Fantastic Day for Youth Sides

City's U-16s won the Scottish Cup today beating Leith Athletic by two goals to one at Airdrie's Excelsior Stadium. Following on from last year's success at U-13 level, today's victory for Ross McNeil's side further strengthens City's reputation within Youth football. 

Meanwhile John Green's all conquering U-19 side won their second cup of the season - the Challenge Cup - with an emphatic 9-1 victory over Easthouses. With the league all but won it has been a remarkable season. The team have won every East of Scotland match they have contested and are scoring goals for fun - 24 in the last two games alone! 

Six players from the U-19 squad have already signed for the next year's senior team and although their integration into the first team might take a season or so the future is very promising especially when you consider the age groups beneath have plenty of talented players too.

Juan Goal Enough to see off Tynecastle

City are through to the semi final of the King Cup thanks to a header from the big Spanish striker, Juan Carlos Amoros. The header ten minutes from time was greeted with loud cheers from the sidelines as the popular striker bagged his first goal in a City shirt.

U19s beat the Wee Gers 

City U19s beat their Berwick Rangers counterparts 6-1 today at Meadowbank. The youngsters maintained the rich vein of form that has seen them win all their games in the East of Scotland this season. Goal scorers today were Ian McFarland (2), Robbie Dunn, Ross Guthrie, Danny Denholm and Ryan Wilson. 

A friendly against the renowned Wallsend Boys Club from the north east of England has been arranged for Tuesday evening at Meggetland.

Watt Win Welcome 

City managed to break the poor run of results with a victory at home to Heriot Watt University. Makeshift striker Stephen Mullen put City ahead with a well struck shot from 12 yards out. But as has happened in many games of late City were unable to defend the lead until half time. Norwegian striker Lars Berger with his back to goal was given space to turn before firing home from 10 yards. City had the better of the second half and they got their just reward when Jordan Caddow clipped the ball around the Watt keeper midway through the second half.

Dismal Run Continues

Selkirk ran out winners this evening at Meadowbank as City suffered yet another defeat. Again City missed half a dozen gilt-edged chances before and after conceding the game's only goal midway through the first half.

Youth Team News

City's U19s opened their league campaign with a victory at Fernieside against Tynecastle. Coming off the back of an 8-1 defeat recently Tynecastle made City work a lot harder with the visitors eventually running out 3-0 winners. 

At U16 level Ross McNeil's side have made it through to the last four of the Scottish Cup after defeating Dundee United 4-0 at Sighthill. This is a fantastic achievement and we wish the lads all the best in the semi final against Clark Drive Boys Club.

Peebles Game OFF

It's all Academic as City are Defeated Again

Edinburgh University defeated City at Meadowbank last night. City had started the brighter and created a number of chances before Peter Stenhouse blasted home from eight yards out. The home side continued to dominate, Steven Clee saw a powerful shot well saved while Jordan Hall hit the crossbar with a long range effort. City's failure to bury their chances again came back to haunt them and almost unbelievably they found themselves trailing at half time by two goals to one. You could visibly see the confidence drain from the home side and their second half efforts were not a patch on the first although did not deserve to lose a further two goals. The game was was ideal preparation for a Uni side who are back at the stadium this Sunday for the SFA Challenge Cup final. Meanwhile City head to Peebles on Saturday hoping to get back to winning ways.

City Pay Penalty for Speed Lapses

City were today beaten by Civil Service Strollers at Meadowbank. The League Cup tie had started brightly enough for City and they took the lead when Jordan Hall headed home a Dougie Gair corner. However an inexplicable push by Jamie Speed in the penalty area changed the game. Paul Lynch scored from the spot and it wasn't long before he was repeating the feat after Speed again was the sinner blocking a cross with his hand. Although City had the bulk of possession throughout the second half they failed to create many clear cut chances. Strollers will now face Lothian Thistle in the next round.

City Fail to Convert Chances at Riccarton

It was again a case of chances missed as City failed to capitalise against Heriot Watt last night at Riccarton. The first half was fairly uneventful bar the torrential rain. The second burst into life from the outset and City created a number of chances. Eventually Jordan Caddow finished off a fine move poking the ball home from ten yards. However the University side equalised when City failed to clear a corner and then allowed Patterson cut inside onto his right foot. The winger curled the ball over the head of Duncan Monteith from 20 yards out. Despite continuing to dominate it City could not find the net to get the victory their second half performance deserved.

