After 36 regular league games and three play -off matches it now boils down to 90 minutes at East End Park to see if we can retain our Championship status for next season.

 

After Wednesday night’s 1-1 at Central Park which saw Andy Geggan head the League 1 side into the lead before Thomas O’Brien equalised with a similar goal it’s all to play for with the massive prize of a place in what will be the most exciting second tier for many years the reward for the winner.

 

We go into the game with an almost fully fit squad with only Sammy Stewart injured.

 

For long distance fans who; can’t make the trip to East End Park, the game will be shown live on BBC Alba with a 4.05 p.m. kick off.

Despite having the joint second best home record along with Stranraer, the Pars actually won more points away from home during the regular league campaign.
