Stranraer V Rovers

[Bold Rover]

I also missed yesterday. Last week against Stenny, in the first half, I thought: we're probably watching the ninth and tenth best teams in the division. Our second half performance meant I left with a bit more optimism but yesterday's result makes me feel that I may have been correct the first time.

Not good then eh? What's happened to young Callum Ferguson? Is he injured at the moment?

 

Ferguson is injured.

Best performance of the season so far ( first half especially ) a huge improvement and praise to the manager for making the much needed changes. Pass marks to all yesterday and the team looked up for it from the start, what a difference to hear players shouting encouragement to each other and playing at a higher tempo with a desire to put in tackles and win possession.( this was missing in previous league games at stair park this season )

 Very impressed with Morena,Turner,Craig Thomson and the lad Watt hope they can retain their places for next week as the more they play together the better , also great to see a much better performance from Gibson and with Bell,Dick and Robertson playing well the future looks bright. A very enjoyable game with Rovers playing their part but we were too strong for them and a home win was never in doubt. With Nade out injured I felt that the release of Kemp without a replacement has left us a bit short up front , Malcolm and McGuigan put in a decent shift and perhaps the heat took its toll on the team towards the end. Barron had another faultless game and is a quality player that I hope can get over his injury issues as he deserves a run in the team.

Think I've mentioned everyone except our keeper who had another first class game with a few excellent saves with one that he tipped onto the bar even had their keeper applauding .

so top marks all round and hopefully the start of a winning run ,

That was David Barrons last game of being a trialist. Hopefully he signs. Robertson also played better at centre half. He was having a poor season at right back. Gibson was a constant menace and because he played higher up the pitch his crosses were more effective.
