Newburgh boss hails his side after Sauchie victory

There was little in the game, Newburgh edging out their visitors 2-1.

Hudson was delighted to see the grit in his side as they were determined not to let the central Scotland side take anything home with them

The East Shore Park boss said: “Sauchie are a really difficult side to break down, they are well organised and do not concede a lot of goals so to come away with all three points was really pleasing.

“We restricted them to very few chances in front of goal with our defence playing excellently and maintaining their concentration throughout the game.”

Hudson’s side remain inside the top three of the McBookie.com South Premier League.

Seven points separate them from fourth place Kirkcaldy, although Kirkcaldy do have games in hand.

Newburgh return to Bo’ness Utd this weekend looking to avenge the late defeat suffered two weeks ago at the same venue.

Bo’ness go into the game second bottom of the league.

Kick off is at 2.30pm at Newton Park, Bo’ness.
