The Fortress: Goalkeeper and Defence 🛡️

Our back three, plus the man between the sticks, have been nothing short of immense, keeping crucial clean sheets and showing incredible leadership.

• 🧤 Rory Burns (Woodbank FC): Our undisputed No. 1. Burns has been a wall, pulling off saves that frankly defy physics. He’s the reason Woodbank FC bagged those vital points—a true Guardian of the Goal.

• ⚽ Ryan Whiteside (Third Lanark AFC): A classic, reliable defender. Whiteside reads the game like a novel and is always in the right place at the right time. A masterclass in defending simplicity.

• 🔥 David Logan (GCR): The engine room of the defence. Logan brings the fire and passion, with crunching tackles and a relentless drive to win the ball back. Opponents think twice about running at him!

• ⚡ Finlay McPherson (Kings Park United): Pure speed and energy down the flank. McPherson is the modern full-back—quick in recovery and a constant attacking threat. His runs have been electrifying.

The Engine Room: Midfielders ⚙️

This is where the magic happens! Our midfield quintet has controlled the tempo, unlocked defences, and provided the steel needed to win the central battle.

• 🎯 Scott Sneddon (Woodbank FC): Precision personified. Sneddon is the kind of player who can thread a pass through the eye of a needle. His assists have been right on the money—a true playmaker.

• ⚡ Morgan Sechaud (Busby AFC): Another injection of pace. Sechaud’s ability to transition defence into attack in a flash has been key. He’s simply too fast for most opponents!

• 🎩 Tahir Bhatti (Glasgow Ansar): The magician of the team. Give Bhatti the ball and watch him weave some gold. His close control and stunning vision make him a joy to watch.

• 🔥 David Connolly (Rhu Colts): All action and enthusiasm. Connolly’s work rate is phenomenal, covering every blade of grass. He brings the fire that ignites the whole team.

• 💪 Liam McGeachy (Southside United): The midfield powerhouse. McGeachy dominates the physical battles and protects the defence with serious intent. An absolute rock in the centre.

The Sharp End: Strikers 🗡️

In football, goals win games, and these two have been clinical, ruthless, and impossible to handle this month.

• ⚽ Scott Paton (Port Glasgow BC): Paton is the man for the big moments. If there’s a sniff of a chance, he’ll take it. A pure goalscorer whose instinct in the box is second to none.

• 🔥 Chris Smith (Netherton AFC): A player who plays with intensity and a burning desire to score. Smith’s movement and finishing have been scorching hot, netting some crucial goals for his side.

That’s the team! A big well done to all the selected players for their outstanding performances this month. They fully deserve their spots in Hugh Dunnit’s Team of the Month!
