League goals for predictor:- 18.
Howay the lads!!
Sorry. Wrong team.
Joking aside though, this was a welcome result.
However, it means that in one game we increased our goal tally in the league by 33 1/3%. We have seen a false dawn before this season. That also means that 50% of our league goals have come in just two games.
As I remarked to Onebrow on the phone when he informed me we’d gone two up (we both live too far away to attend evening home games) it needed to be two. He understood I meant that Stephen Grindlay was in goal and therefore Alloa would score. He has still not kept a clean sheet. I watched last Saturday’s highlights on Sons TV and despite his MotM he more or less threw the winner to Stenny.
I’ll begin to believe a corner has been turned if we can manage to score an away goal in sunny Methil on Saturday, especially if it is from open play.
But… our record at East Fife is dreadful and they hammered us there last time out.

Grindlay has always reminded me of Dracula. He doesn’t like crosses. I thought he was over-rated in his first spell, and my opinion hasn’t changed.

My thoughts exactly, Sonnyrock.
