. He returned from injury and played through the pain barrier and his contribution was so vital in "The Blue Toon" picking up 3 points. He controlled the game in midfield allowing others to flourish.
What a player! To overcome the dissapointment of a missed penalty and bounce back like that speaks volumes about Lyndon Dykes. Been such an asset for the country.
A very strong contender for Spfl manager of the year would have to be Dick Campbell
@ArbroathFC
. The job he has done there has been nothing short of astonishing. The oldest manager in the Spfl, he has got them playing a style very attractive on the eye.
To come back once from cruciate ligament damage takes real guts and determination, but to do it 4 times is nothing short of incredible. Kudos to Lewis Vaughan

A heartbreaker, but for strikers not in a good way! Many players have been left heartbroken by Craig Nelson's ability to pull off extraordinary saves during his over 600 game spell in the Scottish football. Playing comfortably into his 40s he had a great career.

An appreciation post for Aiden McGeady. Nearly 37 years old and missed much of the last year and a half through injury but he still looks so incredibly quick, skillful and sharp. He must have worked so so hard off the pitch to still be in that shape. An inspiration to many.
17 years old. First start. A goal. A stunning cross assist. A perfectly weighted through ball assist. A clearance off the line. A penalty won.
