1st Team

Match Preview v Motherwell B - 11th November

Nov 10 2025 14:16

Our games continue tomorrow when we host Motherwell B in the final of our six KDM Evolution Trophy league matches.

Out of the 30 teams, the top 22 will qualify and be joined by the ten Championship sides in the round of 32, with the draw taking place at 1pm on Thursday. We are currently 17th in the table on seven points, while tomorrow’s opponents sit 27th on a point and are one of the teams who will be eliminated at the end of this round of fixtures.

 

Ahead of the match, Manager Peter Murphy said “Saturday was very pleasing, we won the battles all over the park and added some quality to that to come out with a very comfortable and deserved 3-0 victory over a physical East Fife side. The games continue in the KDM this week, I think we should have enough points on the board to see us through to the next phase but we will be going out like every other game to win. The B sides have proved a different challenge for us during this competition and I expect similar again on Tuesday, young players out to make a name for themselves in the game. Saturday was a bruising game for us so we will look at who we have available and manage the squad.”
