Re: Scottish 1st/2nd/3rd Division 17th December

Quick thoughts on this weeks card.

Airdrie vs Brechin - you have to fancy Airdrie here but at 1.4 with bet365 its not worth looking at

Clyde vs Stranraer - I actually was going to back Clyde last week on the buttmonkey thread against Ross County but changed my mind and back Losssiemouth!!! Typical never mind fancy Clyde again against Stranraer.

Hamilton vs Ross County - Is Ross County showing signs that they are on the way down with 2 defeats on the trot, not sure but this will be a tough game. Hamilton are not bad at home with a 4-3-1 although Ross County has been bad away from home - I fancy Hamilton here, need more thoughts on it though.

Queen of the South vs Dundee - Great result for Dundee last week against St Mirren and very unexpected although having watched St Mirren i don't think they will run away with this league but from all accounts Dundee was lucky to win 4-0 last weekend. Queen of the South have been terrible this season and Ian McCall isn't really getting results either since he's taken over. I wonder if this is the game that could surprise people. Might take them as a outsider as i don't think Dundee are all that good.

St Mirren vs St Johnstone - First division game of the day, St Mirren having a terrible result last weekend will be wanting to bounce back. St Johnstone will not want to lose this game with being 7pts behind them. Tough game i think to predict maybe a stay away

Ayr vs Stirling - Ayr just had a fantastic result against Morton although it is Morton bogey team is it - they do struggle a bit against Ayr. Stirling Struggled against Inverurie Loco's - i was hoping the Loco's hold out as i would have went to the reply - damn. Anyway this looks a draw to me and a stay away.

Dumbarton vs Gretna - Gretna to win as normal - 1.4 is about right and stay away for me.

Forfar vs Raith - a horrible match to predict, Raith haven't been playing well recently and according to them their defeat to Queens Park was the worst performance since their manager taken over. Stay away for me i think although i do fancy Raith to get something out of the match.

Partick vs Alloa - Partick sould thump Alloa but i'm not touching that bet at that price.

Peterhead vs Morton - Have to fancy Morton here although Peterhead has been in good form of late and Morton always a bit dodgy away from Home. Morton have never won at Peterhead.

Albion vs East Stirling - Was hoping for a better price for Albion against East Stirling but then again East Stirling new manager if it happens. Think i'll go with my rule here not to bet during managerial changes.

Arbroath vs Queens Park - Fancy Arbroath here, won the last 4 at home and although Queens Park had a fantastic result against Raith, i think 1.9 is a tad massive for a team that has been good at home recently - hope i can get evens although i think i'd take 1.9.

Montrose vs Berwick - Evens for Berwick who have been poor with losing the last 4 games, maybe worth looking at Montrose price but then again no manager although they want david hannah - stick to my rule although i wouldn't mind putting on Montrose as a outsider 2/1 at home against a team that has lost 4 on the bounce mmm tempting - if i can't find a outsider i might take this.

Stenhousemuir vs Cowdenbeath - big game in the 3rd divison, for some reason i really fancy Cowdenbeath here.
