Was at the game today was a game of two half’s imo, Hurlford by far the better side in first half. Shortlees midfield were way off the ball and getting over ran by the thistle three. Second half shortlees came into the game and got a dubious penalty (was hard to see from other end of the park where I was). Lees brought on subs who seemed to inject some life in to them and in the end up a draw would probably be a fair results for both teams. The league is wide open. Good for the neutrals and Ayrshire amateur football as a hole!

Agree with this. Kenny Parris was running the game until he tired second half. Shortlees midfield non existent until Ritchie Mullen came on. Referee was really poor and made a lot of strange decisions. 3 red cards for nothing especially the one for knapp for diving when it was as clear a pen as you will ever see. Thistle should have been 3 up at Half time but paid the price as shortlees raised their game second half. A lot of that probably to do with the fact they could make subs and looked an awful lot fitter

Shortlees bench is the strongest I have seen. When you can bring on 4 players who have won everything in the game its good to have.
Aaron Mason is only 18 and has been outstanding recently. He will learn from today. Rocks followed him about like a wee dug all game

Yes mate agree. Young number 10 for shortlees was a bit of a passenger today. Parris was excellent first half. The introduction of Mullen and Connell made a difference for shortlees. Two questionable red cards aswell. The ref was always going to look for a chance to even it up with the reds

Shortlees always struggle against thistle no matter the form book. That was a thistle team missing a few and had a coach at right mid who needed to play 90 minutes as there was nothing on the bench. The squad shortlees have at the moment is arguably better than the one that won everything, Joe gold apart, yet were dominated for 45 minutes. Lundie never gave knapp a sniff until the crazy penalty decision. Thistle always turn up against shortlees though apart from the obvious one exception at burnpark. It's like Aberdeen when they play rangers lol

Play each other again in Ayrshire Cup 1/4 so I'm pretty sure the Shortlees management will take note of today's proceedings [emoji106]

Yep the two subs for shortlees into the midfield swung the balance. If they had started may of been a different story. Done and dusted now. Would like to see the other two play each other now Glenburn and New farm that will be a good game!

All the neutrals cuming in their pants over this match it's hardly a 2 horse leauge, at this point it's a 6 horse race, NF, Glenburn, Daily, and Tarbouten are all still in with a shout, looking forward to the second half of the season, closest it's been for years

Aye fair point well made however you want to bet a monkey right now that first and second are the two every neutral came over today? In any order that is and btw I wasnt at the match
