COWDENBEATH FESTIVAL

SPURS 4 ROTHES 1

RUTHERFORD 3, BAND

ROTHES SCORED FIRST IN THIS OPENING GAME, BUT SPURS DREW LEVEL ALMOST STRAIGHT FROM THE RE-START WITH RUTHERFORDS LEFT FOOT DRIVE. BAND INCREASED SPURS LEAD WITH A WELL TAKEN GOAL, BEFORE A FURTHER TWO GOALS FROM RUTHERFORD SEALED THE WIN.


SPURS 2 ST JOHNS 1

MURRAY, RUTHERFORD


IN A HARD FOUGHT GAME SPURS OPENED THE SCORING WITH MURRAY HEADING HOME A WELL TAKEN FREE-KICK FROM BAND. RUTHERFORD MADE IT TWO FOR THE SPURS AFTER A PASS PUT HIM THROUGH, & HE FINISHED WELL. A COUPLE OF GOOD SAVES FROM BARCLAY KEPT OUT ST JOHNS, BUT THEY PULLED A GOAL BACK NEAR THE END.


SPURS 0 KELTY 1

SPURS HAD TWO GREAT CHANCES TO OPEN THE SCORING EARLY IN THIS MATCH AGAINST A TOUGH KELTY SIDE BUT FAILED TO FIND THE NET. KELTY SCORED THE WINNING GOAL WITH ONLY FIVE MINUTES LEFT, & ALTHOUGH SPURS FOUGHT HARD TO GET BACK IN THE GAME THE GOAL WOULDNT COME.


SPURS 2 L.K.B 1

STUBBS, RUTHERFORD

STUBBS OPENED THE SCORING FOR SPURS WITH A THUNDEROUS LONG RANGE EFFORT THAT GAVE THE KEEPER NO CHANCE. RUTHERFORD MADE IT TWO FOR SPURS AFTER GOOD PLAY FROM MURRAY & MCINTOSH ON THE LEFT RUTHERFORD CUT INSIDE & SCORED FROM A TIGHT ANGLE. L.K.B SCORED A CONSOLATION GOAL WITH A FEW MINUTES REMAINING.


SPURS 2 ROTHES 5

STUBBS, RUTHERFORD

THIS PROVED TO BE ONE GAME TOO MANY FOR THE SPURS, WITH SEVERAL PLAYERS CARRYING INJURIES & NO SUBS SPURS WERE UP AGAINST A FRESH ROTHES SIDE. AFTER ROTHES TOOK THE LEAD, STUBBS LEVELED FOR SPURS WITH ANOTHER LONG RANGE SHOT THAT FOUND THE BOTTOM CORNER. WITH THE SPURS PLAYERS NOW OUT ON THEIR FEET ROTHES SCORED THREE QUICK GOALS, BEFORE RUTHERFORD PULLED ONE BACK. ROTHES SCORED THEIR FIFTH JUST BEFORE FULL TIME.

A FANTASTIC EFFORT FROM ALL THE SPURS PLAYERS OVER THE FIVE GAMES WITH EVERY PLAYER GIVING THEIR ALL.
