indeed, top 6 in action against each other and realistically with the right combination of results it could keep the race open .....

Saturday, 30 January 2010

1st V 2nd: Dundee v Ross County

6th V 3rd: Dunfermline v Queen of South

5th V 4th: Inverness CT v Partick Thistle

[tm4tj]

Thats a thumping win for Pars today, hoofing Jags 1-4. I still think they will have a big say in the league title.

[Johnboy]

It is an amazing league this....

I'm beginning to see and understand why some would be quite happy for us to stay here.

[gingerjaggy]

crucial we beat partick at home keeps the momentum up and shows tht we are improving at home because our home wins were against morton airdrie raith as of yet no win against the top 6 so lets batter partick while they are down :D

[blobs]

good to get a clean sheet as well

[+Hiro]

Very important 3 points today and another clean sheet is nice. Just had a look at the league fixtures and they are as follows:

30 Jan - Partick (H)

13 Feb - Raith (A)

20 Feb - QOS (H)

27 Feb - Ayr (H)

All very winnable and could set us up for a showdown at Dens on 6th March. We also have Morton (a) and County (h0 to reschedule. The league isn't over by a long shot.

[tm4tj]

Going by a couple of Airdrie posters on P&B we hit the woodwork twice and missed an open goal. The Airdrie keeper made some good saves and they missed a glorious chance near the end to equalise as we were not so good in the second half.

[WYNESS101]

Hiro - think you should change your signature. We've already failed at the ALBA cup and i cant see us winning the league

[jim]

anyone at the game today whats the story...

thanks wyness

Good 3 points today in what was always going to be a tricky fixture and a bonus in being two points closer to Dundee as well. Sounds like we had numerous chances but just couldn't turn them into goals.

Couldn't listen to the games today but caught the Radio Scotland football summary later - got a little bit over excited about hearing Rooney had got four only to find out it was the small rotund one they were referring to in their headlines.... :D

[DornochJAGGIE]

Glad to get the three point, Airdre are a frustrating team to break down.

[The Mantis]

Hit the woodwork 3 times or was it 4. Foran had a goal chalked off from a free kick just after the penalty. The foul was for foot-up which is indirect IIRC. Winning 1-0 with a spot kick flatters Airdrie. Very young team who seldom threatened. Might easily have ended 5-0 - the only worry was Airdrie might have got a deflection or an o.g. near the end. Don't think Ryan had a serious save to make.

Ross had a very quiet 500th B)

Cox got booked first half for a shocker of a challenge. Lionel was being targeted by Airdrie. They tried it down our left every time (which wasn't that often). Lionel's booking was a bit strange. Imrie went to waste time near the corner flag and won a shy. Left it for Lionel who was coming up from halfway and the ref booked him for timewasting.

Edit: forgot to mention Rooney's shocker of a miss second half when he rounded the keeper then blazed it over.

FWIW one guy on the Airdire forum says we're the best side to visit their place this season (or did he mean this year :004: ).

I was at the game today, we should have scored 4 in the first half before the penalty. Foran was fantastic in the air during the first half & caused Airdrie a few problems.

Rooney played ok, Sanchez was poor IMO and Tokely won't be happy with his performance on his 500th appearance.

I heard a few digs at Imrie today from some elder gentleman which i thought was out of order, ok he may be arrogant but he ran up and down the right side all day causing Airdrie problems & getting into good areas, he was my man of the match today.

Small away crowd today which is expected but Airdrie's home support was tiny, i think the attendance was around 800-850, those other 3 stands haven't been open in years which is a shame as i think it's a tidy ground.

Not a great game but happy to get the 3 points :004:

[Georgeios]
