BROXBURN ATH V NEWTONGRANGE STAR
Not our best performance of the season with chances not being taken and allowing Newtongrange to get into the game after starting so well .They opened the scoring on 44 minutes with a deflected Kyle Lander goal and Ross Nimmo scored a wonder strike on 64 minutes to share the points .Better performance will be needed at Penicuik next week if we are to continue our good away form .( Full report in matches and fixtures )
FIXTURE UPDATE
Only next Saturday’s fixture has been issued and we are away to Penicuik Athletic in the McBookie Superleague with a 2-30pm kick off .
