Chairman’s Update
August 18, 2008
Sat 16th August
2nd XI League Millbank 0 Spartans 3 (Michael Moffat, Nick Reid, Gary Bannon)..off to a winning start and there should have been many more goals. If Gary can score against them it had to be quite straight-forward but strikers Moffat, Reid and Forbes were I’m sure keeping the goals for when it will really matter!
Sun 17th August
Womens 1st XI League Cup Forfar 1 Spartans 4 (Debbie McWhinnie, Hayley Lauder, Kate McGillivray, Shelley Kerr)…a comfortable win to set up the first league game of the season this Wednesday
