A better weekend for us, depending upon how you look at it. We stay in 4th place but with a healthy lead before dropping down to the playoff places but there are still 4 games to go.

We entertained Q.O.S. and hit the ground running, only to be succker punched with the only 2 shots they put to keeper Bursik. Half time came 0-2, not what the doctor ordered. We changed a couple of things on the hour mark, and lo and behold, all came good. 3 goals in the 64, 65, 66 minutes turned the game around and we kept 3 points.

Away at Peterhead was always meant to be the more difficult game, as they are knocking at the playoff door. We went into a goal lead in the 5th minute, and looked good for it till the leveller came towards the latter part of the match. The 2 teams only created 3 shots on target so a draw was about right. Next weekend we go to Aberdeen and then entertain Brechin City.

Back after a short break in a hotel where putting in SESL was blocked by the hotel server.. Only this afternoon did I discover where we had stumbled/blundered.

We faced East Fife at home and in the 1st half keeper Slater kept out 4 of the 5 shots he faced, but we still went in 1-0 down and no on target shots. We changed things a little and 2nd half was mainly ours, creating 6 chances. In the 85th minute we sneaked into the lead 2-1 only for Paul's lot to grab a deserved (overall) point. We played 36 minutes with 10 men after winger Bagan got sent off - he will miss a couple of games at least but we did purchase a winger, Stevenson, in the final ballot so we are covered there.

2nd match sent us the long trip north (M9) to Inverness where we were fortunate to play a side looking to boost ELs on a few lads possibly with their SESL Cup Quarter Final coming up this Wednesday. (Whatever the reason we could have faced an even tougher team, and we were grateful for that.) We huffed and puffed with a decent lineup to break down the home defence and we did get the ball past their keeper for a needed 1-0 win.

Seems we will likely limp into the 1st division, but we are certainly making it hard for ourselves.
