Derby Day

It's an experience that you love to be a part of whether it's in the stands or on the field. The classic hate for that one team, no matter who they play. Years of making history, wins, losses and mixed emotions from the results of each time you meet on the pitch. East Fife was in town this past weekend, sitting just 4 points below us. The league is still very tight and anyone can win on any given day. This was the biggest number of fan support I've seen at any game this season, which made the game more interesting. More importantly this weekend was another chance for my club to move up the table. Our game was played at 12pm instead of the usual 3pm due to a race car event on afterwards. The game got off to a quick start with the scoreline being 2-1 in favour of Cowdenbeath after a back and forth affair of goals within the first 20 minutes. After half time I didn't feel my team was going to lose. Near the end the other keeper was forced into making a couple good saves that locked up the 3 points for us. Later on in the afternoon Brechin tied and Sterling lost which placed us in 2nd place and moved 3 points out of 1st. In a few weeks time we will get another crack at the top of the table leaders and hopefully we will continue down the road of success to be number 1.
