Victory for 1st XI in first game on the FieldTurf
Posted on Tuesday, December 30th, 2008
The 1st XI beat Newtongrange Star 2 – 0 tonight in a friendly under the lights at the Academy. Daryl Devlin and Alex King scoring the goals. There was a large crowd of nearly 200 in the first half but it reduced in the second half as the the bitterly cold conditions meant the lure of the cafe and SkySports became more popular. The team was Flockhart, Hair (Song), Hoskins, Fowlie, Archibald, Gerrard, King, Manson, Walker, Devlin, Kader (Opati).

Alex - scored second from 20 yards
