SPFL Tier 4, Galabank, 8/4/23.
As my younger son said to me today the wheels are no longer in the vicinity of the vehicle. They are some way back down the road.
We somehow managed to scrape up five substitutes, one of whom, David Wilson, scored with fifteen minutes left from a free-kick. Far too little, far too late. We were well out of it by then.
It doesn’t augur well for your team when you lose a goal in two minutes and another two well before half-time.
After that I was expecting a rout but it didn’t get that bad. Maybe Annan were saving themselves for their next game.
On to Tuesday night at home to Stirling. If they win they’ll have clinched the title, bar an absurd collapse. A draw – or even a severely unlikely win for us – will delay that outcome.
