Life would be perfect for you if football clubs could run themselves without these volunteers who give of their time (and quite regularly their own money) and for whom you have so much disrespect, eh ?

The clubs voted. The WoSFL Board did not vote.

Rutherglen Glencairn 2023-24

Good to get back to winning ways this week after an improved performance last week. We made heavy weather of the second half from 3-1 up v 10 men after 50 minutes, but perhaps that was down to thinking the job had been done. When Neilston pulled it back to 3-2 with 5 minutes to play, we never really looked like conceding again, instead we upped our game and created several chances ourselves and got our vital 4th goal. So we stay in with an outside chance of promotion, although it's still a big ask. Next week we're away at Ashfield, and then we're away to Kilwinning Rangers. If we come out of those two games with wins then it may get interesting. -

Just one wee correction on that point. The LL had enough applications within the first day of applications opening to make the league viable. -

If a team refuses to play in the play-offs they risk losing their Scottish FA licence as they sign a commitment to the pyramid as part of their Scottish FA membership. -
For the record, Campbeltown Pupils were not "invited" into the WoSFL, and St Patricks were not "blanked". CP applied through the due process that was in place at the time, and the clubs voted to accept them as members at the AGM two years ago. The same applied to Knightswood who won the vote against St Patricks at last year's AGM, it was the clubs who decided.

Four wins and four clean sheets in a row for St Roch's. They look to be pulling themselves well safe from the drop zone now. They host Johnstone Burgh next week.

What struck me today was the attitude of a few Burgh supporters who were standing behind me at the Glencairn dugout. They were highly critical of their team only ten minutes into the match because they weren't dominating the game the way they expected to. They were calling for substitutions even before Glencairn took the lead in the 16th minute. There seemed a distinct lack of patience from them.

That was a big improvement from us today and I felt we were the better team over the 90 minutes. If you'd offered me a draw this morning, given the relative resources of both clubs and our recent form, I"d have happily taken it. But having led for half of the game it was a little disappointing not to hold on for all three points. But it was a big step in the right direction.
