Forth disappointed in Glasgow 08 August 2010 Forth faced GMA for the first time this season in Yoker. With GMA lying just ahead in the league table this was an important match for Forth. GMA were lucky to get an early goal past poorly feeling keeper Natalie. However, this lucky goal was the exception, rather than the rule for Natalie who made some exceptional saves and clearances despite intense pressure from GMA. GMA took full advantage of the numerous substitutes available to them to wear Forth out with lots of running. Jenny Durkin had some good shots on goal and tried to put Linda Corcoran's corners to good use but shots kept slipping just wide. Newcomer Leigh Fell made an excellent debut, putting lots of pressure on the back marking her to free up ball for Jenny. Linda swapping into full forward from midfield changed the flow of the match somewhat and created even more shots for Forth that they were unlucky not to convert. Despite the pressure being exerted at the front by the forwards and midfields the short grass and sandy pitch were creating problems for the backs, making it difficult to clear the ball well. Although Úna Henry and Mairi Lawson did Trojan work as always GMA managed to break through once more before the end of the half. Man of the match: Leigh Fell and Natalie Nicholls | ![]() ![]() ![]() |
