2001’s match postponed 2003’s match postponed 2005’s match postponed
2006’s Both Boswell and Tigers were away from home against Dalrymple. The games were played on a heavy grass pitch which our boys have not played on for a while. The excellent football the boys have been playing throughout our winter program was evident and at times some of our one touch passing was really good to watch. We are still a bit shot shy and more goals would just have finished off what was excellent football all round. Low scoring games which in part is due to the good work of our goalkeepers Lawrie Smith and Thomas Robertson. Only goal for us scored by Mason McNeillie. Lots of progression lately and the boys are now starting to play like a team. We are all looking forward to the season ahead.
2007’s match postponed
2008’s The boys played their first game of the new season at 7 a side football against Caledonian Thistle. Plenty of good work from the boys and lots to take from the game. It was difficult for them at times due to the level of aggression taken by the opposition at times. But they’ll learn to deal with that. On to next week in our first home game.
2009’s First day of the new season at Prestwick for our 2009s boys with two five a side teams playing , mixed results for both teams but overall a good morning of football with plenty of positives to take into the new season , size of pitches seemed to catch us off guard with stamina fading into the last game where both teams seemed out of steam ,a lot of pleasing play with the boys finding space through quick movement , some incisive passing and nice finishing which gives us a nice platform to build on for the coming weeks
