A good win today on a surface that affected the flow of the game in large spells. A frustrating 1st half where we were the team in ascendancy but failed to create much but go in 1-0 to the good. 2nd period we got more of a grip on the game and went on to put the game to bed 🔴⚫️

Next up we have the reverse fixture from a couple of weeks ago against Neilston AFC where we were less than impressive. Looking to raise our performance levels considerably if we are to get a result here against a team in red hot form 🔴⚫️ ⚽️ Eddlewood 🆚️ NeilstonAFC ⚽️

Unlucky to lose out today after taking a first half lead and then adding pressure at the end to try and earn a point. Good battle against a good physical side and one we can take positives from 🔴⚫️

Result from the weekend A 90 minutes where we were on top for the majority. Took a 1-0 lead early in the 2nd and were unlucky to concede 10 minutes from time taking the game into a penalty shootout which we came through to reach the Quarter Finals 🏆🔴⚫️

A long bus journey and miserable conditions throughout the 90 minutes made worth it as we head home with the 3 points. Lochgilphead took the lead after 15 minutes but we score 2 before the break to turn the game on it's head and run out 2-1 winners 🔴⚫️

A week off from football to recharge and prepare us for the last push of the season to give us the best chance of ending the campaign on a high. Tough game this weekend against Campsie AFC but one we go into in decent form 🔴⚫️ ⚽️ Campsie 🆚️ Eddlewood ⚽️

Dissapointing afternoon in a game we just never turned up in and lose out on the chsnce to gain promotion with 2 games remaining of the league campaign. Let Campsie dictate the majority of the game allowing them to get into dangerous areas too easily and we pay the price 🔴⚫️

Started well as we went 2 up inside 10 mins. Westerlands keep themselves in the game grabbing a goal before the break to go in 2-1. We then seen a level game at 2-2 with 10 mins to go before the final whistle but we show character to regain the lead and see the game out 🔴⚫️

We go 2 for 2 in the Spring Cup Group Stage with another solid home performance. Up 2-0 just after 10 but clawed back to 2-2 before taking the lead again just before the break. Rallied on in the 2nd half to add a couple more keeping it tight at the back to secure the 3pts 🔴⚫️

3 games, 7 days and 9 points for the lads. Went 1-0 up on 5 mins and added another on the stroke of half time. EK convert a penalty 10 mins from time but we hit back straight away to restore our 2 goal lead. A goal at both ends late on sees us come away 4-2 winners 🔴⚫️

Heartbreak in the Challenge Cup QF Down to 9 men, we battled back to 2-2 with a last-gasp penalty from Colin Galbraith, but fall short 5-4 in the shootout vs Kirkfield. Proud of the fight, proud of the season. We go again in August. ⚫🔴
