GOING TO BLANTYRE?

Posted on September 8, 2021 by IG7

Talbot travel to Blantyre to take on a struggling Victoria side who now lay in 18th position in the league but will be desperate to stay out of the bottom seven drop zone. The Vics have only gathered a measly 9 points from 12 games albeit six of their points tally has come at home. Since their 3-1 defeat at Beechwood back in July 31st they have picked up two points out of seven games both 1-1 draws with fellow strugglers Glenafton and Kilbirnie. Before last weeks narrow 3-2 loss at Rutherglen the Vics paraded their new signing Paul Fee who is on loan till the end of the season from Albion Rovers.

Blantyre officials would be grateful if all supporters did not arrive at gates until 1.15. The social club will be open if anyone wants a drink. The KG Stadium has had a serious facelift and can now boast covered seating as well as covered standing area’s.

The referee for the game is Sean Murdoch and he will be assisted by linesmen Scott Love and David White.

SFA CHIEF IAN MAXWELL HIGHLIGHTS GROWING CONCERN FOR COVID CASE INCREASE

Posted on August 30, 2021 by IG7

Dear club

As you will no doubt be aware, the number of new cases of COVID-19 continues to rise.

Indeed, the First Minister has announced today that a record number of cases have been

recorded in the past 24 hours – more than 6800.

Given the significant role our football clubs play in communities across Scotland, and in

keeping with our collective effort to protect public health during the ongoing pandemic, we

have been asked by Scottish Government to help reinforce compliance with baseline

mitigation measures at this crucial juncture.

Whilst the Scottish Government anticipated a rise in cases with the gradual removal of

restrictions post-lockdown, none the less the scale of increase is of real concern.

The Joint Response Group is seeking your help in relaying messages and reinforcing actions

that will not only keep our people and our supporters safe but crucially mitigate the very

real possibility of restrictions being reintroduced that could have significant implications for

our clubs.

The Health Secretary has reaffirmed a message to Scottish football today “to encourage

people in your sector to get both doses when offered”. As you know, Professor Jason Leitch

will attend a Zoom call on Monday at 5pm for players and staff of clubs under the

professional exemption to reinforce the facts behind the vaccination programme.

In the letter, which you will find attached, the Health Secretary issues a stark warning that if

the surge continues or accelerates “then we cannot rule out having to re-impose some

restrictions”.

Scottish football has only been reunited with its fan base in recent weeks. The JRG asks for

your help in reminding your players and team staff of their responsibilities in complying with

the existing guidance, regulations and protocols but also in reminding fans ahead of this

weekend’s fixtures to do their bit to ensure they can continue to enjoy the national game in

person.

We would urge all clubs to use the power of their social media platforms to remind fans to

take the following measures before, during and after attending a match. We would also ask

that this message, where possible, is relayed via email or newsletters to supporters to

ensure the message is heard. We ask supporters to:-

1. Not attend a match if they have any symptoms.

2. Take a precautionary Lateral Flow Test before arrival at the stadium.

3. Ensure that mandatory regulations are followed when travelling to and from the

stadium (car, train, supporters’ buses etc) with particularly attention to the wearing

of face coverings.

4. Keep a safe distance when entering and exiting the stadium.

5. Wear a face covering when entering and exiting the stadium.

6.Ensure that mandatory regulations are followed when using hospitality facilities

within the stadium.

7.Where possible, keep a distance between you and other supporters when seated in

the stadium.

We thank you for your ongoing commitment to the guidance, regulations and protocols and

for your help in reinforcing the measures which we hope will be heeded and ensure that

wecan all continue to enjoy the national game with supporters in attendance.

COVID-19 MITIGATION MEASURES

You will be aware that new cases in Scotland have more than doubled during the last week.

This is one of the sharpest rises we have seen during the pandemic.

We always knew that cases were likely to rise as restrictions eased. However, the scale of

the increase is of real concern.

While the vaccination has significantly weakened the link between new cases and serious

health harms, and please do continue to encourage people in your sector to get both doses

when offered, it has not been completely broken.

Scotland’s health and care service is under considerable pressure and there is a risk that if

the surge continues or accelerates – increasing pressure on hospital beds and ICU

admissions – then we cannot rule out having to re-impose some restrictions.

We do not want to return to more stringent measures, but this is yet another fragile – and

potentially very pivotal – moment in our journey through the pandemic.

