Glens 2 Luncarty 2 First visit to Warout this calendar year, an opportunity  to reassess my own opinion of the current management pairings ability to take the club forward as they were up against the Bleachers who themselves are in a relegation battle.  After back to back hammerings from bottom half clubs Penicuik (5-1) and Haddington (7-0) one half of the deluded duo was in the press this week with the usual excuses that A. they’d players missing due to injury,  B. the ref was poor  and C. get this, it was windy Granted they were missing 2 or 3 regulars against Haddington at the weekend (a sign of things to come next season without Cargy ) but the previous game against the Cookie who are only one placing above in the league table they were almost at full strength. Obviously being reduced to 10 boys in the Haddington game was a big factor in that match but the co managers assessment that Smarty “  kind of got caught underneath the ball, it bounced awkwardly and he kind of pushed his arm out” kind of tells me exactly what happened and the red card was kind of warranted. As for the “blowing a gale” excuse, I’ll treat that one with the contempt it deserves.  Back to last nights match and Martins claim that  “It's the biggest game of the season so far…..In my eyes it’s a must win game. We’ve got six games left and I’m looking to take nine points as I think that will keep us in the league."  I disagree it was a must win game having scoured over the remaining fixtures but was certainly one they couldn’t afford to lose. He’ll now be looking to take six points from the fixtures against Crossgates and Inverkeithing For me that point earned last night with a late equaliser after a poor showing from both sides will kind of be enough to see them remain in this league. The big question is, are the chairman and his commitee happy for more of the same next season or do they harbour any ambition to take Glenrothes forward because like I said at the start of this season neither of the “we can con Pete” in this league, duo have the tactical noose.

How not ?  Sean got as much money to spend at Cupar as Dick has at  East Fife
