Analysis & Tactical Takeaways from Edinburgh City Match-
Gala had 62.4% possession, completed 166 passes and produced 56 attempts, scoring 25. Their high press appears to have restricted Ed C to one attempt, while 45 interceptions and 22 tackles repeatedly stopped play developing. Possession was concentrated in midfield and the attacking third, and 82.1% of shots came from inside the box, reflecting frequent access to close-range opportunities. Danny Nicol, Finlay Prowse, Mackenzie Noble, Charlie Douglas, Leo Carter and others contributed goals, while the clean sheet meant Archie Cossar was not required to make a save.
Some stats below for the season so far.

Dalkeith Thistle Cardo v Gala Fairydean ROvers 2013s
Gala Fairydean Rovers drew 4–4 at home with Dalkeith Thistle Cardo in this match. Our side led twice in the first period, but the score was level again after 67 minutes.
Analysis & Tactical Takeaways
Our team had 53.8% possession, completed 187 passes and created 20 attempts to the opponent’s 14. Danny Nicol scored once and assisted Mackenzie Noble twice, while Noble added two goals and Charlie Douglas scored the other. Most of our passing was concentrated in midfield, and 75% of attempts came from inside the box. Defensively, though, the opponent scored four times from 14 attempts, with 78.6% of their shots also inside the area. The 56.6% of action on our side of the pitch suggests we spent significant time defending our half despite having more of the ball.
Review - A good first match for the boys with a valuable point in our first away match of the season. Game was preety evenly matched with both team creating excellent chances.

What a weekend for the boys. This was our second year at The Edinburgh Cup after winning the 3rd place final last year.
We were faced with a tricky group containing North Berwick FC from our SERFYA league.
Our fist game was against North Berwick which ended with a 3 -1 victory, We followed that up with a great win against Dundee United SC and then made it 3 out of 3 on Friday after beating St Andrews.
Saturday was a bit of a different story with a hard game against Shankill which ended in a 3 nil defeat. The boys needed something in the final game against Falkirk and they managed to battle to a nil nil draw.
Sunday saw us playing in the 2nd place final against Eastside Rapids at Ainslie Park.
Both team were looking to win the final but it was Gala who started off looking the team most likely to score. Eastside kept the ball but never really offered a threat and it was Gala who broke the deadlock with a lovely free kick form Aaron to out us 1 nil ahead. Eastside never gave up and eventually got an equaliser midway through the second half and the game ended up going to Pens.
Gala scored the first 4 and with the pressure mounting Eastside failed to convert the 5th kick. This gave our final penalty taker Archie the chance to win the game. Archie finished his penalty in style and celebrated by removing his top.
Massive thanks to everyone we played and all the organisers for another great experience. Hopefully be back next year to try and go one better.
