As long as they're for my team, of course !

 

 

This was a terrific game at New Southcroft Park this afternoon, with this being the only junior match to be played on grass in the Glasgow area to survive the overnight frost, which is terrific credit to the groundstaff.

 

The Glens moved up to 2nd place in the table thanks to a 92nd minute winner, after conceding what seemed like a disastrous equaliser in the 88th minute.

 

We now have the chance to go back to the top of the table next week if we can beat Vale of Leven at Alexandria (MartyC, will you be there ?), with leaders Thorniewood United on Scottish Junior Cup duty next Saturday.
