Heads It's Pirie

We got back on the winning trail against Ayr on Saturday with a 3 - 0 win. With Ayr having good results in their last five games we expected a hard match, but mistakes by the Ayr defenders made things easy for us. Billy Pirie was on the target for us again getting two goals with Bobby Street getting the other one. Duncan Davidson playing his first game for some time, did all that was asked from him. Ian Wilson replaced Duncan with half an hour to go. Doug Rougvie back again after missing four games through injury played his part. Our defence was sound throughout, and our forwards were always on the look-out for goals.
This week we entertain Celtic and if this game is anything like our previous encounters, the spectators should be in for an entertaining game.
