DICK AIMS TO POLISH OFF DIAMONDS
DICK CAMPBELL wants top spot in Group E as Arbroath host Airdrie in a winner-takes-all clash.
The Lichties sit two points ahead of the Diamonds and boss Campbell said: “We know they can qualify if they beat us so we go into it knowing we’ve got to win.
“Airdrie are a good team but so are we and we’re a hard team to beat at home.”
Gary Bowyer insists Dundee will not underestimate Forfar at Dens.
The Dark Blues have a 100 per cent record so far and boss Bowyer said: “They’re going to have a right good go and they will want to be as competitive as they possibly can be.
“We have to be right and treat them with the respect they deserve, go about our processes to try and beat them.”
Owen Coyle hopes Queen’s Park can grab a runners-up spot when they go to Hamilton.
The Spiders sit second but boss Coyle said: “We still have an opportunity.
“If we can go to Hamilton and win, then we can see what the best second places are, if it’s going to be nine or 10 points.”
Dougie Imrie wants Morton to get a boost for the league season by beating Bonnyrigg. The Cappielow men are still in with a chance of topping Group D after being handed a walkover win over Hibs.
And Ton manager Imrie said: “Putting in that performance at Hibs can hopefully give us a lift going into Bonnyrigg. And then we can kick on for the rest of the season.”
Darren Young has backed his Stirling side to pick up pointers from their 5-0 loss to Aberdeen as they finish their campaign with the visit of Peterhead.
The Binos boss said: “We will learn from it as a group. It showed us the level and standard of the top teams.”
Jim Weir wants Elgin to push on when Queen of the South come to Borough Briggs. The City No.2 said: “Hopefully we can take something from how we finished the game against St Johnstone, although we know Queens will be decent.”
