Im not up to speed at all but Stenhousemuir at 12/5 and all prices above 2/1 has to be a bit stand out. They both met twice at the start of last season as they do this (again in the league following sat) I suppose that has no real bearing but i'd take stenhousemuir at 2/1+ all day long v airdrie.

All i know about saturdays game though is that stenhousemuir where being talked about by some as having the best first 11 in the league this season a month or so ago on pie and bovril. Also that imo Airdrie havent improved much on last season although their form the last half was probably next to none.

Ill need to look at it more but ive a feeling i'l be on a bet such as stenhousemuir on saturday all day long. I was gonna take Albion Rovers on sat at Airdrie @ 7/2 such is my doubts about Airdrie this season. it ended 2-2 before albion rovers went through on penalties. I havent read reports but ill have to.

Ayr at 4/5 folks will like but i couldnt bring myself to trust any team managed by Mark Roberts this season. Ill wait till he's gone before i put a penny on Ayr this season.

My knowledge doesnt make me fancy much at all this saturday. Forfar are ok for a cup shock maybe.

A highly unadventurous interest treble for me. Queen of the South (v Elgin), Hamilton (v Arbroath), and (Montrose v) Falkirk pays a fraction under evens (0.98/1) with Boylesports.

Id be suprised if Falkirk dont go on and win that with ease now TC. I had stenhousemuir in a single and in an accy including....Ayr (i know) Morton, Alloa and Forfar. Id happily take another goal for forfar :hope Ill take even just the stenhousemuir win.

Stenhousemuir quite comfortable but airdie have had their chances. If last season is anything to go by then its far from over. Ive got a bad feeling about it.

 

[ThunderCelt]

With Hamilton and Queen's both a couple or more up, I've hedged Montrose/draw at 10/1 .

So, Komp, I guess we're both up on the day?

Indeed TC. Im a bit sick i never took stenhousemuir ht/ft and -1 etc. Theres a name for that isnt there? Gamblers Fallacy i think they call it. Nope im wrong. Its just called being a greedy bastard. bah most folks would have known id have liked to have had all them other markets. I never really had the money anyhow. Stenhouseuir has paid for my poker losses on the day at least.

well till next week TC
