose!

Saints game was pretty crazy although a harsh result on Saints who played at least 3 quarters off the match with 10 men. Game should have been called off earlier was pretty dark. 2 from Beattie i think and Luvvie for Saints

Please tell me he is a Partick fan?

Was dark because ref let Saints go to the changing rooms at half time................Stuart Clingan insisted on a 2 min on park turn around on Monday............ok pens were taken in near dark but if you insist on half 6 kick offs when you know it is dark at 8 you have to do something............Surely no one who watched the whole game can honestly say saints were unlucky???????? Sean was sent off rightly and between Noggin and Beattie and a couple of True chances it could have been lots........grant you Chambers should have scored into an open goal but on the balance c'mon!!

Crichtons 1st, saints goal & crichtons winner we're all in the dark, so cant complain..........

[tartanalan1979]

If Crichton's finishing had been better then they should've had the game finished a lot earlier, but for the majority of the second half Saints were well in the game and created plenty of chances and their battling deserved a point.

The referee was attrocious, I wouldn't say he was biassed to either side just an all round bad performance. I agree that the Saints players shouldn't have gone in at half time but surely that is down to the referee to inform both sets of players what his intended half time break is going to be?

Sean deserved to be sent off, but when Tommy Muirhead brought down the Abbey Vale boy on Saturday in the box when he was clean through it shows the difference in refereeing interpretation!

Based on last night's performance I don't think Crichton will be able to keep up with Threave and Stranraer in the title race, but credit to them for how far they have come this season.
