A victory snatched from us
« on: February 17, 2018, 01:12:55 AM »
Colts 2-2 Gala

The omens were not good before the game: no O'Neill, no Sean Brown and a young goalkeeper straight into the first team. To make matters worse, Kirwan was taken off injured during the first half. However, despite the warning signs we scored the first goal and matched Gala in the first half although losing a goal soon after our first just before half time.
The second half was a different story: we improved while Gala faded. We took control, scored a second goal and looked as if we would add to our lead but........the fates were against us. In the closing minutes we lost a goal very much against the run of play. The game ended in a draw but it felt like a defeat. Perhaps Gala are our bogey team.

Big challenges ahead that could determine who will win the league. We have already taken five from six points from BSC but can we also upset two of the other major contenders: East Kilbride and the Spartans. We will have to be at our best.
