East Fife v Clyde

[sammytroot]

A very important game for both clubs.

The question is - which team of knackered players will prevail. EF did OK in the draw with Cove . Conversely a pathetic away performance against Montrose in a 3 - 0 defeat.

Clyde appear to have perhaps stabilised the ship in their last 2 games.

A big 3 points is the reward.

Lennon's used our squad very well over the last 3 games - only ones playing 3x 90 mins being Ewan Otoo and Kev Nicoll. And of course Mitchell.

Looks like Goodwillie might miss this one as well. Expect our defence and keeper to be busier than they were on Tuesday too. Would need to see our line up before making any concrete predictions though.

A question for the EF fans r.e Austin, transfermarkt (which is usually pretty reliable) has him down as going back to Kelty already but doesn't appear to be anything on either clubs official sites regarding that. Assuming he's still with EF?

They have signed Greg Spence on loan. 4 goals since 2018

This also could be April Fools

[Cambuslang Fifer]

We need turn up tonight like our April fools joke everyone knows about! 

[monthefife]

That 3-0 loss to Montrose on Tuesday night will have been absolutely deflating and mortifying for the players, and the pressure will now be mounting on Darren Young to get the players motivated and fired up again after that shambolic display. 

Fash's loan now over as he returns to Kelty, so will DY stick new loanee Greig Spence straight in to the team, or will he opt to give Sean Brown an opportunity? I'd go with the latter, personally. Desperate to see DY show some "tough love" and mix things up a little bit by dropping a few players. Especially Agnew/Slattery who have been a mere shadow of their former selves.

Must win game for us tonight! Good luck to Darren and the team, a much improved performance is a must if we want to make the play offs.

Never realized it was such a short loan. That's a big bonus for us. A player that always causes us problems.

I have to be honest, in the three games we've had him back, he hasn't impressed that much. Nowhere near as good as he was before he left but that's probably mostly down to fitness. If only Jack Hamilton was still with us; we'd probably be in the bottom two had it not been for his contribution before the season was halted.

Strange such a short term deal considering their season finished is it not?!. Anyways 3pts and weans out V Ayr will do just nice

[David W]

Would he have been able to go back to Kelty for a play-off game if he was on loan for longer? I genuinely have no idea if the registrations are the same for the LL.

Aye Keltys potential play-off must have something to do with it (imagine they're going ahead as the HL and LL titles were awarded yesterday). I also notice Kelty haven't loaned out anyone else whereas the likes of EK have the majority of their squad out on loan so clubs options for potentially taking Kelty players on loan must've been either short term or no can do.

Bought the live stream, I think this is my first game since the Hearts cup tie. Now that the clocks have changed the 7.45am and a day off from work is much more convenient.

Tell you what that Cole McKinnon is a dead ringer for Kieran Tierney!!!

[Mon_The_Fife]

Interesting team. Never realised that Mike McGlinchey had signed for Clyde. It wasn’t that long ago I watched him play for Wellington Phoenix and now he’s in Methil.

[Replays]

Anything from this one is a bonus. Rotation is the name of the game.

[David W]

Josh Jack starting up front; we'll see how that goes.

[Replays]

Not the best start really, is it?
