Father Ted

Gow 1 Larky 0 Gow scored early in first half. Had a penalty saved. Larky down to ten men midway through second half. Larky never really threatened our goal to much. Brings Gow back into promotion hunt. Result was perfect antidote to losing late goal down there to lose 5-4.

Gow 4 Newmains United 0 Could have been double figures if the Gow had been more clinical. A great fourth goal from Ross Marchant rounded things off on a fine evening at Fortress Craighead.

Gow 2 Kello Rovers 2 2-0 up early into second half and contrived to lose two goals and get a man sent off. Happened too many times this season, dropping points from winning position. Baw is burst regards any lingering hopes of promotion. Only positive, pies were well good.

Gow 3 East Kilbride Thistle 0 Routine win. Could have been much more. EK manager needs to stop getting his team to play out from back, as they clearly can't do it. Several opportunities were given to us, as a result.

I know our defence hasn't been up to scratch for most of the season and that's why we might struggle to go up but it was a surprise how bad yours was considering your quite vocal about promotion. You won't be going anywhere unless that defence sorts itself out We lost ONE more goal, hardly a barrowload.

Larkhall Thistle 5 Lesmahagow 4 FT

Larkhall Th 5 Gow 4 The Gow were far too passive in first half, went in 2-0 down. Larky scored early in 2nd half to make it three. Then the Gow revival started, got two quick goals. Larky then scored from a breakaway up the park 4-2 Maguire and Coffey came on like men possessed. Maguire scored, then Weir scored from a free kick, with keeper blundering 4-4. At that point, only looked like one winner. Gow hit post and shot just over the bar. Larky then scored with a few minutes to go, catching Gow on the break. The Gow deserved more out of it, if they hadn't been so passive in first half. Larky are good middle to front, however their defence is an absolute car crash.

With top six having between 10-15 games to go. I wouldn't discount anyone. Expecting and actually happening can be miles apart. I wouldn't have expected VOL to get result against Larky, nor our defeat to Carluke. Midweek fixtures beginning soon that adds another myriad of possibilities. The Gow have been on a run of good form, discounting Carluke and there were circumstances. Looking forward to the game down at Gasworks. Write us off at your peril.

They aren't closing it, just pausing. I would be disappointed if the above was the case. It could be just as easily be a positive outcome.

SFA licensing will be pausing accepting membership applications until Autumn this year, due to membership process review, whatever that entails. That's straight from the SFA licensing board. As my club had made an initial application

Lesmahagow 5 Dalry Thistle 2 FT

Gow 5 Dalry Thistle 2 Gow raced into 3-0 lead by half time. 3rd goal from Paul Woodlock was goal of the season contender. Dalry woke up a bit in the second half. Gow went 4-0 up early on with a quality finish from McStay. Dalry had a wee spell and got a goal back. Gow replied with a fifth from the penalty spot, only to be pegged back with another Dalry strike. Gow had a few opportunities after that but couldn't take them.

"Racisty an aw". ?? I was referencing the pic to the episode it was from.

The Chinese, a great bunch of lads. Defo more hair than me. Although the lampshade hat is more my style

The days before health and safety. Bankings were regularly festooned with folks at the Highland Games in the 80s

It was a Scottish Cup game versus Irvine Meadow in late 40s. Think the crowd was 20K plus.

Super sexy Scotland Feck your tiki taka.

Take that you Paella munching, rattled menchild of Spain. Cmon Scotland

Clarke masterclass incoming, ala Killie v Gers during his time there. 1-0 or 2-1 Scotland.

Carluke Rovers 3 Gow 2 Rovers got an early goal, then followed by penalty to make it two. Gow centre half sent off, double booking, booked for penalty then red for dissent to ref, should know better. Gow battled away in second half, you would have thought Rovers were the man down. Gow brought it back to 2-2. Rovers caught Gow chasing third, and made it three. Sore one but only ourselves to blame.

4-0. Dykes and Adams to have a field day against these jobbers.

The Gow were a bit more dogged in second half but bar the McStay chance, we didn't threaten your lead at all. Which as far as I'm concerned isn't good enough, considering the importance of the match.
