The First 3.

A new team, a new league, a new country, but most importantly a new opportunity to grow as a goalkeeper and person. Many things have happened on my journey to get this far, they will only make me stronger to carry me further as this is only the begining. Today Clyde FC was our challenge at Central Park, they have been off to a slow start this season finding themselves near the bottom of the table as well. My teammates and staff have been keeping very positive over the past couple of weeks knowing that the first 3 points were just around the corner. The weather was unreal for Scottish tradition, looked like a perfect summers day in Canada. We ended up going up 1-0 before the halftime. The team knew that the 3 points were ours for the taking depending on how we performed in the second half. The game was a little scrappy from time to time, but that's how the game goes sometimes. I was glad to see the team play through the full 90 minutes to clinch the first win of the season, definately lifts a heavy load from our backs and gives the fans what they deserve. Although I didn't play any minutes today this week has been another important one for me. I've been settling in with my new club this week a little more and starting to talk a bit more with some of the guys. They're all very easy to get along with and some tend to be quite the character from time to time. We tend to be quite the young side but I feel there is a tight bond, which will help the squad as the season progresses. Although my bum was sore from sitting on the bench today, I felt a part of the team in its first victory of the season. Next weekend we take a road trip to Dumbarton and another chance to travel up the table!

Final: Cowdenbeath FC 1-0 Clyde FC
