Handy Andy's Lethal Touch

At Pittodrie last Saturday Andy Watson was our two goal hero, Andy took his goals well with Ian Scanlon providing the service. It was good to see "Scan" back at his best and if he keeps this form he should be challenging for a place in the first team.
John Gardiner was another player to impress and his penalty save was the tonic the team needed to pick themselves up after half-time. Dom Sullivan captain for the day was a great help to the young lads, with his play and encouragement.
