Last Saturday’s Scottish Cup 1st Round replay victory over Colony Park at Holm Park might have HONOURS HONOURS SENIOR HONOURS been expected but it was still good to register a win and see the lads playing some nice football again. We created enough chances to score a few more and it was disappointing to lose a cheap Scottish Junior Cup Intermediate Cup SFL Division 2 goal in the second half but over the piece it was a step in the right direction. Winners : 1941-42 Winners : 1929-30 Champions : 1975/76 The second round draw has paired us at home to Lossiemouth United and with the greatest respect Runners-Up : 2008-09 Central League SFL Division 2 to our North Region opponents it is another tie where we should be looking to win and progress into the 3rd round draw. Hopefully we can do it without the need for a replay this time! Sectional League Cup Champions : Runners-Up : 1997/98 Our injury situation is looking a bit better. Joe Andrew will still be missing for a while yet but Ian Winners : 2013-14 1934-35,1940-41,1941-42, Spring Cup Gold’s injury has almost cleared and he should be available for today’s game. It was also good to get a bit of game time into Ross Harvie who has struggled to recover his fitness following on from a Runners-Up : 2005-06 1944-45,1949-50. Runners-Up : 1975/76 bad injury sustained towards the tail end of last season. Central League Cup Intermediate League Stirlingshire Cup Today we get back to Super Premier League action and I’m sure I’d be stating the obvious if I said it Winners : 1932-33,1934-35, Winners : 1929-30 Winners : 1978/79 & 1979/80 is vitally important for us to start putting some points on the board and with a couple of cup fixtures following this game it will be a few weeks before our next League game. Our opponents Arthurlie 2009-10, 2011-12, 2013-14 Pompey Cup Scottish Cup Semi-Finalists have, like us, made quite a few changes to their squad since last season but they have also recently 1989/90 West of Scotland Cup Winners : 1951-52,1960-61 changed their manager as a result of Gavin Duncan’s resignation. Junior Record Victory Winners : 1949-50 Evening Times Cup This can sometimes have a positive effect on the players as they attempt to impress their new boss therefore we should expect another difficult game but I’ll be looking for us to build on last week’s 9-1 v Thorniewood Runners-Up : 1938-39,1955-56 Winners : 1934-35,1940- winning performance as we strive to climb up the table. 41,1941-42,1944-45, 1949-50.

The Aberdeenshire side made it very hard for us in the first match to earn a second bite at the cherry. But it was pleasing to make it through in the end with a bit of style. Wish Bankies We scored some great goals - notably Stevie Gardiner's first-half strike at the end of a great move all the best and Graeme Ramage's brilliant free kick - and played some good football. Doing well in the Scottish Junior Cup is a huge thing. It earns additional revenue that can allow the club a bit of breathing for season space. Draws have been unkind to us in recent years and we have had a fair bit of bad luck on the 2014-2015 way.
