Weekend Sport – Sat 29th Sept. Narrow win for 1st XV

/in , /by

Stewart’s Melville RFC   24   Preston Lodge  22

Seemingly winning comfortably by 24 – 12 with just 15 minutes to go our favourites contrived to lose a couple of scores in the next five minutes to leave home spectators biting their nails and encouraging the referee to end the game.    Eventually he did so giving the 1sts a fourth win in five league wins and holding on  to third place in the league with 19 points behind top team Biggar on 24 points (our one defeat) and Highland (21 points).
