Edinburgh City


Recommended Posts

Cold and a bit breezy at Galabank. 

Fairly even opening stages. Trialist City goalkeeper had a good save early on. No-one knows who he is btw.. Annan were playing quite well, City had a couple of chances. Swinglehirst then gets a straight red, we weren't sure why- possibly for an elbow on Shepherd- and this seemed to change the game in City's favour. 

Liam Henderson headed in a corner after half time and Danny Handling scored a nice tap in to seal the points. Tbh I would have taken a draw at Annan as its not the easiest place to win at but a 2-0 win is rather satisfying. Pity about Cove's late show..

City ran out comfortable winners without hitting top gear. Game over for Annan when Swingles was sent off... no one had any idea why - possibly arguing with your no 19 on who is most ginger! Balatoni looked a class above this level and rate him as best (ball playing) defender in this league. Annan probably left it too late to worry you until the introduction of Nade providing a goal threat which until then was missing.

Definitely only two teams in this years title race. Very little between you and Cove football wise and at least you brought a full complement of subs with you!

Fair play to whoever runs your social media putting all that effort in and getting about one response each time. How they could be arsed going on with it I’ve no idea. 

Ready for your Derby day hiding on Saturday Muzza? 

 

(Yes it's a Derby and a rivalry to us 😉

What is the latest news about the Meadowbank Redevelopment, and City's future location, both short and long term ?

No idea. How big is your back green...?

What is interesting is that Leith Ath seem to be more interested in moving to St Marks Park in the event of Craigroyston going defunct than returning to Meadowbank as might have been expected.

Big enough for table football, and about 50 spectators albeit with poor views of the game, even from the trees..

Seriously, it doesn't sound promising.

Good chance for us to go top of the league today for the first time this season.

Still gotta win a tough game first, but would be nice to finally get in front of Cove, albeit with a game more played.

Also brilliant news about Lairdy signing a new contract. He's one of the top players in the league.
