Largs Thistle 1-2 Clydebank

West Premier for us today with the Bankies down at the Seaside. Couldn't see a thing but the seaside none the less, something Falkirk fans are familiar with I believe.

Barrfields is good, this will be cracking on a sunny day. Plenty room behind the goals, formally greyhounds or speedway?

Game itself wasn't wonderful but two late Nicky Low goals sparked wild celebrations in the away end. Well worth a visit, maybe come in the summer though. 

P.S. one for Clyde and Dumbarton fans, Martin McNiff has an doppelganger that plays for Largs, and as far as I'm aware he isn't related

Broxburn Ath 8-0 Vale of Leithen

Easy win for Broxburn against a very poor Vale team. Broxburn’s second and third goals were pick of the goals. Only 105 in attendance but suspect miserable weather put a few off. Vale looked like they would struggle in division below and don’t think their slide through the divisions will stop next season on this evidence.

Kings Lynn Town 1-1 Gloucester City. 

Att: 1013.

Bad day at the office for The Linnets. City well worth the draw.

Renfrew Ladies 3-0 Dryburgh Athletic Women. 

A comfortable win for the home side in an SWF Championship tie. The wind a big factor.

Also at Broxburn yesterday, straightforward enough, the pies and sausage rolls excellent, nice ground. The VOL kept going to their credit, don't know where they find their level tbh. Some good stuff at times, why are Brox not higher up the league ? At Ravenscraig today for Motherwell Albion v Glasgow Irish 7-0 (Lge) and then Motherwell Villa v Maryhill Black Star 0-5 (west cup) Maryhill goal flying in !

Cracking day out on the train yesterday with Crow Junior for Newcastle United 0-2 Liverpool @ St James Park . FA Premier League. The visitors get off to a flyer after a brilliant early Alisson save with Nunez ️ (10) & Gakpo ️ (17) with Nick Pope then red carded preventing a likely 3rd (22). Plenty of chances at both ends but no further scoring. Crowd 52,271.

Maybe not the right thread, but I am off to Austria on Thursday, Kitzbuhel to be precise. Any sides near that I could get to on the Friday or Saturday? I was tempted to get a train up to Munich for Bayern V Union on the Sunday but bit of a bugger to get back from and I am flying back early Monday.

Can't see anything within about 3 hours drive on Friday or Saturday on FlashScore. Might be worth downloading the Futbology app and checking nearby fixtures when you're there. The app covers the Austrian leagues down to the fifth tier, so you'll hopefully be able to find something.

Kitzbuhel has a team playing in the 3rd tier but that level is on winter break until March.

If they're on winter break, that'll explain why I couldn't find any fixtures.

My teams division. We beat Oxgangs 3-0 up there in August. Lost 4-3 to Broomhall. Still got to play both again in the coming weeks.

Ah good stuff Connor. Broomhall were impressive on Sunday pretty dominant display. Could see why they were 2nd. Oxgangs bottom been a bad season for me then.

At K Park for spfl reserve cup Motherwell 1 Kilmarnock 1 MWell level late on and win on pens 42 for bonus point, but Killie go top and into 1/4 finals. Decent game with most chances going into the Calderglen Park behind ! Killie gk beaten from 25 yds, a lonely place .

Albion 3 Elgin 0  first goal important and the confidence grew among the Rover's players. Impressed by Joe Bevan, skilful and pacy. Elgin rarely threatened a comeback, crosses and half chances their best offer. Fair play to the visiting fans who made the journey down.

Mid Annandale 2-7 Caledonian Braves 

Southern Counties Cup action for us tonight at New King Edward Park Lockerbie. I mean, what else would you possibly want to do with your time on a Wednesday night?

Now, I am a huge critic of League teams playing in cages but if they were more like this it would be fine. Nice compact stand plenty room in the standing sections, an actual wooden pie hut and some of the cleanest toilets I've ever used.

Good game too, Mids scored after no more than 15 seconds and then again after 3 minutes to race into a surprise 2-0 lead. This shocked their 5th tier opponents and Braves did dominate most of the game once they found their feet. A goal back after 50 minutes gave them hope. Their dominance paid off with a deserved equaliser after 70 minutes and got the winner to complete the come back with 15 to play. Braves score four late goals to turn it into a bit of a pumping in the end.

Portland Park : Troon 1 Pollok 0 thought young Troon battled hard and chased everything.The 1st red card didnt help, a stupid challenge on the touchline, but the Lok's final ball let them down, although two late chances could have levelled - header should have found target. (red card Pollok melee)

Oxgangs haven't been great for a while now tbf, but to their credit they've never thrown the towel in.

Sadly my club are starting to toil a bit, and myself and my mate who run it have got too much going on outside of football to devote the time needed to build it back up. So get along and watch Broughton while you can!

Centenary Shield u18 Scotland v R of Ireland 0-0  ft at Renfrew. Att probs 3-400. The Rep  had better chances and bit more fluent, the young Scots better when they pushed up and pressed. Enjoyable night.

Leith Athletic 4-2 Armadale Thistle King Cup 2nd round. Friday night entertainment under the lights at Meadowbank. Penalty aside first half was all Armadale who should have been more than 2-1 ahead at half time. Leith much better in second half and ran out worthy winners. Lovely strike for 4th goal. Both sides reduce to 10 at the end but not sure what either card was for.
