Jamie White Robert Brow n Brian Jack Willie Haston However, a replay was ordered after it emerged that Paul Taylor, who came Steven Herriot Tommy Brennan on six minutes before the end, was already cup-tied with Lesmahagow. Beith Colin Allison Liam Quilter won the third match 1-0 at Hannah Park and Shotts were also forced to pay Stepehn Low Letham Gardiner their travelling expenses as part of the punishment. Ross Jamieson SBA Golf Section Mark McKeever This means that in fact SBA have won only once against Beith at HP and that Oasis Flow er Shop was in the last match between the two on 16 May 2005 when goals from Paul Crumley Sandy McSeveney Brian Crawford and Paul Stewart resulted in a 2-0 league victory. Chris Gardiner Roy Ellison Hugh Kelly Bobby Groves All in all, the Bon Accord's record is much better at Bellsdale where they have David McInally John Kidd never failed to score whilst that last fixture was the only time we managed to Kevin Barr Alan Hutchison score at home against the Mighty.

Kirsty Hannah Betty McNeill Further losses to Cumbernauld Utd, Petershill, Bellshill Athletic and Renfrew followed before we were able to stop the rot with a 5-2 win against Jim McDougall Jim Ham ilton Cambuslang Rangers in early November.

DANCE Classes in Shotts Bon Accord The new union, COMMUNITY, was created by the merger of Social Club the ISTC and KFAT (the steelworkers' union and the knitwear and shoe workers' union), both with a well-known history of Every Monday & working on behalf of workers in their respective communi- ties, eg Motherwell, Bellshill, Coatbridge (steel), and Airdrie, Tuesday evenings Lanark, and Uddingston (knitwear, shoes). The new union has around 50,000 members and in Scotland the regional office is in Motherwell and can be contacted by telephone on 01698 304567. COMMUNITY seeks to recruit those who are employed but who have no union to represent them. Willie Paterson, Regional Officer, says, "We intend to be pro- active in the communities where we are known and our track record of good trade unionism will, we hope, stand us in good stead. We aim to be the new listening force within the areas where our members live and to offer support against injustice and discrimination. We are pleased to be associ- ated with Shotts Bon Accord FC and we have members who actively support this club." COMMUNITY wishes SHOTTS BON ACCORD FC every success in season 2007 / 2008 PAGE 37 PAGE 2 MATCH REPORT MORE ACTION PHOTOS FROM MATCHES Sectional league Cup Group 2 Saturday 4/8/07 Wishaw Juniors 2 - 2 Shotts Bon Accord On an absolutely miserable day, at possibly the only Junior ground without any semblance of protection against the elements, Shotts struggled through to take a point against the team which had effectively ended our interest in the SLC so surprisingly last season. Wishaw began the livelier and within five minutes of the kick-off, SBA were caught a swift counter attack. Stewart broke free from the left, getting on to the end of a long clearance the result a goal. It was 1-0. Bon Accord responded almost immediately and Gardner headed home from a corner three minutes later. If we thought it was going to get better then, we were very much mistaken as Wishaw continued to give as good as they got and, after 16 minutes they again took the lead when that man Stewart headed home a long diagonal cross from the right. 2-1. The thing is, it shouldn't have happened at all as the ref completely ignored the Bon Accord's cast-iron claims for a penalty kick immediately beforehand as Sneddon was hacked to the ground as he took possession of the ball. Gardner got Shotts out of trouble a few minutes later when he slammed a shot from outside the box low past the Wishaw keeper's for a very impressive equaliser. Halftime Wishaw Juniors 2 – SBA 2 The second half wasn't two minutes old before Hugh Kelly was sent off. John Boyack and Brian Jack came on three minutes later for a tired Sneddon and an injured McLintock. On another day Shotts could have scored five or six in the last third but we must also mention that Wishaw could have registered their second consecutive win against the Bon Accord but for a brilliant double-save by Andy McCondichie long before the end.
