Next week The Glens are away to Cumbernauld United, while Thorniewood United are playing their cup tie that was postponed today. Also next week it's Maryhill v Larkhall Thistle, so another win could potentially see us 11 or 12 points ahead at the top. And look at the goal difference !
We do have a lot of away games still to come, 7 of our 11 matches so far have been at home. But we don't have any choice or influence about how the fixtures fall, all we can do is take advantage of the home games, put the points on the board and make the others catch us.
I'm still refusing to even think about us having a good chance of getting promoted, honest.
