Clayhole Blue Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Second year in a row we will have started against the team we finished our previous league season against. Given we have played teams from Championship and League Two in the cups this will be our first chance to judge ourselves against opposition from our in division. A number of changes for us, notably the loss of Docherty, Grehan and Stirling. But in have come Malcolm, Russell, Longridge, McCloskey, Pettigrew and Marenghi. Hope thus fixture reverts to its norm of the home team winning and we carry on from where we left off against the Loons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cresto11 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Enjoyed last year's encounters against Stranrear, fairly evenly matched other than the 4.0 game. We look great going forward at the moment, so many attacking options. Defensively we need to sharpen up and the worry seems to be losing goals. A nice solid point away from home would be good to start with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlipperyP Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 ^^^^ 3 years to make their first post and it couldn't be better. I'm fairly confident that we will score goals on Saturday, just how many will be let in. 1-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husband and young will be a cracking midfield pairing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loondave1 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 It's a very tough start and I always thought the two cup ties and two opening league fixtures would be difficult happy with even a point from Stranraer Dunfermline fixtures and then I think we'll bed in and be pretty decent.

Blue-Orchid Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 There's a bookies in Stranraer , right ? Coral, Ladbrokes and William Hill all in the town centre. Value in Stranraer at 5/4. Not that I'll be touching it. Tough test to start the season. Don't think we'll see the free flowing stuff of last season but, do think we'll be quite hard to beat. Defence has looked pretty sturdy.

PeterPrice Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Have Longridge and Marenghi been getting game time with Stranraer so far? Also i presume Malcolm has returned to playing up front again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gub Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Malcolm back up front, will be good with Longworth once they start to click. Longridge looks like 1st choice left wing back Marenghi been used as a sub, looked ok when he came on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterPrice Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I reckon Longridge will be decent. Never got a chance at Ayr really! I liked Marenghi as well tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
