Tweeddale 3-1 West Barns

West Barns started quicker and looked good on the ball for the 1st 10-15 minutes, Tweeddale took the lead threw Nick Rogers against the run of play then Tweeddale started to take control and went in 1 up at half time, West Barns started to play well again at start of second half until Mark Mcleod made it 2 for Tweeddale, West Barns pulled 1 back when a quick free kick was played and broke well hit a deflected shot that beat the keeper, Barns then went down to 10 men and The Dale scored a 3rd to end the game, Credit to West Barns who played well and look a good footballing side who can put in a bit of fight when needed

Wirh our game being canccled thought id take in this game!Gala hotspur 1-0 overKelso thistle! Good hard encounter with the pitch being very heavy! Spurs fully deserve 3 points Kelso not testing the gala keeper! Kelso keeper made 4-5 great saves! Both teams trying to play football on a very difficult pitch! All the beat to both teams!

[Comeback King]

I hear there was a free for all at the chirnside colts v hawick utd game,red cards for both sides. looks like hawick utd still haven't managed to solve their discipline problems

[bambam]

indeed there was.........all came from a rash challenge from a hawick player........then the s**t hit the fan......1 off from each team following the "fracas" but all in all a fantastic game of football and a great advertisment for amateur football.........hawick went down to 9 men in the dying seconds after some choice words from the player sent packing for the ref..............who took some abuse today........ye cudnae pay me enough to ref these games!!

Good report of the game though you forgot to mention the silky ball playing centre half for Gala

Some strange results in the C division today with Gala Athletic and Hawick LR winning especially after St Boswells hammered Kelso a couple of weeks ago.

WRIGHT CUP SEMI FINAL
COLDSTREAM 1-4 LINTON HOTSPUR
A place in the final at stake and both teams started well, fast paced game and alot of early chances at both ends. Alot of dirty tackles from both teams going unpunished in first ten minutes. Coldstream causing problems for set pieces with one cleared off line. Slack defending giving Linton chances but they couldn't take advantage. Opening goal came from Linton player cutting in from left unchallenged and pinging a strike into the top of the net which the keeper I think could of dealt with. Linton hit the bar shortly after then made it 2-0 with a good header at back post. Coldstream pulled one back from a free kick out on the left, swung in and flicked into his own net by Lintons giant midfielder. Second half starts with Linton taking control and stretching the home defence. 3-1 from OG by coldstreams mouthpiece centre half, karma for ripping the Linton OG scorer. Alot of petty kicking out from both teams after the ball played continued throughout game. Both teams looked shattered last 20mins which could explain frustration. Well struck free kick makes it 4-1 in last ten when the wall just opens up for ball to fly into net. Linton reduced to 10men after yet another off the ball incident. More dummies getting spat out after final whistle with the ref flashing his yellow card. Good win in a very scrappy game for Linton

A gala hotspur player not wanting to play at a higher level?Huge shock there.The same thing happens every year with the 2 lower league gala teams.One gets promoted to the B division where they inevitably struggle and so alot of players return to their comfort zone of the C division, leaving the other team to struggle.They ultimately get promoted to the B division and the team in the B gets relegated back to the C.The cycle repeats itself year after year.

hi a dont no if you have any connection with chirnside but the referee was shocking today with hawick getting denied 2 stonewaller pens why only 1 of the chirnside players seen red is beyond belief and a hope the number 8 never gets to play for yous again kicking our player abt the head when he was on the ground is just utter crazy fair play to the guy from chirnside management who came over to see how our boy was after it and promising the boy would be hammered by there club

Or you could take it to be a Gala Hotspur player who has played junior level and is now old enough to know that he really is only C Division level and is quite happy being captain there and helping younger players come through. But you are right about the getting promoted and then getting relegated but that is normally due to the players who do well going to 'bigger' clubs and us starting afresh with a new squad of young players.

Collie Cup Final: Winton 2 Bowhom 3

Well done to Bowholm who took their chances in the 1st half which ultimately won them the game. Winton played the better football and had more possession throughout the game but didnt take their chances. Bowholm centre midfielder scored a screamer of a third goal on the stroke of half time and their keeper had a good game with a few sublime saves. Wintons chances werent helped by a few players not looking at all interested and 1 in particular turning up wasted from the night before, a real embarrasement! Well done again to Bowholm!

Gala Rovers 8 Duns 1



An excellent display again by Gala. Played the ball around well, with a cutting edge up front. Some quality players in all areas. Despite the scoreline, in spells, Duns actually looked quite good going forward, troubled Gala early on & maybe should have scored a couple. Defensively, well, the scoreline doesn't lie. Not defending as a team, slow to react not just in defence but also midfield, a bit one-paced & predictable all over the park. Credit to Duns for not giving up & trying to carry on playing football without letting their heads go down. Some good football on show despite the "gluepot" conditions, credit to both teams. For Duns it's turning into a long season already, as was expected for a new team, just hope we can get a few more results together to stay up & make a better job of it next season.

A

↲↲Bit harsh to blame just chirnside...ur number 8 was a bam tae. As 4 the brawl seem to remember just as many hawick boys throwing punches...anyway its done now an apart from that it was a good game. As for the reds u got its less than the 4 sent off at chirnside last season an ur management team wasnt punchn your own players

As I had nothing to do yesterday,I took a run to Peebles to take in Tweeddale Rovers v West Barns,,I watch a lot of football at this level all be it mostly Lothian Ams,to say I was impressed by Tweeddale Rovers is an understatement,,very young,,fit and well organised team playing against a more expierianced West Barns team who were hard but fair ,the game was a joy to watch in the heavy conditions with both teams trying to play good football,and for a change the referee even had a good game,,always reading on here about poor refs,poor teams,,well no complaints yesterday,,it's how amateur football should be played and reffed,,well done both teams!!

CFC BOWHOLM 3,WINTON 2;
Quite a good game once both teams settled,Bowholm were the more clinical in front of goal and this was enough for them to be crowned cup winners,coming from behind to lead 3-1 at half time they naturally sat back and soaked up severe pressure from Winton whos only reward was a goal that could have been chalked off for a foul on the keeper,that set up a nervy finish .Winton deserve great credit for the way they continue to play a passing game when lots of teams would have resorted to route 1 football . The cup final was played with a sporting attitude from both teams and was a credit to the 3rd division
