stranraerfc1870 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) The Blues welcome Kelty Hearts to Stair Park for the first time ever this Saturday. A very even game up at New Central Park in September with an 8th minute Nathan Austin goal giving the home team the 3 points. It looks like it's going to be a good day for a game of fitba' with virtually no wind and partially cloudy sky. Really looking for forward to this game and I'm predicting a score draw! Any Kelty fans looking for a beer before the game should visit the Fitba Bar in North Strand Street. Only a ten minute walk to Stair Park.

Kelheart Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Missing the long treck down on Saturday (works day out) but Stranraer hitting a good bit form and there was nothing in the first game , we tend to play a bit better away from home as teams come out a bit more so hoping for a 2-1 Kelty Mon Kelty 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG.Roma Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 I don't think Kelty will get through the whole season unbeaten. Someone on good form will catch them on a rare off day, and it could well be one of the D&G teams either this weekend or next 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onecowden Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 4-0 Kelty. Don't think anyone seen that coming, but we'll take it!Kelty are so much better than everyone else in this league, so it’s quite easy to predict scorelines like that. The only remarkable thing is it doesn’t happen that often. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stranraerfc1870 Posted December 18, 2021 Author Share Posted December 18, 2021 Santa came early for Kelty Hearts with Stranraer gifting the first 2 goals to them. We had a couple of chances to make it one all but couldn't convert. The second Kelty goal sealed the victory. Kelty Hearts are a better team than Queens Park and will win this league with half a dozen matches remaining. The only way to come close to them is to have all your first eleven picks fit and playing with confidence, and them taking the foot of the gas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only remarkable thing is it doesn’t happen that often. If scores like that don't happen that often, then how can they be easy to predict? The point that I was making was that a tough game was expected as Stranraer had competed well in the first match at NCP, plus they were on a good run, and also had home advantage yesterday. Not many, if any, Kelty fans would have said beforehand that they expected to win the match 4-0. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Kelty has a squad so much better than is needed to win this league, therefore it’s easy to predict comfortable wins. Sometimes the scoreline doesn’t always reflect the dominance. It doesn’t really matter as long as the three point hauls keep coming. Without doubt it will continue for the rest of the season. That I can confidently predict. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no doubt that Kelty have the strongest squad in the league, and it is likely that they will win the league, but most of their matches have been tough, and some of these could have gone either way. The two matches against your team are testament to that. I have seen the vast majority of their matches this season and very few have been easy wins, It's why it's not easy to predict large margins of victories, plus it is a bit arrogant to mouth off that your team will win easily, and most people surrounding Kelty Hearts are certainly not that.
