On paper, Thomas, Polworth and Lawless in behind O’Hara should be an excellent attacking threat. 1 striker against a team playing a back 5 is unnecessarily negative for a must win though.

Playing one up front against a back three is good if Dunfermline can control the game in the middle and exploit the wide spaces. How well our wing backs play will be important to that defensively.

On the flip side it's a fairly aggressive lineup from ourselves with not much room to sit back; Imrie is clearly going for all three points.

In the three games we've started with a midfield three of Wilson, Blues and Oliver we've only scored once. Hoping the Oliver v Dunfermline curse is enough to overcome that because dropping Lyon doesn't make much sense.

Interested to see how this plays out but agreed, I don’t think the Dunfermline line up is remotely defensive with the three in behind. Ugwu and Reilly up against Donaldson and Ambrose could be an interesting battle - and one I expect Morton’s strikers to win.

Heartbreaking to see the Norrie so empty. Would love to see all the folk who sit in the NW decamp to the Norrie in general, but then I've always preferred the Norrie to the NW (have had season tickets in both but far preferred the Norrie).

The NW are producing a good noise though.
