Marten Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 For today plenty of games were off, mainly for Covid reasons. That included Lochee United v Dunipace, which was my original plan. Plans changed a few times since but I ended up at New Victoria Park for Newtongrange Star 0-2 Darvel. The guests took a lead early on, which I managed to capture on a photo. The hosts had some chances to draw level until Darvel scored their second, but I think this was a fair result. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig fae the Vale Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Dumbarton 0-0 Morton tonight. Not the best game I've ever seen, but enjoyed my evening. (I know it's not strictly random because I've always followed Dumbarton, but I very rarely go see them anymore and I didn't know where else to post it!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig fae the Vale Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Aberfoyle Rob Roy 5-6 Gartocharn in the Forth and Endrick League tonight. Eaten alive by midges, but what a game! Amazing comeback from Garto, who were 4-0 down just before halftime. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was mainly cut grass that hadn't been cleared and had therefore died. Still can't have been much fun to play on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jute Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) Edinburgh United 0-1 Ryton & Crawcrook Albion. Summer football in the pissing rain. Edited July 3, 2021 by Jute 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonS Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Lossiemouth 3-1 Colony Park. They never said anything about it being behind closed doors, so I joined a gaggle watching over the wall from the railway path. Turned out my Google Maps reconnaissance during lockdown for grounds where you could watch from outside came in handy.Standard pre-season fare, Lossie were clearly the better side although the result was in doubt when the visitors pulled it back to 2-1. Lossie got another in the last couple of minutes to make it 3-1. Stand-out feature was the pitch - like the rest of the ground around here it's bone dry and yellow. Badly in need of the forecast rain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marten Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Today were the last competitive games in Scotland of the 2020/21 season (as far as I know). So I decided to go to Glasgow Women 3-2 Queen's Park Women in SWPL2 at New Tinto Park. Good, open, game. Glasgow Women were the better side, so the win was deserved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've yet to grasp the logic of building open seats rather than something with cover, even if it was only a small enclosure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure who thought people would prioritise being able to sit over being able to have cover in a ground in Glasgow... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considerably older, but Maryhill also has uncovered seats. Other than Wee Dublin end at Morton (which doesn't really count as its wooden benches) struggle to think of another example in Scotland, certainly if we're talking proper structures.

Still outstanding are a QF, both SFs and Final of 2020-21 Aberdeenshire Cup... QF + first SF are this Saturday; other SF next midweek; Final a week on Saturday. Plus there are still a SF and Final from 2019-20 South Challenge Cup to be completed... SF on Saturday 31st July and Final on Sunday 15th August. Indeed it will have taken 6 days short of 2 years to complete 2019-20 South Challenge Cup . R1 was played Saturday 24th August 2019.

Craig fae the Vale Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Wild game in the Forth and Endrick League tonight, it finished Gartocharn 6-6 Deanston. Deanston led 3-1, then Garto led 6-3 , before 3 late goals got the visitors a point. Never dull watching Garto! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
