It’s a second successive home game as we welcome Berwick Rangers to Central Park with a 3pm kick off.
Our previous meeting with the Borderers this season back in October saw a 2-1 defeat at Shielfield Park. Sam Newman gave us the lead three minutes into the second half before Lewis Barr equalised in 85 minutes before Liam Buchanan grabbed the winner two minutes later.
Apart from Buchanan other former Central Parkers in the Berwick squad, managed by one time loanee from St Johnstone Stuart Malcolm, are captain Jamie Pyper, Graham Taylor, Jamie Stevenson and Cammy Graham, who started the season with us before being transferred south. One of our many pre season trialists Griffin Sabatini stated the season with Berwick but has moved onto East Stirlingshire.
Until last Saturday the Borderers had been on a six game winning run and in total eight without defeat before going down 3-2 to Caledonian Braves at Alliance Park.
The Borderers currently sit in sixth place in the table with 52 points from 32 games.
