To put on a performance like that yesterday with 9 players missing was a delight to watch and the only thing missing was the finishing which was a culmination of sitters , great goalkeeping and just downright bad luck 
 

haxton - injured 

marr- injured

perry- working

meggat - injured

mcd - injured

robertson - injured

miller- suspended

ferns - working

mcpherson - injured 

 

that was nearly our team pre season and league cup and to stay near the top of the table is testament to the squad we have 

we now move on to Blantyre next Saturday who are THE form team in our league and It’s probably good we go in as slight underdogs 

come on the vale 

 

 

Is there a reason why so many are injured?  When do you anticipate getting back to full strength, some of the players mentioned have hardly kicked a ball for you.  Its difficult coming back at this time of year, heavy pitches, cancelled games etc.  Always felt that one of the issues when players move down a level is with regards to fitness ie they lose it quite quick.  Seen it before, some players it doesn't work out, others take a season to settle in, but I think they need to get as many games under their belts as possible.  When you signed the players were you aware there may be issues with work commitments?

It looks a lot more than just Pollok and Talbot at this stage. Meadow going about their business well, never rule out teams who have been done it before in Beith and Hurlford too.

Pollok are picking up points while not playing well and nursing injuries meaning, which is a good sign. However 3 huge league games coming up next and if offered 3 draws would take them now!

For a team who isn’t Talbot to win the league they need Talbot to not have a season like last, to drop a handful of points over 30 games is impressive, it needs a ‘normal’ title race for someone else to win it. 3 or 4 teams fighting for the league and therefore taking points of each other and hopefully off Talbot would open it up, but a long long way to go.

Notice Fanny of the Juniors desperate to have a childlike spelling of Pollok. Obsessed by us.

 

How are Pollok feeling after those 3 games?  Did you deserve more than one point over the three games?
