Talbot travel to Synergy Park on Saturday hoping to keep up their unbeaten league run intact after Wednesday’s nail biting encounter against Largs This will be our first run out of the season on the astro turf where the Bot have an unique record of never losing a league match on a plastic surface and hope to emulate this record against the side laying second bottom of the league.

Having won only one game out of five which was a shock 3-1 win over Pollok, the former South of Scotland side will prove dangerous opponents on their home patch. However their last outing at Synergy was a 6-0 thrashing by high flying Kilwinning Rangers.

Kilwinning fans were asked to populate the side behind the dugouts and no doubt with our support it will be likely we will be asked to do the same. With the weather forcast to be rain on Saturday it would be advisable to bring a brolly as Synergy Park has no cover.

Car parking is limited with the car park reserved for players and officials only. Townhead Bowling Club and Eva’s Café situated in the Evolution Fitness across the road for tea, coffee and food.

No doubt we will be out in numbers again so let’s roar the boys onto another victory.

The held over draw which includes a top of the range Mercedes SUV for the weekend will take place on the 21st August at the Montrose Roselea match. The draw which has been held over due to the Covid epidemic raised a substantial amount for the floodlight project.

That Alex Gemmell winning all the prizes there Geordie? surely he put them back in for a redraw

Talbot legend Keir Milliken will be taking the field this Wednesday but not for the Talbot. Keir is now on the payroll of Largs Thistle after joining them in 2020 from Beith, and will no doubt be looking forward to his return to Beechwood where he had many an eventful season. Keir is still to score for his new club, so lets hope the trend continues.

Stewart Davidson brings the “Theeesal” to Auchinleck on the back of a 2-1 defeat by Cumnock on Saturday and will be desperate for the three points after getting his team out of the relegation places with wins over Rossvale and Cumbernauld.

Talbot have a full squad to pick from which includes the return of Gordon Pope and Dwayne Hyslop. No doubt Tucker will continue with his rotation system as we embark on a glut of league matches. Word has it the new lights might get an airing.

Four of last season’s squad have now left the club as they move on to pastures new. Hamish McKinlay was first to start the exodus after joining Premier rivals Clydebank followed by Corey Pearson who has recently signed for Kilbirnie. Defender Dillon Young has also left but at the moment its unsure who he has signed for.

It now can be confirmed that Stephen Wilson has left to join his old side Troon FC. Everybody at Beechwood would like thank all the players for their services to the club, and wish them luck with their new clubs.

MICK McGINN

Mick has now sadly retired from the role of Physio after many years of outstanding service, the Club wishes to thank him and very much appreciates all he has achieved in his time at Beechwood Park. Mick will however still be around the ground as a fan on match days.

Some of us older fans will remember Mick playing for the Talbot, he was part of the Talbot resurgence which saw the club climb fron obscurity into the force they are now.

Taking up the role of Club Physio will be Jamie Monaghan, another long time servant and life long fan, we are sure you will join us in wishing Jamie every success in his new role.
