A balmy day in Brechin😎

Felt quite confident to going to Glebe Park today,hit 3 sets of temp traffic lights from Lanark to Falkirk and the Green showed every time,when your lucks in its in.Picked up the boy Cottam in Camelon and her indoors didn’t fancy a run to Angus(again)so it was just me and Tony to sing along to Daniel O Donnell on the cassette player.First stop was Costa of course,at Kinross service station,where prices are so dear,rip off should be added to the signs.Anyway I digress and it wasn’t the greatest start as I watched Burnley beat Spurs in the Brechin bar,well I watched it on text as the Hedgemen don’t have Sky in the bar🤬We finally exited to take in the game in sunshine,last year it was beast from the east,today it was best of the west and the stage was set.The gaffer,Faz,rang the changes and new boy Ali McCann made his debut with Cammy Elliot and Adam Cummins coming in replacing a injured PJ Crossan and not so injured Jao Victoria and Andrew Macdonald who was suspended.The blues made most of the running in a good opening spell,but surprise surprise were made to pay for some slack defending when Euan Smith popped up to score for Brechin.I had just stopped swearing when Kyle Turner produced some lovely work on the left hand side and Innes Cameron scored with a pass from KT,1-1 and all to play for.I hadn’t even finished my pie from H-T when Max Currie made a fantastic stop with his left foot to keep the scores level.The winner came from a free kick just outside the D,when Jamie Hamill smashed a shot into the net,a slight deflection but they all count.The remaining part of the game was very tense,could we hang on for our first victory of 2019 ?The answer was Yes yes yes and happy days are here again.Lovely touch from the gaffer at the end to come and thank the supporters,us fans appreciate that👍So Stenny on Tuesday at Stair Park,a follow up would be nice.I rounded off going  to a Chinese called Yang sing,I don’t know about Yang,but I sang the praises of Stranraer to anybody who would listen🤯And finally I wasn’t particularly close to my Dad when he died,which was lucky for me as he trod on a Land mine😎⚽️
