Skye and Lochalsh League
Portree 5 Kyle 1 (att 18)
I need few excuses to head to the beautiful north west of Scotland, and the temporary relocation of Portree's two football clubs to a new all-weather surface at Portree High School was enough to tempt me to the Isle of Skye for the weekend.
Being a caged 3G pitch the ground does lack the charm of some of the other venues in this part of the world, but the surrounding countryside if delightful and the weather was amazing. I've never before had to apply sun block before watching a game in the Skye and Lochalsh League.
Portree are one of the league's better sides, but they were made to work for this win, with the final scoreline somewhat harsh on Kyle, who were let down by poor defending.
Portree took an early lead, but Kyle soon equalised. The game was effectively decided by two goals in quick succession shortly before half time, giving the home side a commanding lead. Two further goals in the second half ensured a comfortable winning margin.