U19s Thump Tynecastle in League Cup

City U19s convincingly beat Tynecastle 8-1 at Fernieside yesterday. In inflicting Tynecastle's first home defeat of the season the young Citizens maintained their own 100% record.

Five Star Show from Citizens

City broke a winless run in the league with a convincing victory at Yarrow Park, Selkirk. Quickly into their stride City had missed a few opportunities before Jordan Hall scored following a mixed up in the Selkirk defence. Hall had the opportunity to increase the lead from the penalty spot, but his spot kick was easily saved. Within a minute the home side who had threaten little up to that point were level. City continued to push forward and were soon in front again when centre half Michael Bruce headed his fifth goal of the season from a Kevin Morrison corner. Dougie Gair scored from a free kick to make it 3-1 at half time. City continued to dominate in the second half a Jordan Caddow brace seemed scant reward for their efforts.

Fairydean Late Show

The King Cup round three beckons for City after overcoming First Division high flyers Gala Fairydean at Netherdale yesterday.  Despite falling behind in the first half to a Sutherland goal City equalised almost immediately through Alan Flanagan. Jordan Hall netted a very late winner with his tenth goal of the season to send the Citizens through to the next round.

Whitehill Woe

City lost by a solitary goal last night to Whitehill Welfare. Kidd scored for Welfare early in the game while Haynes spurned a golden opportunity to make it two-nil. Thereafter City dominated missing countless goal scoring chances. Our own profligacy in front of goal combined with a series of stunning saves from the visiting keeper made for a frustrating evening for the City faithful.

Preston Take Points With Late Double

Despite leading two nil at half time (Flanagan & Clee) City managed to lose to Preston yesterday afternoon. Preston have proved to be a bogey team for City in recent seasons often scoring late goals to sneak points and Saturday's game was no exception. Two injury time goals secured the points for a Preston side that had been out of sorts in the first half.

Lothian Stalemate

City created a number of very good chances in the first half and could have been out of sight at half time. Steven Clee had a number of chances, while Dougie Gair and Michael Bruce also spurned great opportunities in a half that City dominated. The second half was more evenly contested and despite both sides creating goalscoring opportunities neither could find the back of the net.

U19s Hit Thistle for Twelve

City's U-19s continued their rich vein of form at a heavy Saughton Enclosure this afternoon. The youngsters led Lothian two-nil at half-time, however the floodgates opened in the second half with City rattling in another ten goals. Three players scored hat-tricks - Peter Stenhouse, Ross Guthrie and Ryan Wilson. A Robbie Dunn penalty and two goals from Danny Denholm took the final tally to twelve.

Tomorrow's match is in doubt with chances described as 'no more than 40:60'. There will be a further pitch inspection at 8.30am on match day. Please do not travel without checking either the website or with a club official. Such is the current fixture backlog there is a chance that should the game be postponed then another game could be hastily arranged - in that event details will be posted here as soon as they are known.

Nineteens Emerge from Hibernation to Record Win at Spartans.

After two months without a game the City 19s continued where they had left off in November with another victory, this time it was Spartans who were put to the sword at Ainslie Park. Leading 2-1 at half time courtesy of goals from Shaun Harrison and Danny Denholm. City went on to score a further four goals on the excellent artificial surface. Peter Stenhouse, Ross Guthrie, Ian McFarland and Robbie Dunn were City's scorers in the second half as they ran out 6-3 derby winners.

Late Winner Leaves City Seeing Stars

Dalbeattie Star continued their good run of form with a win over City at Meadowbank Stadium. City twice fought back from a goal down equalising for the second time in the 92nd minute. Star managed to find a winner less than a minute later when a Kenny Ross clearance was blocked by Gary Redpath twenty yards out and spun over the Duncan Monteith in the City goal. It was heartbreaking stuff for City who had barely stopped celebrating Jordan Hall's goal.