We are asking all sectors – as part of a collective wider effort – to step up their efforts to

reduce the spread of the virus.

This means taking all possible proactive steps to promote and reinforce the baseline

measures, the promotion of advisory precautionary measures and sector specific good

practice in your sector.
- There are four areas that are still required by law:
  
  1. it continues to be the law (unless for some specific exemptions), that face coverings
  
  must be worn in all the same indoor settings as they were before 9 August and face
  
  coverings continue to be required on public transport;
  
  2. as before, hospitality (restaurants, cafes, bars, pubs, hotels where food/drink
  
  consumed on the premises) and also now since the opening of the night-time sector,
  
  entertainment venues (nightclubs, dance halls, discos and sexual entertainment venues) are
  
  required to collect the contact details of customers so that Test & Protect can continue to
  
  contact-trace positive cases;
  
  3. as before, businesses, services providers and places of worship must have regard to
  
  SG guidance about measures to minimise risk of exposure to coronavirus relating to their
  
  business, service or premises; and
  
  4. organisers of outdoor events of more than 5,000 people outdoors and 2,000 people
  
  indoors will still require local authority permission before they can go ahead, as this will allow
  
  us and local authorities simply to be assured of the arrangements in place to reduce the risk
  
  of large scale gatherings.
  
  For football this means the strict reinforcement of the need for face coverings at all times
  
  within indoor elements of stadia and strict adherence to the guidelines around hospitality
  
  within the stadium setting. All spectators/fans should also be encouraged to undertake lateral
  
  flow home tests before attending games, which are available for free.
  
  I would be grateful for your confirmation that this has been conveyed to all clubs, and that in
  
  turn clubs will reinforce messaging is issued to all spectators as soon as possible.
  
  Kind regards

Unfortunately Don couldn’t attend due to other engagements but Billy was there to receive a small momento from club secretary Henry Dumigan.

SCOTTISH CUP THROWS UP LOCAL DERBY

Posted on August 29, 2021 by IG7

With only a handfull of WOSL clubs taking part in the Scottish Cup first round draw it was a cruel blow when Talbot were paired up with Irvine Meadow after Sunday’s draw. Meadow currently sit seventh in the premier league and after a shakey start to their campaign where they lost two out of their opening three games the North Ayrshire side have hit a purple patch which includes inspired draws against Darvel and Clydebank.

With two Talbot legends as co-managers Colin Spence and James Latta, the Meadow squad also has a number of players who plyed their trade at Beechwood. Along with Dylan Pooler and Kyle Faulds the Medda also have Jamie Whyte and Martin Findlay son of Ross Findlay.

Meadow progressed to round one after a 2-1 home victory over EOSL premier side Musselburgh who are sitting mid-table at the moment. The match itself should attract a lot of interest in the region, and with Talbot as the visitors it should also see a decent crowd. The tie has been set for the 18th September with a 3pm kick-off.

The full draw is:

Nairn County v Strathspey Thistle
Wigtown & Bladnoch v St Cuthbert Wanderers
Fraserburgh v Sauchie
Banks o’Dee v Turriff United
Newtongrange Star v Dalbeattie Star
Cumbernauld Colts v Buckie Thistle

CUMBERNAULD UNITED A REAL TEST

Posted on August 26, 2021August 26, 2021 by IG7

Talbot face Cumbernauld this Saturday in a game we desperately need to win to keep our top spot in the league title race and this will see us come up against two ex-Talbot players Danny Boyle and Klark Thomson. Boyle will be remembered for his transfer request from Beechwood, While Thomson was a raw youngster when he joined the Bot.

The “Nauld” have been impressive so far this season except for two poor results where they went down 4-0 to Largs and were spanked 5-1 by an indifferent Pollok side. However they have enjoyed some decent wins over Cumnock, Hurlford and Troon as well as a share of the points at Clydebank.

Under the leadership of rookie manager Tony Fraser and his assistant Chris Zok the Guys Meadow side have enough about them to beat the dreaded drop, and showed this last week when dumping Kilbirnie out the Scottish Cup.

The match will be officiated by referee John McKendrick and his assistants David Miller and Gavin Cousar. Beechwood will have its new safety nets behind each goal in operation, but hopefully the only nets called into action are the one’s behind the Cumbernauld keeper.
