Pars trio out for Buddies battle

Dunfermline manager Jimmy Calderwood will again be without the injured Scott Thomson for the clash with St Mirren.

David Moss and Chris McGroarty are also ruled out through knocks.

But Moroccan star Youssef Rossi comes after being away on international duty.

St Mirren striker Jose Quitongo is pushing for a recall to the St Mirren side for the game.

He made an impact in the dramatic last-minute win over relegation rivals Dundee United on Monday night.

Mark Yardley looks set to make way.
