With the signings you boys are making make that 5 seasons in this bloody abyss,nae luck.

Ando lost his form completely after the New year last season and surprised Raith have taken him,as for Victoria played okay at times but nothing out of the ordinary.

Really strange one this.His form tailed off big time last season for Stranraer and was even dropped at one point,looking like his best days were behind him,don't think many Stranraer fans will be fussed he's left.

As I said in a previous post if Queens couldn't beat Montrose over 2 legs they didn't deserve to be anywhere near the Championship.The Angus club are workmanlike but to be honest not a lot between them in 4th in League 1 than Stranraer in 8th,in fact if Easy Fife hadn't imploded,it would have been them in the play offs,if I had been a betting man I would have lumped on Queens on Saturday.The final should be won by Queens as well,Nisbet is a danger but can honestly see Queens winning both legs.My own team beat Raith up at Starks only last month,plus they are not very good away from home,looks like Queens will escape this time.

True but we had just too many missing, Super star KT wasn't playing for starters

A game which meant absolutely nothing to Stranraer and it showed.Human nature I suppose to down tools after the job is done.No offence to Airdrie but they couldn't have hand picked a better last 2 games ie Arbroath speculating for next season and Stranraer with 6 or 7 out and on the beach just wanting the season to end.We played 3 kids from our South of Scotland reserves and they all showed good confidence,the boy McColm with a nice shot and turn well saved by the diamonds keeper. Not a game which live long in the memory box.

Just had to be nosey and see how Dumfries is handling this relegation scenario.Got to be honest love to see Queens in League 1 next season for purely financial reasons,a couple of derbys at Stair pk and the new year fixture.Although early season I forecast Queens would struggle after watching our game against you in July and after Harkin left was convinced you would be in the bottom 3.Not really sold on Naysmith and so it's proved.For what it's worth if you land in the PO against Montrose you should win,they are workmanlike but if you can't beat them you deserve to be in League 1.The problem will come in the final and it might be written in the stars that John Baird and Dale Hilson will come back to haunt there former club,providing Forfar beat Raith.I'll be keeping a close eye on proceedings at Palmerston while watching a dead rubber at Stair park.Just can't bring it to myself to wish you all the best,but Queens fans must be really nervous.

Thankfully this is an absolute dead rubber for the blues as we are decimated with injuries etc,the bench will probably be full of kids from the South of Scotland League,if not we will have 2 on the bench,a Keeper and one other.Midfielder Kyle Turner is suspended,Jao Victoria can't play and 4 or 5 first team squad are injured.The small squad now coming home to roost.But we finish 8th no matter what happens on Saturday,so basically apart from beating Airdrie for the first time this season and good to go out on a win cliche that's it for Stranraer.We continue to punch above our weight and with budget restraints it will continue for the foreseeable future,but have every faith in our Manager to keep us in League one for that future.

Yip Cigars are out tomorrow and probably Jao Victoria and Kyle Turner's last game for the club,Jao is unavailable next Saturday against his parent club Airdrie and K T is suspended next week,and fully expect KT to move up a League or 2 next season.The blues have won there last 3 and are playing well,but Dumbarton have Dom T who can change a game,haven't a clue how this will go,but as far as Stranraer FC are concerned it's job done for the season and with the smallest budget in this league,quite an achievement.

Brilliant midfielder and could possibly be in Tommy Wright's plans for next season.Has struck up a great partnership with Kyle Turner son of Saints legend Tommy and we'll miss both big time next season.

Take these with a pinch of salt at times but good to see Kyle Turner getting mentioned in dispatches,I've been banging the drum about KT for the past 3 seasons and I'm resigned to the fact he'll move on the during the summer,if he follows in the footsteps of his old man Tommy,the kid is going to have a great career.Just don't get Hilson in these teams,I've watched Stranraer 4 times against Forfar this season and Baird makes Forfar tick,to be honest Hilson has been poor against us this season and couldn't possibly have him in front of Baird,but all about opinions I suppose.

Now the blues are safe I'll have a wee dig at this.We will be losing Kyle Turner off to a higher league,back to parent clubs will be Innes Cameron,Ali McCann,P J Crossan and Jao Victoria.Probably would try and keep,Currie GK,Hamill,Brownlee,Cummins,MacDonald,MacManus and Elliot who have all shown good form at one time and another this season.Young McGowan could be worth another season,Mark Lamont is frustrating at times but can play well

Probably right.

Correct,injured against Ayr utd on Tuesday night.

PotS for Stranraer,surely between Max Currie,Kyle Turner or Conor McManus,any other names or is it this 3.

Probably based on Stranraer releasing him a couple of seasons ago for not scoring enough in League 1,but to be fair he had an in and out season due to injuries etc.His 4 performances against the blues this season have resulted in zero goals,he scored quite a lot before the new year but hasn't been that clever recently,would take Ryan Wallace any day of the week and have watched both in a Stranraer jersey,but obviously imo

Would love to have the new year derby back,a small team on a small budget against Stranraer excellent

No way is McGuigan a Championship player

Looks like opinions aren't allowed anymore on a football forum.

I'm not sure what makes you think I'm not calm. I don't think East Fife will go up. My point was weren't you also running around saying Arbroath will do a Brechin as well? Seems to be a particular thing you have a bee in your bonnet about. Nope not guilty fella,never mentioned Arbroath,they are the best in this League and best of luck to them,a couple of shrewd signings and they could do okay,but if the League 1 side manage to win the play offs I'll hold my hands up and say I was wrong,no problems.

And we managed to score 7 against you,exactly my point.

Not surprised it's fans of teams who are in the playoff contention who are shouting my post down,never really said there was a gap between the bottom of the championship and League 1 but it's only my opinion that the team from the championship will prevail,calm your skin.

Surely if your a Stranraer supporter it's the only form you can go on.

Maybe I didn't explain it very well but I've seen the lot 4 times this season apart from Airdrie and Raith(still to play)and there is no outstanding team in any of them,I reckon the Championship team will win the playoffs,but time will tell.

Having watched Forfar on Saturday you couldn't really throw a blanket over any of the the play off hopefuls,the best team at Stair pk lately have been DumbartonIn danger of repeating myself if the Championship team can't beat a playoff team in League 1 this season then I give up.
