Resurgent Neilston continue to climb table after impressive win against league leaders Drumchapel

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Neilston’s resurgence shows no signs of slowing down after they pulled off an impressive second win in a row against the WoSFL First Division leaders.Having beaten title hopefuls Gartcairn 1-0 the weekend before to knock them off top spot, the Farmer’s Boys welcomed Drumchapel to the Brig O’Lea Stadium on Saturday – the side that took over at the league summit.

The odds were stacked against Neilston, facing an in-form side who at the time of kick-off had only lost three league games all season.

But Kevin Muirhead’s team again proved they are an increasingly formidable side in the league, keeping another clean sheet and bagging all three points thanks to striker Darren Jones’ clinical finish.Having jumped up to sixth spot in the league on the back of three straight wins, Neilston could be forgiven for daring to dream of sneaking into a promotion spot.Manager Muirhead is adamant he’s simply focused on keeping the club’s standards at the heights that have seen them turn things around after a difficult campaign so far.Muirhead told Renfrewshire Live Sport: “It was another fantastic result and performance.

We knew we were heading into three hugely difficult league games against the sides at the top of the table, so to win the first two is a brilliant achievement from the boys.“This team continues to show great quality, as well as a desire to work hard.
