Dundee out as well, after a pasting by Elgin City.

Just booked to go up to Fraserburgh on Saturday 21st September by supporters bus to see my local team Bonnyrigg Rose [top of Lowland league] play Fraserburgh [top of Highland league] in a Scottish Cup tie.

Would probably give them a run for their money.

Bonnyrigg go up the Scottish League 2 of they win the Lowland?

How's the transition been from the Juniors?

Winners of Lowland play Winners of Highland
Winners of that play bottom team in league 2
Winners goes into league 2 -Cove Ramgers last season.

Bonnyrigg lost unbeaten record yesterday to BSC Glasgow by 3-1
Think either the or Mega Bucks Kelty Hearts managed by Barry Ferguson will win the league.
Better standard of football from Junior and Bonnyrigg have taken to it well.

A magnificent win for the U21s tonight in Croatia, they won 2-1 with both goals coming from Aberdeen's MacLennan.

Two wins out of two for the lads.

There is talent there - 3rd in the Toulon Tournament then 4th the year after that ; semi final of the U17s 4 years ago ; back to back U19 tournaments.

Kris Boyd's comments last night were bang on. He's a bit of a slaver, but he was right about the whole thing.

SFA are absolute dinosaurs though ; we should hire more foreign managers at under age levels rather than the jobs for lads set up e.g Billy Stark is coaching the 19s again.

Anyhoos after the Russia game - it's three games to get some momentum going for the POs. San Marino ; Cyprus and Kazakhstan. A one-legged final vs Bulgaria at Hampden then a final vs someone of Serbia/Norway/Israel. Hmmm...

Anyhoos back to club fitba noo.

Fort William 1-0 Clach,
Fort's first league win for 860 odd days!

[kevin04]

Just back from Gayfield, and probably a fair result of 1-1.

Arbroath started fantastic and really got in amongst Thistle and deservedly took the lead from a Jason Thomson bullet header past Scott Fox. Thistle gradually got themselves back in to the game, and by the end of the match if anyone was going to knick it might well have been Thistle - although a terrible offside decision denied the Red Lichties from taking all 3pts.

A deserved draw probably and going by the stats, it certainly seems that way - 50/50 ball possession ; 9 shots to 10.

Arbroath now have 8pts and are up to third. A very, very decent start - who knows those draws may well keep them up. It'll still be a difficult season but we'll see what happens.

Thistle look very comfortable on the ball, but unfortunately you don't win matches for rolling the ball back and forth *Insert that Simpson's GIF of their impression of football/soccer*. Caldwell lives another day, so we'll see if he can turn it around or not.

You should have asked for the referee from last Saturday to officiate, kev.

It was David Munro - he was pretty terrible for both sides. Looks about 5'0 if that as well, would hate to see him with a drink in him?! Wee man syndrome.

Thistle actually looked good with the ball at their feet, just didn't do anything with it. A weird side - feel like its going to go either two ways now for them : bad or very good and in the playoffs.

Fake forum meat on the 7th or 14th at Gayfield, Shedders? Play Dundee and then Utd back-to-back. You might bring through more than the home support in total! There was 1,214 there last night -probably 200 Jags fans (not bad at all for a Friday night game 90 miles away)

Gary Caldwell sacked.

Gary Caldwell sacked.

Just heard kev, no surprise he had failed at every club he's managed.
That's the end of his managerial career,unless he buys a newsagents.

After going over two years without a win,Fort William FC record their second win in a week with a 5-0 victory over Vale of Leithen in the 1st round of the Scotch FA Cup.
Mon the Fort!
