Big game. Big stakes. Your support could make the difference so spread the word!

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.

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.

Today’s Man of the Match was Nick Mortimer. A great shift down the left-hand side today from our recent signing from Edinburgh University.
Well done Nick 👏🏻

⬛️ Blackburn United 1️⃣
🟥 Leith Athletic 2️⃣
We were one up and in control at half-time after Calum McDowall set up Andy Jones early on, but a couple of slack moments allowed Leith Athletic to turn the game around in a four minute spell.

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.
