glensmad Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Larkhall Thistle v Rutherglen Glencairn tonight, friendly at Gasworks Park, for anybody interested or in the area and looking for a match. Kick off is scheduled for 6.30pm or as close to that as possible, allowing for both teams to get there and also allowing for enough light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glensmad Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 Apologies, he must have been beside big Neil Schoneville as it looked like a free header for Neil from where I was standing. But I'll take your word for it. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big wall 82 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Wasn't the best of games but thistle are early promotion favourites I'd say, although choice of keepers begets beliefs as big Allan colquohon is number 1 but getting on bit and still a great keeper, didn't understand why the guy they were calling hooda or booda got a game before the big guy, who had clearly better handling positioning and vocal ness , although thistle have a few players who could be playing higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big wall 82 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Glencairn needs to wk on set piece defending as free headers were ten a half pence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glensmad Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 Our defence consisted of a trialist, two midfielders, and a centre half returning after 7 weeks out with a broken foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big wall 82 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Played a lot better yesterday good to see things coming together at the back just a bit more communication at the back and we could push pollok all the way here's hoping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday was very encouraging though, I'll give you that. Coming through the group unbeaten is good given the selection problems we have had, but we still have some important players to return, e.g. Galloway, Neil, Low, McLaughlin.

We need a 2nd goalkeeper, but JC Hutchison is one of the best junior goalies around in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big wall 82 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Totally agree but a second experienced keeper is well required it's all about having a squad that can compete Hutchison is a top goalie but if he's pushed he can only get better we can't rely on one keeper although wee Ballantine assures me he's a bit if a cat lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
