Re: Scottish League Ante Post 08/09

I think clyde will do a lot better than folks are predicting. I think with the ex Queen's Park boys and Pat clarke having a full season for them they'll lay as a team. I couldnt back them mind. well i would need to look into them more. Partck would be a consideration. aye they could give the top 2 a run for their money. I said that last season togh. they dont wi enough at home for my liking. Dunfermlne have ost most their top players and wont be buying any. they surely cant be considered to trouble the leaders. st Johnstone yet again are in the top 2 of the betting and hw can you expect anything else from them than another season of high hopes followed by the evnual dissapointment. theyve got a load of new players in and they could be anything in this division. dundee wont be much if any better than last year so i'm siding with st johnstone poss. It's a gamble in tself taking them. will it be their year - finally?

East fife are expected to be strong and lead from the front. Even though i don't like them i shouldnt discount them. they have the players capable of winning this league. My head's tlling me that they will win it and possibly well if raith just dont gell and ayr are as inconsistant as they are capable of. once Williams and Borris start picking up the cards and their missing out ayr could lose a bit of ground. On their day they will be handing out thumpings and their goal record will be good (well if they get another striker). I'll stick to my 'ayr e/w for the league' at 9/1 and leave them off my handicap list. Stirling i just hink will be very average this season. Hard to beat at hme and possibly pick up too many draws like last season. Brechin ive take a little for the league at 9's too. I think that they will be there abouts for sure. Will they be 9pts behind a probable east fife? Hard to say especially if East fife really do fire and beat folks week in week out. draws are gonna kill a lot of cubs in this league pos. Actually Brechin wenton a great run themselves last season and i see no reason why they wont again. aye im starting to think the league will finish

east fife
Brechin
ayr
raith

Just a case of working out the points handicap. aye Brechin +9 i like the sound of.

Cowdenbeath im starting to veer towards in div 3. strong squad with players proven at a higher level. I forgot that they have such good players that Dempster doesnt even get a game for them. Dumbarton i fear wont be the finished article and it will be another season of disappointent for the dumbarton fans. They should be hard to beat especially at home but i wouldnt get too excited about taking them away from home. Scoring goals could yet again be their dowfall. Stenhousemuir i see s a threat but theyve been the punters hell-team for about 3 seasons. should rack up some big wins but again consistancy at home could let them down. Montrose need some players but should be there abouts. Berwick i think could be bette than iimage but the they could be anything. Forfar was the team i was hoping to back in this but im a little dissapointed in their +12 quote. Need to look at them more but i wa quite impressed with one or 2 of their signings.

Cowdenbeath and Brechin i think i am interested in the nw for the handicap. be interesting to see how the oter bookies price it up before commiting
