Tuesday 11 August 2009. Culter kept up the good start of the season with a narrow win against Lewis Utd.
Cutter started like a team in a hurry, straight from the kick off they swept up
the park. A great cross from George McBain should have had the visitors in front
after seconds. In 10 minutes there was a superb interchange of passing between
Robertson and McBain, who crossed for Ryan Stott to dink the ball over the
advancing ‘keeper to make it 1-0 Culter. Two minutes later Stott should have
made it 2-0 but he dragged his attempt wide In 25 minutes Culter’s lack of
dominance in midfield led to a long range shot from Lewis United being fumbled
by Farquhar and let McKinnon score for Lewis levelling the score at i-i. After
28 minutes had been played Robertson scored at the second time of asking to make
it 2-1 in Cutter’s favour. HT 1-2. Lewis started the second half brightly and
could have equalised had it not been for a Greg Donald goal line clearance. In
the 48th minute Farquhar was called upon again to deal with another Lewis
attempt. Two minutes later Stott hit the upright as Cutter tried to regain the
initiative. On the hour mark a handball in the area led to the dismissal of C
Donald. Lewis then put away the resultant penalty through M Gains making it
2-2. Cutter rang the changes with Allan Youngson for Robertson and Sim for
McBain, as Culter still tried to get a grip of the game. lt remained level until
a moment of sheer magic from Mountford gave the Deesiders all three points when
he latched on to a clearance, turned and volleyed an absolute stoater past the
flailing arms of the Lewis ‘keeper in the 84 minute.

Saturday 15 August 2009. Culter progressed into the knockout stage of the Grill
League Cup with a win at Findor, Park, although the scoreline suggests that the
result was more comfortable than it was. In 8 minutes Cutter had their first
shot of the game through Chris Mountford but his effort was tame. On the half
hour mark Parkvale thought they had taken the lead but the referee saw a push
and disallowed the goal. In 33 minutes Cutter took the lead when George McBain
crossed for Mountford who saw his shot blocked, only for Richard Wyness to score
in the follow up to make it 1-0 Cutter. Parkvale equalised in the 4O minute
through Dean Taylor with a header from the smallest man on the park. Cutter
should have been back in front before half time after Foster’s shot was saved
but Wyness fired over from close range. Half time 1-1. Culter made a change at
the interval with Martin Cooper being replaced by Allan Smith. Smith would prove
to be the catalyst for the Deesiders second half revival. In 50 minutes Youngson
swung in a corner and Allan Smith powered a header past the Parkvate ‘keeper
putting Cutter 2-1 ahead. In 55 minutes Cohn Craik was pole axed in a fairly
agricultural looking challenge that resulted in the Cutter man being substituted
by M Middler. On the hour mark Middler wasted no time introducing himself to the
game as he played in Wyness who squared the ball for Allan Smith to make it 3-1.
Cu.lter made their last change of the game when EHis was replaced by Stott. Off
a 7O’ minute Culter free kck Ycungson came up with a wicked delivery for Allan
Smith to complete his hat trick with a bullet header bringing the score to 4-1.
Ryan Stott completed the scoring in75 minutes for Cutter when he was at hand to
stroke the ball into the back of the net making the final score 5-i
Cutter: Mcintosh, Donald, Craik, Foster, Cooper, Kelly, McBain, Ellis, Mouniford,
Wyness, Youngson. Substitutes: Stott, Smith. Robertson, Middler, Shand, Sim,
