Whitburn win big at Kennoway

Apologies for the extreme lateness of thisupdate and the lack of a report as I was not able to attend this game - but got a very pleasant surprise when I learned that we had won 5-1! Kennoway started the game in a high pressing manner but it was Reece Duncan who opened the scoring in the 18th minute when through one on one with the keeper.  5 minutes later Gregor Jordan for the home side was red carded but this did not quell Kennoway’s enthusiasm and, as so often with Whitburn, it was the ten men that scored next when  on the half hour Jason Watson levelled the scores. As the game wore on, however, Kennoway’s ran a little out of steam and their cause was not helped by a second red card for Lewis Grierson.  Both factors told as Whitburn added four more goals in the second half through an own goal forced by Greg Nicol's persistence, Martin Russell, Darren Liddell and Reece Boyle in the 62nd, 77th, 87th and 90th minutes. There were two negatives in that both Daniel Moran and Greg Forrest had to be replaced through injury but both should hopefully be OK for today’s game. Of note, this was the second big win over Kennoway this season as the home tie ended in a 7-2 victory. Also the win takes us to fourth in the league and only 4 points behind the Thornton, Livingston and Fauldhouse who all sit on 22 points.
