Striker
STR – Willie Stalker – Rutherglen Glencairn AFC Another hatty from the big man hes on fire and hitting form at the right time for us
STR – Daniel Moran – Glasgow Island
highly accomplished performance and a great strike for the second goal. Daniel was a constant thorn in the side of the Nethercraigs defence.

Despite not getting on the scoresheet. Kyle’s performance was top drawer his willingness to work for his teammates was great to see. Kyle showed what a good player he is by bringing others into the game and on another day he gets his goal but it was an excellent performance.
STR – Dylan Henry – Rutherglen Glencairn AFC Dylan seems back to his best another hatty from him and was excellent all day.
