Why Lichties fans prefer Campbell rather than Klopp

That left Rovers trailing a massive 13 points behind the leaders with the game between the two high-flying sides on December 22 at Gayfield looking like it could prove pivotal to the eventual destinatio­n of the title.

However, Campbell insists that all he is concerned about is today’s match at Airdrie.

The manager said: “It was another fantastic result in a derby at Forfar last week to keep our unbeaten run going.

“I didn’t feel we played particular­ly well in the first half but we stepped up a gear in the second and it was a great three points for us.

“The only down side to the victory at Forfar was Tam O’Brien’s sending off so there will obviously have to be a change at the back this week as he is suspended

“But we have Callum Smith back available again after he recovered from injury.

“I know a lot of our fans will already be looking forward to our game with Raith a week on Saturday but we are just 100% focused on what is in front of us and a tough match at Airdrie.”
