Deutsch Par Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 Should be a decent away crowd (weather permitting) for this considering it's the first time we have played in Coatbridge since 1985 (the match in 1986 was moved to Airdrie's Broomfield because the expected travelling support exceeded number allowed on the safety certificate for Cliftonhill). The Lizzie have a 70 seater going, Lothian 68 have a 52, and I am pretty sure that the DASC bus is full also. Albion Rovers will be praying that their pitch dries out and also if their rearranged match against Cowdenbeath (scheduled for tomorrow, pitch inspection at 2) goes ahead that the pitch doesn't cut up too badly. I'm looking forward to it (regardless of when it's played, it's been budgeted for, so I am going). I went to Cliftonhill some years ago and took in Albion Rovers v Queen's Park which was an absolutely brutal game with Rovers winning 1-0 and Ryan Thomson up front for Rovers, he didn't do much except get booked for diving. Hopefully this game will be far better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyboy Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 Will miss this on Saturday, as working. Thought they looked a decent outfit last time at EEP. Another tough game ahead which i think we can win. Hopefully the pitch is better than the Cowden one, or it could be one of the long ball punt type of match.

Superally Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 I think the pitch will be very heavy so I'm not expecting a lot of silky fitba, score early and we will take the 3pts. COYP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the saline hill puma Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 pitch is meant to be as bad as cowdens if not worse according to the boy who does the scouting for Stranraer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deutsch Par Posted November 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 If their game tonight v Cowden goes ahead it puts their match against us in very serious doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deutsch Par Posted November 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Could be worse, the game could get moved to Airdrie... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honk Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 One of the few grounds in Scotland I haven't been to. Not exactly looking forward to it as such but hopefully we can overcome the difficult conditions and scrape a win. Weather set to be cold but dry so the game has a decent chance of going ahead. Wrap up well folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Deadpool Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 What's the chances of this ****er being on? My train home is for a set time so if I get down and the ******* is called off, I'll either have to pay a decent sum or (shudder) spend an afternoon in Coatbridge. Coatbridge. I can't even go to Glasgow as my ticket is from Coatdkye to Haymarket then Dundee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
