Weekend preview

Only 5 teams on show this week

M1 v Menzieshill @ Dundee 2pm
Game of the day

The 1s are rested after a free weekend and are raring to go!

It'll be a tough fixture and there are still sore feelings about the playoffs last season so it'll be a fiesty encounter with both teams looking to gain an early season advantage.

M2 v Stepps @Fettes 11am

Words are not enough to describe the performance against Rottenrow last week. The 2s face Stepps where they will be hoping to continue the chain reaction and score 5,6,7,8 ? Stepps may not make it easy on me though, with a last minute touch securing 3 pts the last time the sides met. A physical encounter is expected which will be a good challenge for the young 2s side.

M6 v Watsons 3s @ Fettes 1230

6s have had a good start to the season and with the undefeated maroons from the south side visiting they will be looking to build on their 5-0 victory against Inverleith. We might even have another live facebook video of the game to look forward to.

M7 away to Eskvale

7s have their first away tie of the year, I don't know where Eskvale is but captain Damien Behan assures me that his TomTom is in fine working order.

M8 v Livingston @ Edinburgh Academy 4:30pm

The 8s won 5-2 against Inverleith on Saturday but with 'hattrick hero' Jamie Halcro-Johnston in Ibiza this weekend they will need to find goals from somewhere else!

Good luck to all stags.