Star had taken the lead on 30 minutes when Jack Steel shot home at the back post following a corner from the right. City's best chances in the first half had fallen to Michael Bruce, a couple of headers and shot from 25 yards that was well held. Twenty minutes into the second half the young centre half found the net with a header from a Dougie Gair freekick. Dalbeattie took the lead when Lewis Sloan slotted home a penalty awarded for a mistimed Kenny Ross tackle.

City kept on pressing a when a well struck shot from Jordan Caddow was parried out as far as Jordan Hall the freescoring midfielder made no mistake from 12 yards. Redpath's fortuitous winner was a real kick in the teeth for a City side that deserved at least a point from the game.

City don't have to wait long to try to gain revenge for their first league defeat of the season as some rather quirky fixturing sees the Citizens traveling down to Dalbeattie this weekend.

Easthouses Lily No Match for Depleted City

City were missing three players through suspension on top of losing the services of leading goalscorer  Robbie Ross in the week it was an unfamiliar line-up that took the field against Easthouses. 

City started the game brightly into the very strong wind taking the lead on nine minutes when Jordan Caddow managed to nick in front of  Lily's keeper heading the ball home from six yards. Easthouses pressed forward aided by the gale at their backs although City remained dangerous on break and probably had the better opportunities. However on 39 minutes Lily's  Baigrie latched on to a poor clearance sending a looping shot over Duncan Monteith into the net from 25 yards.

With the wind behind them in the second half City dominated for long spells failing to convert a number of clear cut chances before a forceful run and cross down the left on 75 minutes by Dougie Gair was rewarded when a Lily defender attempting to clear bundled the ball over the line. City sealed victory when Ross Macnamara scored his first goal of the season following a Ross Guthrie corner on 85 minutes.

  Robbie Ross Signs for Arbroath

Robbie Ross has left City to join SFL Division Two side Arbroath. Last season's top scorer had been subject of much speculation after an approach from Linlithgow Rose in the summer was rebuffed. Robbie has continued to bang in the goals this season and it was no surprise when Arbroath came calling, giving him a crack at Scottish League Football. 

Robbie goes with the club's best wishes and I am sure the Arbroath scores and scorers will be scrutinised that bit more closely in the City Club after games.

  City Lose Out to Whitehill in Image Printers Final

City have contrived to lose a number of finals in the last few years and today they shot themselves in the foot as the brothers Hall both saw red in the second half.  

City took the lead in the second minute when Steven Clee followed in to tap home after his initial penalty attempt had been saved. Whitehill scored a deserved equaliser on 27 minutes when Haynes fired home at the back post.  City had a penalty claim denied when Jordan Hall seemed to be flattened by the Welfare keeper. The game was to hinge on penalty decisions and Whitehill were the beneficiaries on 50 minutes when following a Michael Bruce challenge the referee pointed to the spot. Within a minute of the resulting penalty hitting the back of the net City were down to nine men and seemingly down and out. 

They say that it can be difficult to play against ten men, but Whitehill were finding City's nine hot to handle. Dougie Gair in particular was having a great game and when he was brought down in the box all eyes turned to the referee who immediately booked him for diving much to the disbelief of the majority of the crowd.  The referee then consulted the far side linesman who had flagged for the penalty, but his decision stood and with it went any chance City might have had. Whitehill took advantage of a short Kenny Ross back pass to take a 3-1 lead. Dougie Gair scored a great solo goal his play deserved in injury time. 

Although it was heroic stuff from the nine men, City were left to rue individual indiscipline and that penalty decision! Congratulations go to Whitehill on lifting the first silverware of the season.

Whitehill Fixture Announced

City have an extra fixture before Christmas. Whitehill Welfare will be the visitors for a Premier Division game on Wednesday 10th December. The match originally scheduled for early October is a welcome addition for both clubs as they are behind in terms of games played in the league.   

Even with this addition to the schedule City will play a maximum of five league matches before Christmas. We have lost four games to postponements which is probably about the average in a season that has seen a record number of cancellations. Our success in cup competitions allied to the games lost to the weather is causing a fixture backlog. It looks like being a busy second half to the season!

  Injury Doubts Ahead of the Brechin Game

A number of City regulars are struggling for fitness with the Cup game against Brechin City, but two days away. Strikers Steven Clee (foot) and Robbie Ross (back) should make the game. However both John Hall and Kevin Morrison who picked up injuries against Gretna 2008 last weekend are serious doubts. Manager Shaun Stevens will likely dip into the U19 squad should any of the first team lose their battle for fitness.

