LOTHIANTHISTLEHV v BROXBURN ATHLETIC
Was a disappointing night drawing at rain soaked Saughton enclosure .With heavy going and torrential rain it was a credit to both sides to play through tough conditions . Having gone 1-0 down which was the score at the break . We came out the second half and raced to a 3-1 lead only to lose two goals in the last five minutes to share the spoils . Crossgates at home on Saturday and we will endeavour to bag the three points . Check social media for streaming details .

SAUCHIE V BROXBURN ATH
Very disappointing not to follow up Tuesday’s win at Dunbar with a win today at Sauchie . Thought the game was going to be a 0-0 stalemate before we lost two late goals, no excuses we move on to next fixture . We move on now to Wednesday evening when we go into Edinburgh to play LothianthistleHV in the rearranged league match already postponed two times . We follow that up with a home game against Crossgates next Saturday before we start our Scottish Cup Campaign a week on Saturday away to Newton Stewart . Unfortunately we can not stream Wednesday’s match but will be streaming the two games after that so tune in and enjoy .We will keep you posted on social media events at Saughton Enclosure on Wednesday .
BROXBURN ATH V IRVINE MEADOW
Disappointed to be knocked out the cup today with a 3-0 defeat off Irvine Meadow . Losing Gordon Donaldson early doors to injury was a blow and we hope he is quick to recover . We will need to put the recent run of games behind us as we head to Dunbar United on Tuesday to play in the League and hopefully come away with the three points
