Hong Kong Phooey Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 It's certainly going to be a fascinating end to the season. Every week I keep changing my mind about who will go up with ourselves and lanark. As far as winning the league goes we keep responding to lanarks results. I hope I'm wrong in saying our 2 home draws from winning positions doesn't come back to haunt us, however we have still had an amazing league campaign as well as our run to the cup final against Talbot.After last year, the management team and the committee have done a great job rebuilding the team. We can but hope results go our way but if both Lanark and ourselves go up, both teams have had great seasons. Both have had great results in cups, beating teams that gave us no chance from leagues well above us. Still chasing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the candy Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Still 3 up and 3 down, top 2 have been very consistent and great battle, some teams have done really well to get themselves back into promotion hunt. All still to play each other so many twist and turns remain on last promotion place but for me who ever can put a 4/5 winning streak in place would get it. Whoever that may be time will tell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vale of leven have as good a chance as any to be honest, it's going to be very close for third place. My prediction is Ashfield however it's going to be a great end to the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hong Kong Phooey Posted March 28, 2019 Author Share Posted March 28, 2019 Heard the red cards of recent weeks are catching up with Lanark this week. Looking for a goal keeper and appealing strikers straight red as short up front for weekend visit to Thorniewood. Will Thorniewood with new management get some points off the leaders?

I think Ashfield can ill afford to drop another point to thwart either Thorniewood or Muirkirk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hong Kong Phooey Posted March 30, 2019 Author Share Posted March 30, 2019 Good result for The Gow against a decent St Ants team. The Gows strong squad showed with the second half subs to change the game. 5.1 was maybe a bit flattering but 3 pts. Trannies were on for the Lanark game and heard they left it very late again to get the full 3 pts. Sign of a good team I suppose.

Amazing the difference after last week. One up after 3 mins. 2-1 down at ht but Cammy Lawson scored a free kick from 35 yds to equalise. The legend that is Shug Kerr fractured his shoulder last week but came on as a late sub. He was taken out in the 89th minute to enable us to equalise from the spot and then he scored a bullet of a diving header to win it for us 4-3 in the 94th minute. The free kick was given after a Thorniewood coach came onto the field and volleyed a ball in the air before marching up the tunnel in anticipation of a red card. I believe the ball was going out for their throw in!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lokforever Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 A bit harsh on the young keeper, the 2nd goal he was comint out to collect it and a defender ans Stewart got between him and the ball and Stewart got his foot to it first and the 3rd goal was offside, slightly hesitant in coming for the ball but no cover from his defenders. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also got away with the one that we saved off the line. I am unfairly comparing him with our normally excellent keeper. That said, it was not his fault we were so poor today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though we won 5-1 personally for me it was a bit of a sickener to find out lanark had won the match so late in the day after losing 3-2 with about 5 mins to go. However these are the type of scenarios that win leagues so well done. Still plenty of football to be played so there is time for lanark (or the gow) to slip up. Again well done and if lanark win I'll be one of the first to congratulate you bc. Also have you ever heard of this scenario before bc? We were up 2-1 (after trailing 1-0) and we were awarded a penalty, and our keeper sandy Thomson stepped up to take it and he scored. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We missed about 10 penalties earlier in the season by Lewis Hill has only missed one ( I think) and scored a pile including 3 in one game otherwise our keeper would have had to be on the list to try his hand. St Ant's are always difficult opponents so another good win for you. I was concerned going into today's game with Thorniewood desperately needing a win and us without 2 of our best performers. However, despite how poorly we played we dug out yet another victory. We have not had a single straightforward victory for months, which is a great testament to the fighting qualities of our team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
