League leaders Armadale Thistle visit on Saturday looking to avenge our 2-1 victory at Volunteer Park in the reverse fixture and knowing that a win secures them the league title. A point would, of course, secure our own promotion.
🧵[1/3]
Just one more point from the remaining four fixtures will guarantee our promotion to the Premier Division. Failing that, promotion can only be denied to us if any one of Edinburgh Uni, Leith Ath or Crossgates Primrose win all of their remaining matches.

Following Bo’ness Athletic’s confirmed withdrawal from the football pyramid at the end of the season and combined with Saturdays results, the promotion picture in the EoSFL has become much clearer this weekend.

With no match tomorrow we thought we’d still give you your Blackburn United fix…
Our very own Brian Meechan found himself inside the iconic Allianz Arena, home of Bayern Munich, but rather than blending in he made sure he stood out!
Some things just travel well.

Audie was a flying winger who hit 16 goals, including a hat-trick against Armadale Thistle in Sept 1984. Paul was widely regarded as one of the league’s top goalkeepers, while Shanksy was a ball-playing centre-half who chipped in with 13 goals of his own.

Great to welcome some familiar faces back to the club on Saturday.
Ex-players Alan ‘Audie’ Simpson, Paul Kerr and Keith Shanks were in attendance alongside former physio and current committee man Brian Meechan – all part of the same squad in the mid-80s.

It was a productive evening at Paties Road for left-back Kyle McClung who not only picked up the Man of the Match award but also made his 150th United appearance since joining from SPFL side Livingston FC back in January 2020.
Congratulations Kyle 🙌

Tonight’s Man of the Match is Kyle McClung. The diminutive left-back has been excellent for us this season and put in a tremendous performance again tonight in a massive win - including one of the best touches and passes you’ll see all season.

With goal line clearances at both ends and the woodwork rattled by both sides, it was a Jones goal after some neat link up play with Hutton that was enough to take a massive three points.
