A last gasp goal from Kyle MILLER saw us safely through to the second round of the League Cup at a rainy Broadwood Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

 

David GRAY had fired the Bully Wee into the lead in first half injury time with a well struck shot but six minutes into the second period Lewis MILNE shot home an equaliser before good play from Johnston and Higgins saw Miller slot home our dramatic winner.

 

 

 

A shadow side ran out narrow winners in a friendly game at Central Park on Monday night. Former Central Parker Robbie Neilson brought a strong starting line up to Central Park, while for the second half he changed his entire line up with a more youthful side.

 

For our part Jimmy Nicholl took the opportunity to give our fringe and under 20 players a run out along with a few trialists.

 

Not surprisingly Hearts dominated the opening 45 minutes with Robbie Thomson pulling off a few good saves to keep the score level at the break.

 

The second period saw us come more into the game and we got what proved to be the winner in 70 minutes when Reece Sawers latched onto a short pass back and slotted the ball home.

 

Minutes later a similar defensive lapse by the visitors saw Kyle Mitchell in a good position but the youngster sent his shot over the bar.
