Jim has picked up the L2 manager of the month award for December - some turn around!

Well deserved. Hopefully we can make it more than a one horse race and make it interesting until the end of the season. Jim got his tactics spot on when you played us at LP but hopefully we'll get it right next time. At this time of the season yellow card totals start kicking in and some loan players return to their 'home' clubs* other changes happen, so the second half of the season often sees rapid climbers and rapid fallers in league positions.

* We've lost Ballantyne and Binos have lost Morrison for instance.

Spot on, although our discipline has been surprisingly good this season and Jim has avoided loan players this season which seems to have been a great idea. Although we are always described as physical there hasn't been that many bookings this season so hopefully we can keep a coherent 11 for the run in.

Wullie Gibson in Team Of The Week again, season shaping up nicely after an uncertain start emoji135.png‍♂️

Well deserved too. It looks like a straight choice between him and Rory for Peterhead FC player of the year.

How come Paul Cairney hasn’t featured much for you guys? Is he injured or just out of favour? 
Hows Greg Fleming performed? 

Cairney isn't exactly built for speed, put it that way.
Fleming has been a massive improvement over Smith, you're not expecting to concede every time the ball goes near him.

Cairney seems to carried injuries since the start of the season, still think if we can have him reasonably fit he could make a huge difference second half of the league. Greg Flemming has done well & has pulled off a few great saves when required.

Out of favour lol more out of shape, even if he could last a 45 be worth keeping but will probably go if someone wants to take him off the wage bill.

Greg Fleming however is a model professional and by far the best keeper in this league, I would guess teams at a higher level will be sniffing around should his form continue.

Ayr's love -to-hate figure like Rory and Greig way too good for this league and so his biggest job is avoiding the hammer throwers injuring him !!!!

Paul Cairney had a FT deal on the table with us if he could shred a few pounds. Sadly that never happend. 

Not sadly for everyone....

I've always thought you were a little unlucky last season as had been challenging for top half playoffs for a few seasons to get into the championship. Could potentially see you guys jumping two leagues in two seasons as Brechin are nothing to be scared of (assuming both Raith and/or Ayr come up).

My money would be on you for league title for league one next season.

Rory McAllister is a player who should be in the Championship at least
