Read in twitter that it doesnt look good. It's his hamstring that's away.

Ross Fisher has left to go the Hurlford, sore one! Another fan in the stand called this about 5/6 weeks ago!!

Are you feeling okay? That final statement is really unlike the Waugh we know and love.

8 points behind already, massive game on Saturday now.

We'll have 20 people at Hawick if we're lucky due to the 8pm kick-off.

Gavin McMillan was one of our best players on Saturday! I'd have him up front before Sludden. He's frustrating to watch.

We were rotten in the 2nd half. Everybody charging forward and forgetting to defend. Keep playing like that and it'll be a long season. We really ahouldve had 3 or 4 by half time!

We'll be okay as long as we can get 4 points against the other top 3 teams

Hopefully a strong start today. Send a message to the rest of the league today!

Ask on the forum, surely someone will know the answer.

Nah, Spartans are over-hyped

'What's that coming over the hill' has been tweeted by the Shire. Surely we haven't signed Rodgers! What a coup if that's the case

I would prefer if we changed things on Saturday so that we're fresh for Montrose on Tuesday. Great effort by everyone tonight and it's giving me a really good buzz for the season!

Aye, we're no so happy about that either. Especially when we can't post the team half an hour before the game.

Dimitri, nobody listens to the shite that sprays out of your mouth every time you post on here. Going by your logic then wouldn't we also be Kilmarnock minded? He was a player there for a few season after Rangers, or what about his loan to Everton? That must make Shire 'fans' glory hunters then, who would've known? Mon the Shire/Rangers/Kilmarnock/Everton/Any Ian Durrant XI.

If we were 'the rangers' then it would've caused a twitter storm and made the front page of the sun. Most people call us by the incorrect name (East Stirling) anyway.

The original lease was only meant to last for 5 years. I think it's now just rolling and we have to give notice by a certain date if we leave. Little Kerse won't be ready for some time, the plans have been approved for years and nothing has went ahead. Onto the game tonight, brilliant performance and the 3-1 scoreline completely flatters Stranraer. We put up a good fight and the fact that their keeper got MOTM shows that we didnt just have one or two chances. We battered them at the start of the second half and got suckerpunched right at the end. The 3rd goal was an absolute peach and we were even applauding the lad who scored. Based on what I've seen it's going to take a really good performance from a team in the LL to beat us, I just hope the boys can maintain the energy over the whole season.

I think you can write off the Motherwell and Rangers game, but I'd like to think that we'd give Stranraer a good game tomorrow. You've seen who Montrose and Annan have recruited and I fancy us to pick up at least 1 win from the 2 games. It's a long way for Montrose to travel midweek too! Newcastle Broon is spot on, there is a gulf between SPFL2 and LL, but the pyramid system could benefit LL clubs and start to close that gap.

That's upsetting. The Rangers game is nearly sold out already which is good!

Connor Hogg is likely to sign this week too.

That'll never happen when Mackin owns the ground. That was drunk chat in BTW. No way on earth that'll happen. We'll still be at stenny in 3/4 seasons, the whole point was basically that we'd move to stenny and then eventually die.....

He signed from a junior team in Cumbernauld, i had a look through the forum to see if they had a thread but got bored after about 5 pages haha

Yeah, 85% of the gate is split plus the tv rights i'd hope we'd make enough to pay our rent to Stenny and have a little pocket money left. Hopefully the Motherwell fans turn out in their masses too.

Connor Hogg played for the Shire tonight. Loads of previous issues off the field so hopefully he's dropped this 'bad boy' image.

I'm trying to see what we have/still need, so as things stand we have: Goalkeepers Darren Dolan Dean Shaw Defenders Ross Fisher Andy Grant Graeme MacGregor? Midfield Derek Ure Kris Faulds Adam Murray? Strikers David Grant Paul Sludden Jamie Glasgow Gavin McMillan Not too sure where McGregor or Murray will fit in, looks like we're sorted for strikers though!
