Once again I was delighted with the players’ attitude as they went about their business with plenty of desire and commitment. I would obviously rather Moff had stuck away his late penalty as it would have been an easier final ten minutes or so for us all but anyway, we got there in the end. I am satisfied that we are keeping our head above the water as far as the league table is con- cerned. I think anyone who has a decent knowledge of football at this level will appreciate how tough this seasons’ Premier League is and if you take a close look at the league table you’ll soon appreciate what I’m talking about. Unlike previous years there are no whipping boys in this league and as far as I can see there are no easy games. The team currently at the bottom of the league [Shotts] are Scottish Cup holders and have recently made it through to the last eight again this season. Only two places above them are last season league champions and the club with possibly the biggest wage bill in Junior football, Irvine Meadow. Even at this stage the fight to finish above the play-off position looks like developing in to a tense affair for some reputable clubs. So, I know we’re not out the woods yet but taking everything into account I think our boys are currently doing okay and long may that continue. The big games keep coming again this week as we welcome Auchinleck Talbot to Holm Park. The Ayrshire outfit are currently hot favourites to win the Premier league and to be honest; it wouldn’t be a massive surprise if they added the Scottish Cup to that! Our first half capitulation at Beechwood in late October was probably our worst showing this season and despite gaining a bit of pride with an improved second half display, I certainly don’t want to find myself in a similar position at half-time in today’s game! Not that we need it but an added incentive for us today is the fact that a victory would move us into third posi- tion in the league due to Rob Roy playing a Scottish Cup tie, therefore I’m really looking forward to this challenge. If we are to take anything from this game we’ll need everyone in a Bankies jersey playing at the top of their game. The players will also need all the help possible if they are to achieve that target and once again any vocal assistance from the terracing would be appreciated.
