A Motherwell XI are playing Wishaw Juniors next Saturday to mark the official opening of Beltane Park, Wishaw Juniors new home ground.

 

Kick-Off is 2pm.

 

Good chance to see some of our younger players in action.

Ended up a fine game. 4-2 to the 'Well youngsters (mostly around 17yr olds!) playing some gey hairy-arsed big Juniors. It was skill and fleetness of foot vs brute force, but we won the day - and a trophy to boot. The Wishaw Cup. Medals an' all!

 

Heard that we were going to play a lot of the u 19's but they were playing up at Dalzell Park so the younger ones stepped in.

Must admit it was like watching a Faithers vs Sons game but the young ones showed them that skill and pace makes up for brute force and size.

Could have been even more if we had taken our chances in the last 10mins when we had a real go at them.

Big curly haired guy at the back No5 the No2 and the wee blonde No9 up front looked very good (sorry no team lines so don't know their names)

Just under 200, according to Wishae club secretary. Double their normal league attendance.

 

The 'Well goalie was superb too!

 

Maybe including all the players and officials!!!! Junior clubs are a wee bit prone to exaggeration.

Forgot about the goalie. The triple save he had in the 2nd half was superb.
