Johnny Sox Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 No real surprise to see Kilbirnie fall out the race to go up. Who is going to be the other unfortunate team, Bens and Gartcairn seem to be in great form so I would go for Drum or St Cadocs to miss out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been working on the pavilion first getting that up to some sort of standard. Will be interesting to see if any work done over summer. Yeah Huntershill has its limitations and the council are not exactly proactive. Stepford for Easterhouse seems to be run or assisted by Fare Scotland and have seen small but welcome upgrades there. My main point is that for me the new clubs are to be encouraged. They are after all the future of the game and some have been involved in their communities for a number of decades now. Quietly smiled at that last sentence. There's more than a few folks on here quoting their clubs being around in three different centuries never mind decades and at the same level. I'll admit it's fascinating to watch a rerun of the origins of football in the West being played out in real time. Teams being formed and ceasing to exist in a year or two, amalgamations, money problems or just plain personality clashes. 2 clubs playing it out in the one area like an Abercorn v St Mirren. Or the four or is it five incarnations of Clydebank. You could replace Harmony Row for Linthouse or Rossvale for a Cowlairs or Northern, maybe even a Caledonian 3rd Rifles for a Caldonian Thistle. Here's to the two Kilsyth clubs being around in 2223. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's to the two Kilsyth clubs being around in 2223. First mate apologies for no replying. Not only do you get up early as a horse dad, you get home real late. Oh and up early again next morning to muck the buggers out and feed them. Horse's eat and eat and shit, a lot. Totally agree would hate if football was the same now as it was in the beginning. One reason I'm so done with the SPFL which is a stale, expired product. Think its great Darvel are shaking up the establishment, and looking forward to next season watching potentially Gartcairn, Drum and St.Cads mixing it up there. Along with the recently promoted teams from Div 4 strutting their stuff against some good old ex-joonyurs. Had almost stopped watching live football, but got time to go to the Threave v Kilsyth Ath game at Meadow Park in Sept., main reason was being a youth coach in Scumbie/Kilsyth for years had watched and trained a number of The boys playing for KA and also all the coaching staff so wanted to see how they shaped up against a trad team full of seasoned players. I was reinvigorated and have now become, God save or forgive me, a bit of a groundhopper. For me the tail end of the junior set up was getting stale and needed a revamp. The WOSFL it could be argued is the most vibrant set up in Scottish Football. And a big part of that is down to the new clubs being allowed in. Some will fail, some will flourish, some will merely exist. That's how it should be. Always hated the expression 'that's how it's always been'. Not for me thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PossilYM Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Still all to play for at the top of the league. 5 teams still looking for those 3 promotion spots. Gartcairn winning 4-1 tonight at Rossvale. Rossvale may or may not be known as Caledonian Thistle come July. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bestsinceslicebread Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 (edited) I took in the St Cadocs Vs Gartcairn game at New Tinto Gartcairn went in deservedly 1.0 at half time from a superb goal from their winger out of the left who took advantage of a slip by the St Cadocs player as he cut inside the penalty area to curl a superb goal past the keeper in the top right corner. Second half was end to end although not as many chances as I had hoped as both teams breaking down in the opposition penalty area when attacking. Gartcairn looked more compose don the ball, St Cadocs liked to push but both teams lost the ball when they tired to force the ball/pass etc.. During game, Gartcairn lost a few influential players and a mistake by the Gartcairn keeper flattened the forward and ref quite rightly gave a penalty which was coolly slotted home. Impetus was on St Cadocs who then pushed and pushed in the sun and definitely looked the fitter of the two but with a minute to go, good harassing ended in a melee and the ball ricocheted off both defender and keeper for the forward to slot home for the winner. I don't think anyone would have complained with a draw the way the game was going but Gartcain will take that, especially with Drumchapel, and Benburb both losing at the top. Enjoyable game Edited April 16, 2023 by Bestsinceslicebread 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gartcairn won the game 1.0 taking them to top of the table but Shotts constantly took the game to the Cairn team and their forward players with his powerful long throw was an extra attacking advantage. I'd say Shotts tried to close down Gartcairns threats and did well, although Gartcairn were changed due to injuries. The ref in the first half spoiled the game for both sides but more so Gartcairn but it was attakcing end to end and I will say as Gartcairn are a team who like to play out from defense but last night they kicked the ball long in the first half on nearly most occasions or was it MADE to do so down to Shotts layout when Gartcairn had the ball. As I said before, I'm surprised they are at the bottom end of the table 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sox Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Massive weekend at the top. Drum v St Cadocs Gartcairn v Bens Ladeside v Burgh. I'm going for X 1 X but these thre could go either way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sel0975 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 (edited) My first visit to Kirbirnie today and was expecting a home win. I watched them destroy Drumchapel at the end of Feb but not sure what has happened since. Poor from them today against a Johnstone Burgh side who deserved their away win. 3 great goals in the game, Kilbirnie almost snatched a late point but the Burgh keeper tipped an effort onto the crossbar. Looks like the end of Kilbirnie's hopes of promotion. Edited April 22, 2023 by sel0975 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
