PRAISE FOR JOHNSTONE BURGH

Councillors pitch in to congratulate Scottish Junior Cup champions

Renfrewshire councillors have paid tribute to Johnstone Burgh after they lifted the Scottish Junior Cup for the first time in 57 years.

The club have been formally congratulated for their achievement following a penalty shoot-out victory over Lowland League side Tranent on Sunday, June 1.

Striker Kyle Lafferty converted the decisive spot-kick to ensure a 4-2 win - sparking euphoria among the players and supporters - after a 1-1 draw in normal time at Broadwood Stadium in Cumbernauld, North Lanarkshire.

It meant captain Derek Esplin became the first Burgh skipper to hoist the trophy aloft since 1968 when George Caughey did just that.
