Third Division 23/24


Recommended Posts

Gow 0 Lanark 1

Well deserved derby win. Should have been by a much bigger margin. Missed 4 excellent first half chances, incl 1 absolute sitter and then another sitter right at the death by our brand new striker Chris Kelly who could have had a debut to remember.

Lanark had a player sent off on 50 minutes but this was evened up 8 minutes later when Schonville got a straight red for deliberate handball so the advantage was quickly lost.

Lanark badly affected by injuries and Bank Holiday absences ( like many no doubt) but good to see the lad Bulloch back from injury, who played so well on his first and only appearance for Lanark.

We were inept, tactics were rubbish. Sat too deep. Never offered much midfield to front. Perplexing substitutions. 

No where near good enough considering what was at stake.

We had players missing too but no excuse for serving up that dross.

Your goal came from a corner that should never have been, it was your player that headed it out and ref gave you the corner. It wasn't even debatable, he clearly headed it out.

Don't get me wrong it doesn't detract from how poor we were and we could still be playing on Monday and wouldn't have scored.

We were surprised when the corner was given and I don't think we even appealed for it.

Only Kello have scored fewer goals than Lanark so far this season. 10 in 8 games. Missed 5 excellent chances today, 2 absolute sitters.  Something we have to rectify if we are to continue to climb the table and challenge for promotion.

Quicker than that, lesmahagow no4 was off for treatment  he came back on then was subbed, so 10 v 11 was less than a minute actual play.

Unlike last season with VoC and AWR, there is no stand out team in this division, despite Bellshill's very good start to the season. I see lots of team's taking points from each other therefore too early to predict who will go up, IMO.

Lanark are quite literally a different team to the one that started the season so poorly, for example , and will have an influence on the promotion places.

Lanark 1 Finnart 1

Poor two points to drop today. Keeper error in first half saw us go 1 down very much against the run of play. Once again 2nd half substitutions made a difference although it was a CB who bundled our goal in. Finnart keeper had two excellent saves near the end to save the point for them.

Port Glasgow 0 Lesmahagow 2

Good win on the road, especially after a dip in form over the last fortnight.

Played at a fast pace. Gow scored against run of play. Would say Port shaded first half possession wise. 

The Gow came more into it in second half and ran out worthy winners.

On to cup duties now, until the end of the month, when we play Greenock.

Tidy wee set up at Parklea, was my first visit.
