Maryhill V

0 - 1
26th April 2010
0 - 1
26th April 2010
Maryhill's
chances of
avoiding playing
in Division Two
next
season received
a severe setback
after losing to
one of the other
main
relegation candidates.
It was a bright
enough start
with Maryhill
taking the
initiative.
After just
three minutes a
John Cunningham
header looked
goalbound, but
was scrambled
off the line.
The visitors
replied with a
Chris Jackson
header which
struck the post,
then Douglas
Adair came
close, but after
being set up
shot past the
post. Play was
fairly even
until the break,
with neither
side producing
any goal
attempts of
note.
Half Time -
Maryhill 0
Perthshire 0
The second half
was pretty much
a non event with
both teams
struggling, and
a goalless draw
looking to
be the most
likely outcome.
Chris Calder
made a vital
save from a
point blank
range headed
attempt from
Michael
MacAulay, but
could do nothing
to prevent Adair
heading the only
goal of the game
midway through
the half.
Maryhill seemed
to just accept
defeat, and
Shire goalkeeper
Bryan Thomson
had virtually
nothing to do.
Shire finished
the stronger
side, and Chris
Calder had to
produce another
quality stop to
prevent sub
Scott Ballantyne
from increasing
the visitors'
lead.
This was a dire
and quite
frankly,
depressing
display from
Maryhill. There
have been many
poor
performances
thoughout the
season, but this
surely has to
rank as the
worst. Unless
there is a huge
improvement in
the remaining
eight league
games,
relegation is
looking more and
more likely.
