WSS: Good form and results after Christmas took the team to safety last season,
how confident are you that you can do it again this time?
JR: We may not be in a great position in the league at the moment but I feel since this time last
year, we have developed significantly. Our performances are strong, we’re showing we are
capable of competing against any team in this league, now it’s time to kick on in the second half
of the season and earn the crucial points that will keep us in this league.
Our thanks to Jasmine!
Collections will be made at the SWF Championship and League Cup final in Alloa on Sunday 11th
December to support two local charities in their work to provide gifts at Christmas.
Ahead of the showpiece game between Dryburgh Athletic and FC Edinburgh at the Indodrill
stadium, Love In A Box Clackmannanshire will be collecting brand new toys and other gifts for
primary-age children, while Home-Start Clackmannanshire will be collecting for older children and
teenagers.
With a 2pm kick-off, the cup final is the showpiece event of the performance leagues run by
Scottish Women’s Football which is being held in Clackmannanshire for the first time.
Dundee club Dryburgh Athletic are the holders, the SWF Championship side having beaten
Montrose 1-0 in last year’s final in Falkirk thanks to a nineteenth minute goal by Megan Robb. FC
Edinburgh currently sit six points clear at the top of SWF League One and are unbeaten so far in
the league this season.
Scottish Women’s Football is supporting the local work of the Wasps Community Club,
including inviting the girls’ team to participate in the game as ball girls and spectators will be
entertained by the Alloa Bowmar pipe band at half time.
For those unable to attend the game, donations to Love In A Box can also be dropped off at the
Alloa Morrisons Store, while donations to Home-Start can also be dropped at Office 92-94, Alloa
Business Centre, Whins Road, Alloa, FK10 3SA.
