Nithsdale 1 Annan Ath 5 (H/T 4-0)

Critchon won 3v1.
Heard Saints were beating Threave. Any truth.

Saints were 2-0 up bot threave got back to 2-2. Threave had 2 men sent off in last 5 mins of game....rightly so, should have had more sent off, got very dirty at end of game.

who got sent off?

Stranraer 4 Newtown 3. Could have been ten for Stranraer.

Liam Patterson and Scott Wilby. Draw was harsh on saints who dominated 1st half although 2nd was more even! Both sending offs were just especially that wankers Wilby hes more intent on whining than playin that guy!

Wigtown 4 Creetown 1

MIDS 2-1 HESTON, WAS GOING ON 5 OR 6 FOR MIDS MISSED SOME EASY CHANCES, AND "NO" COCKY DIDNT SCORE FORHESTON,HE GOT SUBSTITUTED!!!! HAHAHA

Can see the transfer request tommorow.Will lose 5% off the transfer fee (thats a lot of crisps).

Watched Nithsdale v Annan tonight - Annan deserved to win but Nithsdale will be disappointed with the goals they conceded, 3 of them coming from guys unmarked at the back post.

After Nithsdale made it 4-1, they had a great chance when the keeper Dougie Calder raced from his goal, the ball fell to a player 30 yards out but he shot wide of an open goal. Then a good ball in behind the Annan defence found a Nithsdale attacker but he shot wide to! It should have been 4-3 at that stage.

Graeme Bell scored twice for Annan, his second goal was thanks to a lovely piece of skill that took out a defender and then a cool finish. I was impressed with the right winger Ryan Adamson (No 7) and the centre-half wearing No 6 was also strong.

He must have been carrying an injury if he didnt score and was sustituted . Cant wait to see the legend in the flesh, it will be the highlight of my season unless he manages to get on the scoresheet and prove to us all that he really is the brightest new talent in the South West if not the northern hemisphere

slightly harsh calling him that? how are jamie clarks legs? heard it was a heluva clatter?

The same way they probably always are - fine until Saints go a couple of goals down

Threave never turned up 1st half, fluky 2nd goal for Saints, Bread and butter for Vinnie. There was some dirty tackles coming in from Saints too (Murray on Sam springs to mind!) but totaly agree with Wilbys sending off, was an awful tackle, and really put Threave up against it with around 5 mins to go.

Chuffed with the 2-2 result tho, hanging on by fingernails at times, unlucky their number 2 with that chance in injury time.

Impressed with Jamie Clarke, he played well and worked hard, but Jim Kirk , every time he went to win a ball he gave away a foul! Bring back Rodney Niven

I find that comment very disrespectful to be honest. These reserve players are supposedly on the fringe of 2nd Division football. Stranraer have the pick of the local players due to some folk believing they can actually breakthrough. Now whether you think thats realistic or not it doesn't really matter.

Lets face facts here though - a team of players who some think can play in the professional leagues scraped through against a team who have very little resources or choice in comparison. There was only 1 goal in the game in the end up regardless of what you say. Even once Stranraer has taken their pick of players you have other clubs who are paying money and enticing players with sums we couldn't possibly pay out.

Before anyone throw up the 'Stranraer young team line' I will give you a few facts on that basis as well. We fielded 1 player in our starting line up over the age of 21. By my calculations Stranraer had at least 5 over the age of 21 in their starting line up.

Harry Fidler did have a number of good saves in the match but to make out it was all one way traffic is a bit unfair on the smaller team who had a decent go at upsetting the odds. Stranraer had a number of close things but surely thats to be expected given the circumstances.

Pretty fair assessment. Agree with Jim Kirk, not a bad player but still a wee bit raw and tendes to lunge at every challenge although he did have one or two decent tackles. The Threave midfield was lacking and I don't know why but Vinnie looked very dodgy in the first half, to me it looked as if he was carrying some sort of injury.

