Airdrie travel to Hamilton in Ramsdens Cup

 After some discussion in work, with other Airdrie fans, about Jimmy Boyle’s team selection for tomorrow (Sat 28th July) we have come to the conclusion we haven’t got a clue! 

As we know Airdrie visit Hamilton in the Ramsden Cup playing in our new away kit. The kit seems to be getting mixed reviews on the message board.

Our uneducated guess at tomorrow’s team comes down to Jimmy’s choosing to play 4-4-2 or taking a chance in the cup and going for a 4-3-3.

4-4-2

Kenny Arthur (gk)
Hart, McDonald, Lilley, Lammie
Bain, Stallard or Blockley – Lynch, McLaren
Donnelly, Di-Giacomo

Subs – Duncan (Gk), Evans, Stallard or Blockley, Boyle, Sally

4-3-3

Kenny Arthur (gk)
Hart, McDonald, Lilley, Lammie
Stallard , Blockley, Lynch
Boyle,         Di-Giacomo,        Donnelly

Subs – Duncan (Gk), Evans, McLaren, Sally, Bain
