Still plenty snow in Cowdenbeath. still, you seem to be able to get oriam no problem on a Saturday. I wonder how that is ? Am sure Ross is Executive Director at oriam their was a good piece about him in the courier a few weeks back.Am not too sure if the league would let us play the match their if central park was still goosed in all fairness but good idea.The facilities at oriam look amazing but can't see it happening unfortunately. I read that interview with Ross it was quite good. Think Lex might be talking about last Saturday when the Mo played the Smokies in a closed door game at the Oriam. Must have been in the morning as Heriots played a rugby game there in the afternoon. We along with Edinburgh City normally train there so maybe both us and City were gazumped last week trying to book it on the Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOFOREVER Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Oh well, that was a wasted journey! Just goes to show you should never trust a pitch inspection. At 9am it was on - then another pitch inspection at 12 noon and it was off. As I was already over the Forth Bridge (or is it the Sixth Bridge now) I thought might as well carry on in case another pitch inspection at 2pm deemed it was playable after all. Quite honestly when I got there and ventured out on to the edge of pitch (gates were open and nobody around) it looked Ok to me, grass was even short and I've seen games played in worse conditions especially at Central Park. Top marks to the ground staff though for trying to get it on and I suppose as it was chucking it down when I was there it might not have seen the 90 minutes out anyway. Arrived back home safely!

It was heavy rain all morning from what I was told by someone who was there it was ok at 9 but the rain was non stop all morning and a second inspection was called at 12 with puddles on the pitch the ref put the game on. The pitch must have took some amount of water over the week as there were 8 inches of snow on it on Monday morning as shown in the picture.

mo83 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Tough two games coming up for Montrose starting tonight against Annan.Would take any sort of a win we need 3 points it's as simple as that.Annan frustrated us last time especially the goalkeeper if I remember correct and it will be a hard game but confident we can go and do this tonight.

MOFOREVER Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 A nervous performance - and that was only the crowd! Need Matty Allan back in the back four as Terry Masson looked far better in midfield second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Matty back would be a big bonus back for saturday......So would Cammy Ballantyne to be fair for the final few weeks of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gogs Grog Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Still last night's results takes the pressure of us a bit and puts it onto Peterhead for Saturday. Games counting down now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endieinreekie Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I'd settle for a draw on Saturday but a win would be fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 I may as well just leave this here... I couldn't make the game, but was Cammy the mystery trialist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Laszlo, the United gaffer is humming and hawing about letting Cammy join the Mo on loan. As have said before, would be a real boost to the Mo's campaign, if he was allowed to leave United till the end of the season. Commentary at around 7.00 minutes: "Dillon: plays the ball out. Here's Cammy Balantyne. Good play by Montrose." Presumably "Cammy" is in fact "Ross"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maz1974 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 it was definitely Ross Campbell, no sign of Cammy, but we can hope! Maybe we can sacrifice a goat or something.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
