.....................................

A change of scenery tomorrow as Swifts travel to meet West of Scotland League opposition tomorrow, before we are back to League business with three home games in a week from next Saturday.

We take our unbeaten League form into this tie , having disappointingly exited two Cups already, and expect a tough match with last seasons' West of Scotland Division 3 champions.

Our hosts are based in Dalmellington - Craigmark and Burnton both being areas very nearby , with Craigmark having ironstone and coal mining histories in the past. The team date back to the early part of the 20th century, and boast a highest crowd of 2594 against Kilwinning bask in 1946. Some well known names from Scottish football have featured for the club - Alex McAnespie, Ian Fleming, Sam Goodwin, Stewart Kean and , more recently Liam Caddis who many Jeanie fans will recall from his 33 games in St Johnstone blue.

They come into this game after a very long trip of their own - all the way to Peterculter , just south of Aberdeen , to play Culter in the Scottish Communities Cup , sadly losing the game.

League-wise, Craigmark sit in 10th place in the table , 2 wins, 2 draws , 2 defeats , plenty of goals - 4 away at Ardeer, 6 away at Easterhouse, but a fair few conceded too, overall 15 for, 14 against.

Swifts will need to treat tomorrows game with full focus as ever, to come back up the road with a Cup victory - and a happy busload of players, officials and supporters!

MATCH REPORT

Blackburn United FC 2 Swifts 2

Another road trip, another draw today , in another "game of two halves" . Those spectators at the pavilion end of the ground got their money's worth as large passages of play took place in front of them.

Swifts lined up with Gary Fergus and Fergus Coutts replacing the unavailable Liam Strong and Matthew Cullerton, with Kiffy Scott moving to left back . They were on it from the first whistle , the Referee today officiating solo , with no Assistants - a rare sight at this level. Three corners in 7 minutes, a Gaz Fergus header saved , a Payne header millimetres wide - then an attack down the left , a good ball accross and Lewis Payne was on hand to crack his shot home from 15 yards for a deserved lead, 11 minutes played.

Swifts continued to dominate, with home keeper Komocki having a great game, 3 fine saves in as many minutes denied a second goal. Blackburn had some attacking play soon after , the Swifts defence having to work hard to clear one particular spell of pressure.
However it was Swifts who got the long-overdue goal on 43 minutes - a ball cleared from a crowded box was returned by a thumping JJ Henderson effort . The keepers acrobatics seemed for a second to have denied the goal, but the ball clearly crossed the line - 2-0 at half time, but not before a Swifts appeal for the keeper appearing to handle outside the box with Coutts in close attendance , the Ref explaining that any ricochet onto a hand was unavoidable.

The second half began with the homesters seeing more of the ball , shooting just over then bringing Ben Swinton into action as the territorial battle swung very much their way .
A Ryan McManus attempt from a very acute angle was a welcome sight as Swifts managed a short break out, before another home header skimmed the bar.

Liam Kelly took over from Gaz Fergus , but the home pressure intensified , finally paying off on 73 minutes when Mortimers' effort beat the keeper after another set piece - crossing the line without hitting the back of the net , but no complaints and it was game on at 2-1.

It was practically all Blackburn now, Swinton saving a header , before a ball in was cleared only as far as home sub Robertson who crashed a beauty home , a deserved equaliser on 83 minutes.

Still time though , for an intense final 3 minutes as Swifts chased the winner. The flashpoint arrived as Kiffy was heading towards the goal at pace before being wiped out by a tackle that looked to be from behind as he was away from the defender- no card . The resultant free kick hit the bar , and in the last moments of the match , Liam Payne shot past the keeper only for the post to deny him the winner.

So 6 games unbeaten , 3 wins and 3 draws in a topsy turvy League so far - only Camelon with a 100% record and Swifts the only other unbeaten side.

A break from the League next week , as we travel to play Craigmark Burntonians F.C. in the Challenge Cup , before home sweet home at last for three vital games in a week mid-month.
