Budget Blinds Division One

ARDEER WEST RECREATION 1

ARDROSSAN CASTLE ROVERS 1

CASTLE'S promotion hopes were dealt a blow after they were held by local rivals Ardeer.

The visitors took the lead early on when David McLeod picked up a return pass from Iain Fraser before heading home.

Ardeer equalised with seconds to spare in an entertaining game, although they deserved more than a point. It was a really poor performance from a Castle side who just couldn't get going and were out-fought.

They will be hoping it's the wake up call they need as they go into their last six games, hoping to achieve promotion.

Man-of-the-match sponsored by Spicy Hut Ardrossan was Matty Coyle.

ARDROSSAN CR: Coyle; Smith, Brookes, Davidson, Kean, Higgins, Arthur, McLeod, Beveridge, Fraser, Farrell. Subs: Wieringa, Morgan, Kilpatrick, Lundy, Dunlop.
