Match Preview
Little wants to go a long way Berwick's caretaker-manager Ian Little welcomes back Stephen Thomson from suspension for the home clash with Queens Park as he bids to extend his unbeaten run in charge. Little has won one and drawn one since taking over on a temporary basis, but midfielder David Greenhill is suspended, full-back Richard Walker is doubtful and Fraser McLaren is definitely out with a toe injury. Little, hoping another win will help secure him the job on a permanent basis, said: "I've enjoyed the two games I've been in charge for and have felt good about the way the boys have played. "We have competition for places as well now after injuries have cleared up and if we see off Queens Park it can only help my case for landing the job." Queens Park can call on the industrious David Anderson for midfield duties. The former Kilbirnie Ladeside player has shaken off the ankle injury that kept him out last week, while another box-to-box player, Paul Stewart, is free of work commitments and will play. But striker Michael Daly is doubtful due to a foot injury and Tony Quinn, Giuseppe Capuano, Michael O'Hara and Steven Baillie are all sidelined through knocks. Head coach Gardner Speirs said: "I watched Berwick win in midweek and they played well, but this is a game we're looking forward to. "A win for us opens up a bigger gap on Berwick and keeps us right in with the promotion pack and that's where we want to be."

Match Report
Rangers leave it late Two late strikes saw Berwick edge past Queen's Park as they ground out a 2-0 win to leapfrog their opponents. Stuart Noble and substitute Damon Gray secured the win for the home side after they looked set to lament Darren Gribben's missed penalty. An uninspiring first half burst into life with five minutes to go as Martin McBride curled wide for Queen's Park and Steven Notman scuffed his effort straight at Neil Parry at the other end. In the second half, Sean Burns tripped Ross Gray in the area to present Berwick with a penalty, but Gribben's effort was comfortably saved by Parry to his right. With 10 minutes to go, the deadlock was finally broken as Kevin McDonald crossed for Noble to power his header home. Damon Gray then replaced Noble and promptly ended the contest a minute later, lashing home Darren Lavery's lay-off.
