Falcons Win
Bragging rights

The Clyde Valley
Falcons took to the road for the second weekend in a row .Last weekend
they went South to Birmingham to play in and win the British title at
5 man football.
This week it was North
to Inverness to take on the Wildcats at 9 man football .
True to form the
weather started nice but by the end of the game both team were getting
just a little bit wet .
This is the 2nd time
this year that the Falcons and the Wildcats have clashed .The last visit
saw the Falcons shut out the wildcats 18 to 0 .This time it was a shut
out again but a lot harder battle.
The game kicked off
with the Ryan Rodger of the Falcons receiving the ball on the 20 yard
line and follow some great blocking to take the ball all the way to the
Wildcats 30 yard line .
The Falcons moved
the ball with runs from Nichol 21 and Macmillan 81 up to the 6 yard line
only to have it striped by the Wildcats.
It was the turn of
the now well known Fighting Falcons Defence to step up and halt the Wildcats
.Both teams defences
kept the game at half time to a nil nil score line.
In the second half the tied score line was broken when Game MVP Macmillan
81 for the Falcons took the ball for a 45 yard run
Macmillan said "The
back can only play as well as his blockers and the line along with some
key blocks from fellow running back Kyle and Harrison allowed me to open
the scoring .The point after was missed by Andrew Scot .
In the forth quarter with the Wildcats driving Jamie weir (NG) burst through
the line and forced a fumble which was recovered by Jamie Dickie .
The
game ended with the Wild cats throwing a hail Mary pass which Nichol picked
off to finish the game ..
Both teams coaches said that the boys played the game in a good spirited
manner and are a credit to the sport .
The Falcons would
like to thank Inverness for there hospitality and to both sets of Cheerleaders
for there vocal support .Finally the Falcons again would like to thank
there sponsors Davidsons Animal Feed .
