Some action shots taken today in our 4 v 2 victory against Bellfield.

The boys have had a poor start to the season not reaching anywherr near there potential which resulted in a losing streak we didnt want.

The boys were going into this game unbeaten in 5 (1 friendly).

We raced into a 2 goal lead in the first 15 minutes woth goals from Tam and Cole. We were pressing and attacking constantly with our back four set up properly to combat there quick forwards.

After about 25 minutes Bellfield managed to pull 1 back via a long range shot which we failed to put over the bar. 7 minutes later they equalised with something out of nothing as the ball was played over the top for the winger to run on to, keeper didnt jave hos position right and the Bellfield player easily slotted home.

2nd half was a hard fought battle with both teams going at it hard but fair. Fortunately it was Shortlees that took the lead from another free kick from Cole and he was to go on for another goal shortly after to clsim his hat trick.

The full team battled very hard today and were unlucky to score more but it was a pleasent turnaround from the previouse game between the two.

All the best to Kenny and Bellfield for the rest of the season 👏👏👏.

Well done to Maureen on winning this week.

Arranged a friendly with our friends at Caley Colts down at Queen Margaret Academy tonight.

Good result for the boys..

4 - 2 Win..

Spoke to the boys before the game and told them we were going to trial a new formation as to bolster up the midfield and in attack.

In the second half, I would be bringing on the boys who weren't on in the first half.

Made 7 changes in the second half.

Performance from the boys from start to finish was brilliant.

Continuing on from St mirren game boys never gave up and kept fighting till the last minute.

Said to them at the end of the game that this is the level we need to be at on a weekly basis, and if they continue to bring that performance, they will win more games than not.

Well done tonight boys alot of changes, but a lot of positives along with it.

We go into training on Friday and will continue to work on the new formation with the boys.

Game v ST Mirren Youth

3 - 2 Win

After our last 2 league games we're postponed, it was good to get the boys some game time.

Good solid performance from start to finish for the boys today, even with 6 substitutions.

Made it hard for themselves at times but wouldn't be us if they didn't, lol.

But what impressed the most today was they never gave and kept on fighting till the final whistle.

Overall a really good workout for them and topped off with a win.

Well done, boys.
