The drive from Ormiston was near enough a backtrack from the morning match at Dalkeith, which was only about a mile away. The journey was trouble free and I was parked up by 16.26.

The match was 8th versus 2nd in the league table and when Glenrothes went ahead after just eight minutes, it looked like it was going to form, but it was still only 0-1 at the break. Ten minutes into the second half they doubled their lead and looked to be coasting to an easy three points, but two goals in four minutes saw the hosts level it up at 2-2 eight minutes later. It was a wake up call for Glenrothes and they edged back in front with twelve minutes left, before finally sealing a resounding 2-5 win with two more goals in stoppage time.

Above : It would have been nice if they had bothered to update the fixture board.
