CoveRangers1922 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 (edited) What a different a year makes! This time last year it was looking like a battle for 4th with Falkirk and possibly missing out on the playoffs. To be a Spiders fan right now must be pure joy. To see promotion after promotion with another promotion looking ever closer. See your club go full time and thrive, whilst taking in quality additions and playing silky football. For Cove looking back to early summer it was inevitable we might struggle in this division or at least be down near the relegation playoffs. Been a tough couple of months and this game will be more of the same. Our last 2 recruits look promising, more than that can be said for the 8 before them. Hopefully we have Shay, Mitch and Scully back. All didn't play against Dundee at the weekend and the latter two didn't even make the matchday squad. Mitch failed a late fitness test. We'll need to be at our best, ruthless in front of goal and hope the Spiders are off form. A point would be a good result, three points like gold dust. With the Spiders needing the points too it should make for a good game minus the freezing temperatures. I'll be at Ochilview on Friday night Edited March 6, 2023 by CoveRangers1922 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h_w7864 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Onto yet more Friday nights at Ochilview. Apart from that 6-0 win in January, Cove have really made it difficult for QP in the games we’ve played this season. We’ll be hoping to get a response after letting a 2-0 lead slip against Morton and we would be expected to beat Cove but we’ll probably concede late on to draw 1-1 which could have a big impact in the relegation battle and the title race depending on what happens elsewhere. Can’t wait for this one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam899 Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) Cove are horrific. However this league has a habit of throwing up surprises so you never know. Edited March 7, 2023 by Liam899 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williebraveheart Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I don't like Friday night games. We don't seem to play at our best in these. Cove will put everything into this as they fight for survival. We just need to concentrate on the job in hand and if we do I expect three points but it will be close. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pulled together the stats, and it's pretty ordinary. We've played seven games on a Friday night in the league this season, five of them 'at home'. Of those seven, we've won two (4-1 away to Arbroath just before Christmas, and 2-0 at home to Ayr at the start of February), lost two (3-2 at home to Ayr back in August and 2-0 away to Cove at the start of November) and drawn three. 9 points out of a possible 21 or 1.3 points a game. Contrast that to our record on a Saturday, where we've had two draws, four defeats and 11 wins out of 17 games, 35 points out of a possible 51 or 2 points a game. We're actually unbeaten at home on a Saturday, with six wins and a draw (including the game against Hamilton at Hampden), compared to one win, one defeat and three draws playing at home on a Friday night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an86 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Shitfest a 1-0 or put on a barnstorming performance. Doesn’t matter. Just win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampden Diehard Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Every game from now until the end of the season will be a nightmare for the nerves. And to think that this time last year we were worrying that we wouldn't reach the play offs. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A win tonight will put extra pressure on the teams chasing us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they did, so it’d be lovely if our city neighbours could do the honourable thing and give them another 3. I’m assuming this isn’t on telly and it’s just that Stenny are at home tomorrow? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent performance from them, no doubt QP will prove a much tougher opponent being comfortably atop the league table. Wouldn't it be great fun if it was a bit closer though? Right down to the wire, would be marvelous, wouldn't it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, this a good opportunity to grab three points and have one game less for others to catch-up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
