THIS QUARTER FINAL TIE IN THE ALEX JACK CUP SAY GRETNA 2008 COME TO SAUGHTON ENCLOSURE.A GOOD GROWD BROUGHT SOME VOCAL SUPPORT FOR BOTH TEAMS AND AFTER A OPEN START TO THE GAME A LONG THROUGH BALL CAME BETWEN DEFENCE AND THE 18YARD LINE SAW GRETNA GO 1.0 UP.

LOTHIAN PRESSED AND AFTER A SHOT FROM GARY BLACK WAS WELL SAVED(AND COULD HAVE CROSSD THE LINE SAYS GARY) SHAGGIE SHOT HOME. 1 1 AT HALF TIME IN A OPEN GAME WAS FAIR.

THE SECOND HALF BROUGHT THISTLE A CORNER AND FROM THE BADLY TAKEN CORNER GRETNA CAME AWAY ON THE BREAK TO MAKE IT 1.2

LOTHIAN HAD THE REST OF THE GAME AND SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT THEM TO EXTRA TIME BUT FURHER MISSED CHANCES SAW THEM LOSE OUT IN THE CUP THEY WON LAST SEASON.

A GOOD OPEN GAME THAT SAY GRETNA KEEP THERE RECORD IN TACK AND LOTHAN WOULD WISH SOME OF THERE CHANCES WERE PUT AWAY AS THEY DID LAST WEEK.

LOTHIAN TRAVELED TO PEEBLES TO PLAY THE PEBLES SIDE TWICE IN TWO WEEKS, IN A WINDY AND HEAVY PARK LOTHIAN PLAYED THERE USUAL GOOD FOOTBAL THAT BROUGHT FIVE GOALS IN THE FIRST HALF, GOAL SCORERS ABOVE IN A DAY THAT PEEBLES WILL ONLY GET BETTER AND LOTHIAN AGAIN SHOWED THAT THERE FOOTBALL CAN BRING ENTERTAINMENT AND GOALS.
