West Calder United v Spartans Juniors

1.30pm  5 January 2013

SJFA East Region, South Division
West Calder United 1 Spartans Juniors 3 (att 33)

I chose this game from the two options I had that would allow me to also watch the curiosity of a Scottish Junior Cup match being played indoors at 4pm.

It wasn't a bad game, with Spartans Juniors, effectively the second team of the club who play in the East of Scotland League, surprisingly comfortable winners.

The visitors scored a penalty for the first half's only goal, and were in complete control when they added a second after the break. West Calder threatened to make a game of it when they netted a penalty of their own, but Spartans quickly re-established their two goal cushion.

The ground, Hermand Park, is relatively new, and a step up from the club's former home. It's fully enclosed, with a tea bar, covered standing area, and friendly club officials.
