JIMMY BOYLE says Airdrie are treating their final 16 league games as the start of a new campaign.

​

The Diamonds are in fourth place on goal difference and travel to top of the table Cowdenbeath tomorrow.

​

Boyle said: "It's a new season for us, starting now. The last two wins have been excellent and we want to push on.

​

"Cowdenbeath deserve to be at the top of the table but we feel we can beat them if we play the way we know we can.

​

"They are a team that works hard together and their manager, Colin Cameron, will not want us to gaining any more points on them."

​

Boyle was sad to see Northern Irish goalie Paul McKane leave the club but hopes to bring in new players this month.

​

"Paul got a bad injury to his knee and it looks like it will take him out for the rest of the season," the manager added.

​

"With his family being in Ireland, we asked if he wanted to come to an arrangement regarding his contract, and he agreed to that.

​

"We will be trying to strengthen the squad defensively this month and perhaps look at bringing in a right-back.

​

"We're always looking to improve what we have and we'll see what is out there."
