I’m saving myself for the cup final. Too many defeats ahead of that will just put me off.Β 

Logic says we’ll get pumped here with a makeshift defence, but Arbroath are struggling to keep up with Killie. I’ll go for a tight game with Β Arbroath winning 1-0, or just maybe the makeshift Rovers putting in a fighting performance and battling to a draw, or even an away win.

I think that’s all bases covered.

Arbroath 1 v 2 RoversΒ 

Zanatta masterclass.

I have assumed Zanatta is still doubtful due to β€œno change in injuries” and him having missed the last two, although on the bench for Partick, with an ankle knock…but I hope you’re right and I’m assuming wrong.

Zanatta was fit last week. He was about to come on until Benedictus got himself sent off.Β

I dunno, think about all those teams in the Disney/Hallmark movies who have to play against the plucky underdog...

All this underdog business has got me thinking. Anyone have a dog that can play centre back?Β

If Rovers sent out a team full of dugs in their wee dug kits I have to admit I would be kind of half rooting for them they’d just be too adorableΒ

You've obviously forgotten that with dugs comes dugshit. Something we've served up a lot of in the last three to four months on a regular basis.

Sorry but I'd be sending a few steak and black pudding bad boys into the corners to create some space in the penalty box....Β

It’s really just one of our four senior centre backs away from being a pretty good team.

Is that really so much to ask? Benedictus, Berra, Lang and Musonda all started the last time at Gayfield too.