The two sendings off were warranted and Patterson was lucky not to receive a straight red for his lunge on Razor. I have to agree with Twynhoms's view on Scott Wilby, an utter bawbag of a man. His antics when Threave equalised were petulant and childish and, in my opinion, there is no need for behaviour like that. If I'm honest there was always the chance that he would finish the game before any of the other players last night.

Fair opinions but i cant see how you can say that about Jim Kirk considering you had two of your defenders sent off and a third booked.

Do you condone Liam Paterson's actions that got him sent off? From the noises coming out of the changing room your management team sure didnt.

Overall a brilliant game its definately the best derby in the SoSL.

I can see the Heston manager getting the sack for pulling a stunt like that on cocknaldo

Dbt star 6 - 2 Fleet star

I didn't see Pato's 1st yellow card, but someone said he took a swipe at Maxi when they were celebrating the equaliser? Is that true? No wonder Davie was going mad!

The No7 is the best player I have seen in the Southern Counties for years.

what......... better than the one and only!!!!

I was talking footballers.You are talking Superstars.

I was not being disrespectful atall and I am sorry if it came accross that way. I am sure posters on this forum know the situation with the reserves taking the pic of the bunch and so on. That was the reason for my post being so short. I think you would be being pritty nieve if you feel the score line was a fair judgment of the game.
Fair play to you and your team and I understand how frustraiting it must be for you to attract players.

ha ha ... do you think cocky would make the a e all stars team

There is a big difference between suggesting the scoreline flattered us a bit (if you had said that then fair enough) and making out it "could have been ten for Stranraer". Perhaps the margin could have been a little wider if Harry hadn't played so well or the Reserves had finished better. Thats part and parcel of football though mate. At no point did I say the score was a fair judgement - but we are obviously going to try and take the positives out of it. Our boys can hold their heads up because we played some reasonable football in spells. It was never ever in danger of getting anywhere in the region of what you are suggesting. Your suggestions of what would have been a more realistic scoreline are niave IMO. Football is all about opinions though and I respect yours even if it does appear incredibly biased.

Ryan Adamson is an excellent player, I think he is planning on going to america next year on a scholarship.

Im not going to be disrespectful either so I wont comment on a certain players very short performance for Stena tonight Bit naive to think that by pushing a player they werent going to get sent off

I reckon Cocky should be left alone now (although I doubt he will be) he`s obviously a naive young boy who has made an arse of himself and is obviously embarassed judging by the fact that he has not posted anything since his infamous comments.
Heston are obviously a bottom three team of kids and could do without the agro.
It was funny while it lasted though

Going by what some others got away with the certain player could maybe have been forgiven for thinking that . By the way there were no sending offs in the game.

God theres some handbags getting thrown around here is there not!!! i was also at the game on Wednesday night and i have to agree with Marf-1870. The score-line flatterd Newton! They should of got beat by a very heavy score-line. God where you actually at the game??

Nice that you could be bothered to create a brand new account just to post that! Seriously though I have seen games where one of the teams bag 10 goals and they are a lot more one sided that the one that was played on Wednesday.

Yes the score line slightly flattered us and mainly due to a great performance by our keeper. But are keepers not expected to have good games. If a striker scores a hat trick should we be saying 'ah but if it wasnt for their striker scoring 4 goals they wouldnt have won that game'. Keepers are expected to save shots, u cant count every effort as that should have been a goal. Comments like Murdy should have had 6 goals! (official website). He never scored 1 so to say 6 sounds a bit unrealistic- doubt he had 6 shots. Undoubtedbly our keeper played extremely well and had a couple of saves that did majorly help us so thats why I would agree that the score did read better than it should for us.

And come on give us a break our young team didnt have the experience of the Stranraer Under 19s, sorry I mean team of 17 to 23 year olds, sorry I mean ...... who knows!!

least 5 over 23 to in reserve teams

was at wigton and they won easy, creetown very poor an will struggle

I HEARD THAT "COCKY" HAS BE BANNED FROM POSTING ANYTHING ELSE ON HER BY MANAGER BOYDY, IF HE DOES HE'S OUTA THE CLUB??

The whole squads been banned from posting on here.
