Superally Posted July 8, 2022 Report Share Posted July 8, 2022 Saturday brings the Pars first game in anger as we head along the road to Methil to play former Par Stevie Crawford’s East Fife in the Premier Sports Cup. Tickets have not been reduced for this game selling at £15. However, I suspect that East Fife have gambled in thinking there will be a big crowd against their Fife rivals. For those who can’t make the game there is a stream available also at £15. East Fife have had some mixed results regarding their local friendlies largely against local junior teams. The Pars have probably the better start coming into this game against senior teams and scoring 10 goals but had a single 1-0 defeat against Killie with a goal keeper error. There should be a semblance of a settled team and shape for this game but the Pars still have a long way to go in terms of developing their squad for the future league campaign. I think most Pars fans will want to see a competitive team with a serious effort to progress in this competition following previous seasons where we have abjectly failed to do so. McPake states he has he has some injury concerns but probably expects close to a full squad to choose from. There should be a good Pars support for this one and I think they will be leaving New Bayview with a 3-0 Pars win and a positive start to the 22/23 season.

Number Eleven Posted July 8, 2022 Report Share Posted July 8, 2022 I’m not sure we can read too much into preseason results and our squad is far from complete. I’d take any sort of win to keep our good record in the League Cup group stage going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan Army Par Posted July 9, 2022 Report Share Posted July 9, 2022 I was speaking to somebody close to East Fife goings on during the week. They said the current squad is not in a good way. Not sure if they have had recruitment problems and still to bring a few in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted July 9, 2022 Report Share Posted July 9, 2022 completely predictable to those of us who have said for the last 12 months we have lacked creativity ,pace and width from midfield and nothing whatsoever has changed so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Roy Barry Fan Club Posted July 9, 2022 Report Share Posted July 9, 2022 Only one chance -- McCann's header. Scrappy game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berry Posted July 9, 2022 Report Share Posted July 9, 2022 We need some width in our team which we don’t have at the moment. An important fixture this for the cup, certainly with Buckie taking the lead against Ross County. Take any sort of W today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
