Another of those close proximity matches that would or should hold some bite a Derby match in the making but not yet.

Bells First Division
1st October 2005

Tomorrow's  game is our second last of the first quarter, Queen of the South away in two weeks time being the 9th match. Ross County on Friday the  7th of October kind of messes up the natural way of things but at least we are coming to the end of the first quarter. Has it been a success?
We have one worry, Bran Prunty so crudely taken out of last weeks match against St Mirren will be given a late fitness test but is expected to make it.
David Dunn as we know is suspended for tomorrows match, his red card last week makes way for Paul Lovering to return to the left back position and earn
his place. Paul who has had his woes this season, first breaking his rib in pre-season and then breaking his toe a few weeks ago. Fitness will be his biggest problem.
Is tomorrows game a must win?
I think so, Clyde are one of those teams I would hope to be below us when it comes to May 2006.
