Whitburn lose out to Glenrothes in a game of two halves

Whitburn still remain top of the Super League but dropped three valuable points to the bottom side Glenrothes today in a proverbial game of two halves. Whitburn raced into a two goal lead by the midpoint of the first half thanks to goals from Gary Brass - a penalty after he had been tripped and Andy McQuillan - a header after the ball looped off a home defender. It seemed almost inevitable that they would go on to win the game handsomely as they were moving the ball far better than their hosts. The game, however, turned on a corner in injury time as the towering centre half Gavin Moffat headed in at the back post to give them a lifeline. Just after the break Whitburn passed the ball well about the Glenrothes box but no-one took responsibility to shoot and the ball was cleared up the pitch and John Martin cut inside his man and fired a great shot into the bottom corner beating a diving Andrew Wilson. Tails up, Glenrothes then looked the more likely to get a winner and, sure enough, it came with six minutes to go when Scott Napier got on the end of a deflected shot from Moffat and slid the ball in off Wilson to give his side an unexpected but deserved win. There will be no full report for this game as the above summarises the key action.

After the match we learned that Harthill and Armadale had drawn 1-1 in the League Cup, a result that means Armadale qualify from the group.
