Paul Lovering will be the Airdrie captian for season 2006 -2007 after coming back to the team and agreeing a contract.
Tomorrow is going to be a tough start to the season but Sandy expects to take all three points.
Gary Tairney has been hampered by shin splints during pre-season and looks like he is a couple of weeks away from the starting eleven.
Neil McGowan will be the only player to miss tomorrows game due to injury.
Once again Sandy Stewart was interviewed at around about 6:15pm on L107
