Just a quick report tonight for tomorrows trip into Europe, ok it's only just across the border into the un-charted town of Berwick, but it sounds good.

Now if you listen or read the well respected BBC website, you will notice that we welcome back in to the squad Kevin James, who as Airdrie United fans we actually refer to as Kevin Christie who was suspended after the Morton game.

Sandy is likely to be without the injured Alan Gow, who we hear has a slight hamstring pull. But other than that we have no other squad problems. Rumours that youngster Willie Mclaren has gone to Coventry on trial are slightly exaggerated and he should make the first team squad.

Possible Line Up

Mark McGeown
Kevin Christie, Alan McManus, Neil McGowan, Paul Lovering
Jerome Vareille, Stephen Docherty, David Dunn, Willie McLaren
Owen Coyle, Stephen McKeown

Many fans will agree that Mark Roberts who had taken Alan Gows place at the weekend blew his place so I have selected "Dosser" to replace Roberts up front.

Paul Smith the Berwick Rangers manager has Mark Cowan who is out due to a knee injury, but it seems he has heard the stories of our recent form and will decide his team shortly before kick off.
