Craig fae the Vale

My wife's American. She calls her purse a wallet. They're a strange breed

Renton Craigandro 0-12 Bishopton. SWFL Division Two West/Central The newly formed Renton team's first home match and I would gate to see what a good team would have done to them. It'll be a tough learning curve for them if they even last the season, quite a few of their players looked to have totally given up in the second half.

Irvine Meadow 1-0 Cumnock Entertaining game settled by a very soft penalty. Game was riddled with mistakes but never short of entertaining throughout. Meadow just about shaded it for me and the result was about right.

Bishopton 1 -1 Pollok United SWFL Division Two West/Central On Sunday Not the highest quality of game, but a reasonably entertaining way to spend a couple of hours

Rangers are still at Benburb's ground, New Tinto Park, but until it's brought up to SWPL1 standards it will count as their alternate ground, as these only have to meet SWPL2 conditions. They can do this for four games, and they say the ground will be ready after that. I think all they'll need to do is cover 200 seats. Apologies, I couldn't get this section to quote in the app. Does this mean that Rangers/Benburb are finally covering the seats at New Tinto? That will be a fantastic addition to that ground

I was hoping to pop along to this game but not surprised to see East Kilbride blanketed in snow. Might have to search out an alternative

Newtongrange Star 2-4 Penicuik Athletic yesterday. Cracking game with Penicuik coming from 2-0 down to win

I just finished "My Best Friend's Exorcism" by Grady Hendrix. A horror-comedy that's never short of fun and entertaining throughout. Well worth a read if you're into that type of thing or looking for something a bit different.

If other teams look as scared of you as Colts did yesterday you'll win the league at a canter. 3-0 wothout having to get out of second gear. Really impressive looking team this year

Cumberland Colts 0-3 East Kilbride in the Lowland League yesterday. EK didn't even have to get out of second gear, Colts were absolutely awful.

I've been gifted a miniature of Glenfiddich 18. I can't decide whether to try it this weekend out of sheer excitement or to keep it for a more special occasion

They used St Mirren Park, Firhill, East End Park and McDiarmid Park for the preparatory tournament, so I wouldn't be surprised to see those four used

Yeah I've downloaded the demo and will get it fired up over the weekend. Hoping I like it, I'm itching to get into it.

Haven't bought a FM game in a good number of years now, but feeling the itch and think I'm gonna get it when I get paid tomorrow. Is this version worth it for someone who hasn't played in years?

Pollok 1 Glenafton Athletic 1 in the Junior Cup replay on Saturday. Pollok won on penalties when their keeper saved all three of Glenafton's efforts. Not the best game I've ever seen but I was working about 10 minutes away until the back of 1 and it was a perfect opportunity to finally get to Newlandsfield

Vale of Leven 7-2 Annbank United. Cracking afternoons entertainment even if the weather was howling. https://wp.me/p9JWWD-lu

My wife is a high school librarian and informed me last night that all the cafeterias in Glasgow schools are now called "Fuel Zones". I've been thinking about it all day, it has annoyed me so disproportionately

Came in to say that Texas/Oklahoma game was absolutely incredible. OU 21 points down going into the fourth, bring it back level only for Texas to snatch it with a field goal with 9 seconds left. Outrageous entertainment

Went along to Braehead last night for the first time in quite a while and had an absolute blast. Forgot just how much I enjoyed a hockey night. https://piesontheterraces.wordpress.com/2018/10/06/glasgow-v-fife/

Wigtown & Bladnoch 2-3 Annan Athletic Reserves. Cree Lodge Cup First Round on Saturday. Wigtown the better team and 2-0 up but some sloppy defending cost them in the end. https://piesontheterraces.wordpress.com/2018/10/01/wigtown-bladnoch-v-annan-athletic/

I'll hijack this thread with a report and photos from Wigtown v Annan on Saturday https://piesontheterraces.wordpress.com/2018/10/01/wigtown-bladnoch-v-annan-athletic/

Will be my first time seeing Welfare this season on Wed and I have the fear. Seen BSC a couple times and their defence has been honking, but if Welfare are shot shy then I can't see past a home win. Hopingbto be wrong

37 at Wigtown v Annan today

Another look at Ashfield v Vale of Leven. Very grateful for the above report, I had garnered Ashfield's teamline by recording the announcement, and had Hearton and Friel's names slightly wrong. My report has been amended to be accurate! https://piesontheterraces.wordpress.com/2018/09/24/ashfield-v-vale-of-leven/

A (n admittetly biased) look at Vale of Leven v Lesmahagow on Saturday. Gow worthy of the three points yes, but one of the worst refereeing displays I've ever seen. https://piesontheterraces.wordpress.com/2018/09/18/vale-of-leven-v-lesmahagow/
