This was a fabulous game, end-to-end stuff. Bingham gave us the lead with a superb 25 yard free-kick, but Peterhead pulled back almost instantly. They took the lead just before half-time, a shot deflecting off Derek Lilley and looping over Alan Main (in for the injured Tom Heaton). David scored twice in 6 second half minutes to give us the lead back, and we managed to hold out for the 3 points. Give full credit to Peterhead though, they deserved something out of the game

"I think we should give a couple of the younger players a chance. Its a game against a weaker side so why not, and give a couple of first teamers a rest?"
"Alright, I suppose. You just dont want to take them too lightly thats all. Its up to you anyway, you're the boss at the end of the day"

"Ok, you were right. It was too easy, even with five first teamers out. I was surprised you kept Kenny in the squad though"
"Well if we were struggling for a goal i would have threw him on, as he seems to know where the net is. That young Prokas kid impressed me today, I will keep an eye on him through the seaaon"
"Yeah, good idea. I cant believe he is only 19, have you seen the size of him? Hes got more facial hair than me"
"I give up...."

It was a stroll in the park today. Berwick were never in with a shout from the moment James Grady scored after 12 minutes. Prokas waqs sensational though, running the show and pulling the strings from midfield. He fully deserved his MoM award. We kept our first clean sheet of the season too, so theres a cause for celebration.

I was in any fit state to manage the team in this game, and i should have handed the reins over to Simon. But, being a stubborn bugger i decided to take charge anyway. We were dire, the team played the way i felt, and we deserved to get beat. We had now played two of the promotion contenders and been beaten both times.

Challenge Cup 3rd round
Gretna 1-3 Ross County
Scorers: Hannah
We were totally outclassed in this match. Ross County showed their superiority all game, with swift passing moves that cut through our defenders with ease. I have no complaints about the defeat but we need to sharpen up at the back though

This was the biggest game of the season by far. At home against the unbeaten league leaders and joint favourites for promtion. I said to the lads before we went out that they need to be at their very best, both at the back and going forward. This would be a real test of our mettle after a tough couple of games. Partick started like house on fire, and took the lead after 14 minutes. We equalised 5 minutes later, and took the lead on the stroke of half time. We got a 3rd after 58 minutes to give us a 2 goal cushion but that was wiped out 7 minutes later with Particks 2nd goal of the game. We were immense at the back after that, keeping everything Prtick threw at us out. We need to build on this now and get a good run going.