  Robbie Gets his Hands on the Scottish Cup

Robbie Ross managed to do what most footballers  can only dream of when he lifted the Homecoming Scottish Cup. Unfortunately for him (& City) his dalliance with the trophy didn't come on cup final day at Hampden, but a rather more humdrum Wednesday in Princes Street. Robbie was helping to promote the competition ahead of this weekend's third round.

Looking forward to our game on Saturday, he said, "The Scottish Cup is the biggest competition we play in so to face a league side is a great opportunity for us to show we can perform at that level. A lot of people take more interest when it is the Cup, a lot more fans certainly claim they are going to come along. 

“But a lot don’t appreciate how good a team Brechin are, they think we have a good chance of beating them. They don’t realise this is going to be one of the toughest games we have played."

  Citizens Book Image Printers Cup Final Place

Robbie Ross scored a very late winner today as City saw off a resilient Gretna 2008 team. City had been two goals to the good early in the second half courtesy of an own goal and a Dougie Gair strike. The hosts pulled a goal back 25 minutes from time. Gretna then had a man sent off in the 75th minute. Ignoring the numerical imbalance the home side scored an equaliser two minutes from time. The visitors replied immediately when Robbie scored his 15th goal of the season ensuring City's passage to the final.

The final against Whitehill Welfare is scheduled for Sunday 21st December (Venue: TBC).

  City Blown Away in Challenge Cup

After last seasons run to the final City lost out at the quarter final stage of the  2008/09 SFA Challenge Cup against Edinburgh University. At a very windy Peffermill the students made good use of the elements to put the City goal under threat in the first half. They took the lead inside five minutes when a shot from outside the area looped off a City defender's head and the backpedaling Duncan Monteith was unable to turn the ball over the bar. Striker Peder Beck-Friis has been a thorn in City's side in the past and today was no exception. The Swedish forward scored the second goal on 20 minutes when a long freekick wasn't cleared by the defence and he slotted home from 10 yards. 

City had been playing reasonably well against a very gusty wind, but only had one Jordan Hall attempt to show for their efforts which was palmed away for a corner. On 33 minutes there was a sense of deja vu about the Uni's third goal as yet again a long freekick deceived the Citizens and ex-City youth McFarlane shot home from inside the area. Uni full back Fusco was sent off on 40 minutes after he struck out at Dougie Gair. 

Despite a lot of pressure and chances in the opening 20 minutes of the second half City failed to convert. Gair's wind assisted freekick from 30 yards sailed into the top corner on 74 minutes but City could not add to their tally and the Uni saw the game out without too much trouble.

  City Youngsters Maintain Perfect Record

City U19s picked themselves up from the disappointing performance against Dumbarton on Sunday and overwhelmed Lothian Thistle 8-0 in tonight's League Cup match at Meadowbank Stadium. The young Citizens were four goals up at half time thanks to strikes from Ross Guthrie (2),  Peter Stenhouse and Blair Stevenson, his first of the season. It was much the same in the second half with Guthrie adding a further two goals to take his season's tally to 12. Stevenson and Ian McFarland completed the scoring as City retained their 100% record in the League Cup. 

You could do worse than popping down to an U19s game - they have now scored 45 goals in eight league cup matches!

  U19s fail to Rock Dumbarton in Youth Cup

Dumbarton progressed to the last sixteen of the SFA Youth Cup this afternoon at the expense of City's U19s. On a cold day John Green's team took time to get into the game and were two goals down inside 30 minutes. Robbie Dunn scored from the penalty spot just before half time after he had been fouled in the area to bring City back into the game. 

A change of formation at half time saw Peter Stenhouse revert to his familiar striking role and he came close to equalising early in the second half his shot from 12 yards rebounding off the crossbar. Dumbarton regained their two goal advantage in the 65th minute and although City battled on they were finding it difficult to create chances against a resolute Dumbarton side. Danny Denholm had the ball in the net in the 80th minute but his headed effort was ruled out for an apparent push. Ian McFarland scored a spectacular scissor kick goal from a corner late on but it proved scant consolation as it ended 3-2 to the young Sons.
