WEEKEND ROUNDUP

31 Oct 2016

It was a weekend of contrasting halves with a clean sweep Saturday but a wooden spoon Sunday.

 

First up on Saturday were the 4s who finally got their first win of the season against Dumfries. Western dominated possession but contrived to go 2-0 behind. Sam Edie pulled one back before half time and a second half Vishal Marwaha hat-trick saw Western home.

 

Next, the 3s saw off a very inexperienced and ten-man Dundee Wanderers 4s in their Reserve Plate fixture 15-0. Credit to Wanderers for making the trip when it would have been easy just to forfeit.

 

With the undercard out of the way the Men's 1s entertained a well organised and competent Erskine Stewart's Melville in the Scottish Plate. Western took until just before the interval to go ahead. The second half saw the home side stretch away with the game finishing 6-1.

 

The Women's 2s drew 3-3 with Grange 3s before winning 3-1 on penalties and the Men's 5s' excellent form continued with a 2-0 win over Helensburgh 3s.

 

Yesterday the Women's 1s lost 4-3 to Grove. The 2s were beaten 4-1 by Troon and the 3s lost 3-2 to Strathclyde University.
