PREVIEWS

-------------------------------------------------------------
DIVISION THREE: Tartan Army v Spatula United,
Saturday 27th June 2009, Kick off: 19:00 CET,
at Bannockburn, Scotland.
-------------------------------------------------------------
This week, the Big Game Preview takes our first trip to Bannockburn, home of Division Three new boys Tartan Army as they entertain Spatula United in a top of the table clash.

THIS SEASON------------------------------------------------
Newcommers Tartan Army lie in second place after their opening 2 matches. Their season began with a narrow 1-0 defeat to No Surrender Gers in the Trophy before they held Colmans, who finished 3rd last season, to a 1-1 draw at home. They tasted their first victory last weekend with a 3-1 win at Norfolk Enchants thanks mainly to a double from Vince Mahoney.

Spatula United currently lead the way in their first ever season and have looked very impressive in the league so far. They began the season in the Norfolk Trophy with a creditable 2-0 defeat to former winners Dutch Warriors before winning their opening 2 league games. First Norfolk Enchants where comprehensively dispatched by 3-0 away from home, and last weekend it was the turn of MJH Stars to taste defeat at the hands of Bmillion's men.

First meeting

TEAM NEWS----------------------------------------------------
Tartan midfielder Juan Padernera is definitely out through injury.

Spatula defender Conor Roxburgh is an injury doubt but   Frankie MacFinlay returns from injury.

PREDICTION----------------------------------------------------
Two fresh, new teams who have adapted very well so far to life in the Norfolk League. We could be in for an aerial tustle with both sides containing a number of players dominant in the air. This could be a close game with not much to chose between the two sides.

PREDICTION: 1-1 draw.
