GIRLS VISIT KELBURNE ON THURSDAY NIGHT

15 Mar 2017

The weekend gets off to an early start with the Women's 1st Team's Thursday night trip to Glasgow Green for their fixture against Kelburne (2000). The girls had a good win against Watsonians on Saturday and will be keen to consolidate their top four place with another victory. Kelburne are currently eighth and scrapping for points to get out of the relegation play-offs so they will no doubt provide stiff opposition. This is one to get along to and lend your support if you possibly can.

 

Another side in eighth place and fighting to avoid the relegation play-offs are our own Men's 1s. They have come through their last couple of (difficult) fixtures having played pretty well but failed to garner any points. They now have a run of games against teams very much in the same situation as themselves and must turn performances into results. Western welcome bottom team Gordonians on Saturday (1500) and a win is crucial. Given the improvement the Aberdonians have made since Christmas, this is by no means a foregone conclusion and the boys will have to be on form to prevail. This is another game where a vocal support would be very welcome.

 

The Men's 2s play Stepps 2s at Glasgow Green and must feel confident of a win against the bottom side in Central 1. Western only managed a point from two games at the weekend but played very well in their defeat to league leaders Grange. Here's hoping for a victory on Saturday. The 3s are also at Glasgow Green (1500). They face Kelburne 3s and will hope for a bit of consistency following very varied recent results. The 4s have a tough looking trip to Dumfries while the 5s host Clydesdale 5s (1330).

 

The Women's 2s and 3s are both away from home, to Hillhead 3s and Giffnock 2s respectively.
