News::::Broughton lose out in Cup battle

West came out best in the BT Cup R2 on Saturday at Wardie when Division 4 outfit Lenzie edged out Broughton 20-36 to earn their chance of pulling out a big name in the next round.

For Broughton, it doesn't end there however as we go into the draw for the BT Bowl which may be an easier path towards the latter stages.

 
With 0 from 4, Our 'one-legged' kicker had an off day!

Johnny Wells, Hamish Martineau, Gareth Payne and Andy Dalgleish all scored tries, which on another day would have at least secured a point, but in the Cup it all counted for nowt!

General round the field support play pulled the west coasters through but they were let of the hook late on as a tremendous break up the hill on the right wing left Paul Maddison & Hamish Martineau on a 2 on 2 break, with Maddison opting to do a grubber kick for his support player to run onto, he inadvertently dropped the ball and the referee decreed that Martineau was also in an offside position and like Broughton's Cup hopes, the run ended there.  Lenzie, from the resultant penalty, worked their way down the slope and went over for the final score of the day.
