A lot of work around football happens quietly in the background. From trophy displays and pennants to winners graphics, presentation and raising awareness for Brothers in Arms, Nim Roy reflected on the effort behind making Friday night’s GDSFC final feel like a genuine occasion at Nethercraigs. The night also raised £397.23 for Brothers in Arms supporting men’s mental health awareness. ⬇️

Thoughts?

“It was my first final as a referee. I was buzzing all day.” Kevin Cownie reflected on officiating Friday night’s Brothers in Arms Trophy Final, the respect shown by both squads, and the atmosphere around Nethercraigs as Steins Thistle Sunday defeated Castlemilk FA 7–2. He also spoke openly about why the wider Brothers in Arms message matters personally to him. ⬇️

A chaotic opening. Seven first-half goals. Then complete midfield control. Steins Thistle Sunday’s Aiden McCann reflected on Friday night’s Brothers in Arms Trophy Final after picking up Man of the Match in the 7–2 win over Castlemilk FA. The midfielder also spoke about rediscovering his enjoyment of football since joining Steins earlier this season. ⬇️

From “no kits, no tracksuits, no balls” in the early days — to lifting the Brothers in Arms Trophy. Steins Thistle Sunday captain Bryan Maley reflected on resilience, togetherness and the journey behind Friday night’s final win over Castlemilk FA. ⬇️

So in London and there’s a match with a 9am ko. It’s @LFBfootballclub v @APPGUKPFC on the Astro next to the Oval cricket ground. And the expected enthusiasts are here! This is football! Firemen v Parliament

“Even when we went behind, there was no panic.” Steff Dunlop reflected on belief, standards and Steins Thistle Sunday’s response after recovering from trailing twice to defeat Castlemilk FA 7–2 and lift the Brothers in Arms Trophy under the lights at Nethercraigs. The Steins manager also spoke about the squad’s growth since last season’s final defeat and the mentality shown during Friday night’s turnaround. ⬇️ Full Inside Verdict:
