Grassroots football in West Lothian is on the rise. No VAR, no extortionate ticket prices or sectarian nonsense, just proper Scottish football. 👏

With over half the East of Scotland league season completed Armadale Thistle have recorded the highest attendances amongst West Lothian’s ten clubs with, on average, a remarkable 232 fans passing through the Volunteer Park turnstiles each game. Our own figures, though, are pretty disappointing 😞

Saturday’s come back draw at Arniston Rangers was also notable for attacking midfielder Scott Richards making his 50th United appearance since signing for the club in 2022. Congratulations Scott! 𝘚𝘨𝘪𝘭 𝘢𝘨𝘶𝘴 𝘰𝘣𝘢𝘪𝘳 𝘤𝘩𝘳𝘶𝘢𝘪𝘥𝘩 #skillandhardwork #montheburnie
