SAUCHIE V BROXBURN ATHLETIC

What a disappointing day .As good as the guys have been playing ,  today was very poor and we got  probably what we deserved out the game . Without making excuses Jack Beesley’s slip on the very soft surface allowed them in for an easy opener before they doubled their lead from a corner .The third came when we were chasing the game .  We will learn from this and move on putting the disappointment behind us . The players know now how it feels to taste defeat in the league and will not want that feeling again any time soon .

Kristopher Goss has been put on the transfer list and the club are looking for offers for the player .
