Saturday’s GCFA fixtures are done — and the nominations tell the story again.

Goalkeeper

GK – Ross Gallacher – Clydebank Red Star
Ross made a string of good saves. Ensured that we got a positive result out of the match.
GK – Owen Coyle – Port Glasgow Boys Club
Owen produced another clean sheet against Glasgow Ansar. The shot stopping goalkeeper earned his shut out with a couple of great saves.

Defenders
DEF – Jacob Kennedy – Corinthians
Jacob was instrumental in today’s win. He was up and down the wing the whole game. A lovely interaction with Eddie Ferns, saw him one on one with the keeper and he slotted it home. 

DEF – Haadi Bajwa – Third Lanark AFC
Another 70 mins in the tank since coming back from injury. First goal of the season too.

DEF – Kieran Fox – Cathcart AFC 
Kieran delivered an outstanding performance at right back, showing real quality and determination throughout the match. He was dominant in his individual battles, consistently winning duels and shutting down opposition attacks with strong tackling and smart positioning. His composure on the ball and willingness to push forward also added to his overall impact, making him a key player on both ends of the pitch.

DEF – Sean Donnelly – Greater Croftpark Rose Sean was up and down the left hand side all game long. the full back scored a header at the back post to put his side ahead.

DEF – Andrew Stokes – Westhill United
like Kyle at the other end, struggling for things to say! Stokesy just went from strength to strength and has become a real leader in this group.

DEF – Jordan Grant – Park Sports Project
Jordan had a great game and controlled the back line very well alongside his defensive partner Callum.

Midfielders
MID – Ronnie MacDonald – Nethercraigs
 Ronnie had an outstanding game at the back marshalling the defence and like a lot of Nethercraigs players didn’t deserve to be on the losing side

MID – Ross Martin – Westhill United
A brilliant week for the wee man, got a hattrick and showed the quality we see in training every week! 

MID – Connor Docherty – Busby AFC
Only played 45 minutes before picking up a knock but first 45 was outstanding

MID – Matthew Glen – Cathcart AFC
Matthew put in a strong and disciplined performance in centre midfield, doing the vital dirty work that kept his team ticking. He showed great determination in winning his individual battles, breaking up opposition play and regaining possession consistently. His work rate and physical presence in the middle of the park were key, allowing his teammates more freedom while he handled the tough side of the game effectively.

MID – Brett Curran – Knightswood AFC
Good to have the big man back, quality for the 90 mins and a big factor in the teams win.

MID – Connor mcguiness – Rutherglen Glencairn AFC
Wee man was outstanding in the middle of the park lots of  energy plus bags of quality to go with it. Motm performance.

MID – Alan Vezza – Corinthians
 After a hard shift last week against Chyston.  Alan was back in the trenches and commanding the midfield. He was unlucky not to score with a strong header but the keeper got his hands on it.

MID – Tony Conroy – Rosebank United
Tony played up front 1st half and on the end of a great team move  for our 1st goal. Set up the second before slotting back into midfield for the 2nd half.
MID – Conor Scullion – Rutherglen Glencairn AFC
Conor was excellent out wide and was instrumental in all our good attacking play more to come from him.
MID – Mark Smith – Greater Croftpark Rose 
Mark covered every blade of grass on the Toryglen pitch and scored an absolutely sensational towering header.

Strikers

STR – Dylan Henry – Rutherglen Glencairn AFC Just the two goals for Dylan against Clydebank SMFC. The ruthless attacker was excellent in the no 10 role 

STR – Cameron MacDougall – Knightswood AFC Cameron scored five’s goal and ran them ragged all game long.

STR – Fraser Moreton – Busby AFC
Fraser was at it from the first whistle. Keep his tempo up for the full 90 minutes especially tuff on a heavy grass pitch.

STR – Liam Kelly – Port Glasgow Boys Club –
Liam scored six goals and was dubiously done out of a seventh, The striker certainly had his shooting boots on today.

STR  – Jamie Curran – Port Glasgow Boys Club
Two goals and a great performance from Jamie.

STR – Kyle MacDonald – Westhill United Frightening and clinical! Won big flick ons at key times and took his chances. His 3rd goal probably goal of the day!! 

STR – Cammy Hendry – Greater Croftpark Rose
Cammy was excellent on the day, he set up McMillan with a quality cross and generally caused the opposition defenders a lot of problems.

STR – Smart – Park Sports Project
Smart had another fine game for the club after just recently joining a few weeks back, The attacker made a good contribution by  providing two assists.
