Stranraer v St. Mirren 15/07/17


Recommended Posts


Hoping for a strong showing from the defence in these League Cup games.

Last season, it took until December to see a clean-sheet in the league (Raith 1-0) and then the next one didn't arrive until the end of February (Ayr 2-0). We had a little clutch of them when Davis was fit, but even during that great run we still conceded more than a goal a game in the final quarter.

With the loss of Mallan's creativity and goals it seems pretty unlikely we'll be as free-scoring as we were at the end of last season. Things will be need to be tightened up at the back to compensate.

Stewart in ahead off Sutton. Disappointed in that.

That's what sticks out for me. Could be though that there will be a bit of rotation in these games and Sutton will start on Tuesday.

Also noticeable is that the bench looks a wee bit light with Eckersley, Todd, Magennis and Hilson all out injured.
