ALL eyes fall on the ladies section at Fort Matilda this weekend ahead of two huge clashes this weekend, writes John Dyer.

Wanderers first and second men's sides have no matches this weekend after a long run of fixtures.

Whilst not ideal, the free weekend will give both sides an opportunity to put in some extra work on the training field.

It provides the first team with a chance to get an extra session before they take on Dunfermline in a vital clash at home on November 23, where they're looking to bounce back from their disappointing defeat in North Berwick last weekend.

The ladies' first team are away to Biggar who are top of the table, in what promises to be an enthralling encounter.

And after their rousing win against Ayr last week at Fort Matilda, they are relishing the challenge to cause an upset.

Elsewhere at the club, there is just the one fixture this Saturday, with the boys' under-18s going in search of another win, this time away to Whitecraigs.

On Sunday though, there promises to be a full card of action.

In the youth section, three sides will put their skills to the tests in respective ties as the under-16s and under-14s prepare to hit the road once more.

The under-16s will travel to North Ayrshire to face off against Ardrossan, with kick off scheduled for 2pm, while the under-14s head in the other direction, to Lanarkshire, to take on Cambuslang.

And it promises to be a busy day at Fort Matilda, despite the swathe of away ties, with four age group squads holding training sessions, from the under-15s down to the Primary five, six and seven age group.

In terms of match action on Sunday, Wanderers' under-13s will host Anniesland-based GHK at Fort Matilda, whilst the ladies second string will host a local derby when they welcome Paisley to Greenock, with kick off at 2pm.

Greenock Wanderers are grateful to club sponsor MMSEARCH and ladies section sponsors Straps of Gourock and Brow House Cosmetics.
