Brechin City vs Stirling Albion preview - Brechin pair doubtful
Posted Tuesday, December 20, 2011 by PA
Brechin City duo Charlie King and Craig Molloy are doubts for the visit of Stirling Albion after picking up knocks in the 3-2 success over Airdrie at the weekend.
Gary Fusco is expected to be available after illness, however Gerry McLachlan remains out after knee surgery as the Glebe Park men look to climb the table at the expense of the bottom-placed side.
Manager Jim Weir has some positive problems and he said: "Paul McManus and David McKenna have come on in our last two games and been excellent.
"Paul has scored in both of them and I am sure he is getting frustrated at being on the bench.
"Stirling Albion will be tough opponents as they will be really keen to get going under their new manager after a few false starts."
Stirling Albion's Callum Reidford will keep hold of the goalkeeper's jersey as Sam Filler has broken a bone in his hand.
Interim player-boss Greig McDonald has ruled himself out to concentrate on managerial duties with defender Shaun Dillon also absent with an ankle knock.
McDonald is keeping everything crossed that their game goes ahead, saying: "I am pleased with how training has gone but of course the real test will be in a game. They do not come much harder than Brechin away.
"It is a ground and a club I know well after being there as a player and we will have to play well to take anything from this one but the first whistle cannot come quick enough."
