A Son of the Rock

SPFL Tier 3, The Rock, 9/4/22.

It all started so well, with space opening up in front of Josh Oyinsan about five minutes in and him spanking a cracker in from outside the box.

We were dominant for the rest of the half and had innumerable corners but failed to get efforts on target from them.

As soon as they got their corner with about a minute left in the first half I just knew we’d concede. I think it was the only effort they’d had.

Second half they were more in it but didn’t add to their tally. Neither did we.

In stoppage time we finally got an effort on goal from a corner, a George Stanger header, but their keeper made a brilliant save.

We’re still four points behind Peterhead with only three games left and the next two of those are against the top two. We’ll likely be seven points behind after them.

That’s it then. Ninth at best, and another round of nail-biting play-offs.

Who’d be a football fan?
