Although we were desperate to see a City win, at the end of the day I thought a draw was not a bad result. The game started with East Stirling sitting back and soaking up some pressure from City, although it has to be said that for all our pressure the ES goalkeeper really didn't have any saves to make. The longer the game went on, Elgin tried to push forward, but the more we pushed on, the more ES came into the game. We were caught with our defence square a couple of times and were lucky that a defender was able to get back in time. With two minutes to go Shally had the ball on the six yard line and looking to get in a shot. He got in an effort of sorts which somehow got past the goalkeeper, but the keeper turned round and grabbed the ball just as it was about to cross the line. Before the end ES managed a couple of efforts on our goal but our defence stood firm. Too many Elgin players had "average" games, but to be fair to East Stirling, their guys were well up for it, and certainly gave their free admission crowd something to shout about. I feel that we now need to win all three remaining games and the smokies lose two. Difficult to imagine but not beyond the realms of possibility. Get as many supporters as you can along to BB next week and encourage the team to keep the dream going for just a bit longer.
