Choo choo!
Stranraer v St Johnstone
Decent start to the season all things considered from Stranraer, 5 points clear of Brechin and 6 clear of QOS. The away win to Brechin last week went a long way to giving Stranraer some breathing space of relegation for the time being, but they might just have to build a little more consistency if they want to be assured of Division 1 football next season. Good home win on the first day v Airdrie, although it has to be said Airdrie were quite poor early doors, and since then Stranraer have posted losses to Clyde and Hamilton and a dull goalless draw with QOS who were unfortunate not to take the honours.
St Johnstone have threatened to pick up of late, but they too will have to get a little more consistency if they are to challenge this season. Home draws with Ross County and Dundee wont cut the mustard, but the win away to Clyde last week gives reasons for optimism. And with Scotland, Milne and Dobbie up front they should have too much for Stranraer tomorrow.
On the injury front - Aitken, Jenkins, Swift, McPhee and McLean all look likely to miss out for the home side, while Stanic, James, Mensing, Henry and Sheridan return for the Saints.
Good enough for me.
