Stirling vs Queen of the South preview - Scott primed for Stirling bow
Posted Saturday, January 29, 2011 by PA
Jocky Scott's reign as Stirling boss will kick off against Queen of the South following a false start last weekend, although his new side are four men down.
Defender Scott Buist and on loan Rangers midfielder Stephen Stirling are banned, with injuries keeping Martyn Corrigan and Ross Forsyth on the sidelines.
On loan Hearts defender Jonathan Brown can hope for a seat on the bench after a knock with Scott's plans to bring in new faces on hold.
Scott said: "I had hoped to have some new faces on board even as trialists but it does not look like it will happen. We will go with what we have and I cannot wait to get started."
Queen of the South are without Bob Harris and David Lilley through suspension but everyone else is available to manager Kenny Brannigan.
The Dumfries boss is pleased that the club's financial problems are out in the open following Chairman David Rae going public this week.
Brannigan said: "It is a bit of a relief that everyone knows now so we can just get on with things. We only have a small squad but we are a tight squad and we showed against Falkirk a fortnight ago what we are capable of."
The Dumfries men will need to be at their best, added Brannigan: "Jocky Scott is a coach a rate highly and I am sure he will have a positive impact there."
