Shuggie 123 , that's a fair analysis of the game yesterday, very close game , only difference was we took our chances, Murphy free kick was a belter too, all the best for the rest of the season.

Just watched the goal highlights from Gartcairn v Whitburn and what jumps out is the absolutely amateurish defending at the first goal - players still jogging into position as the corner is being taken, 4 Whitburn defenders either static or backing away from the only two Gartcairn players attacking the ball, and the usually dependable keeper flapping as the ball comes in. Hopefully the new manager can do something about this area of the team as that is where Whitburn have struggled most all season - Whitburn played 3 rounds in the Scottish this season, conceding 3 goals in each game. As we saw yesterday, the forwards can't always be relied on to bale the team out. Gartcairn gave Whitburn a lesson in finishing as the visitors squandered 4 or 5 clear chances before the opening goal. Whitburn were chasing the game when goals 2 and 3 went in, so can't read too much into the final score.

Well done Gartcairn though. Looked a good team and best of luck in the next round.

Thanks very much mate.

 

All the best for the rest of the season
