Good to see the Forth & Endrick back Craig. Will need to dig out the insect repellent .

Biggar United 1-0 Leithen Rovers @ Biggar Rugby Club ... a dip into the Border Ams last night. Walls Cup QF. The visitors on top in the 1st half but Biggar seemed to frustrate them with a high line and they snatched a winner 20 minutes from time. Crowd 43.

Last Saturday ... Manchester City 2-3 Liverpool @ Wembley Stadium 🏟. A brilliant 1st half performance saw Liverpool 3-0 up at half time before they survived a 2nd half comeback to reach the FA Cup Final. Crowd 73,793.

Spartans 1-4 Bonnyrigg Rose @ Ainslie Park last night. The Rose reach the South Challenge Cup Final with a deserved win. Ahead after 2 minutes, the woodwork did save Bonnyrigg twice at 2-0 but they led 4-0 until a late consolation. Sauchie or Auchinleck await. Crowd 400 odd.

It's a horrendous league. I've seen a few games and the standard is woeful. I’ve seen a few too. Just saying let’s no get too carried away about ourselves in the East .

It's a glorified amateur league. Lol ... let’s not kid ourselves on - most of the football at our level is. Too many too quick to rubbish the SOS.

Something positive I guess Newky.

Gala Fairydean Rovers 2-0 Dundonald Bluebell @ Netherdale on Wednesday night . Gala progressed to the semi finals of the East of Scotland Qualifying Cup with a deserved win. Both goals came in the 1st half which also featured a torrential downpour ️. Crowd 82.

Can only see a single point relegation for the Vale and another relegation battle for WW next season sadly.

Erratic is just the word HJ. I think some of the columns are out on your table.

Penicuik Athletic 1-3 Whitburn @ Penicuik Park on Wednesday . The hosts came flying out the traps but couldn’t find an early goal and Whitburn deservedly went on to win and blow EoS League Cup, Group K wide open. Bitterly cold conditions for end of March. Crowd around 175.

Penicuik came flying out the traps but the Whitburn defence stood firm and they went on to deservedly win at a wintry Penicuik Park. I’m struggling to see how United can still top the group HJ?
