Shotts boss John McKeown says beating Ardrossan Winton Rovers despite not playing well is a good sign of his side’s resurgence from a poor start to the season.
An Ally Martin penalty and a strike by Taylor Evans gave Shotts a 2-0 win over Rovers in the West of Scotland Cup first round, adding to a 1-0 win over Benburb on Wednesday, courtesy of a Peter O’Donnell strike.
That’s three slender wins in a week for McKeown’s side, who host Dundonald Bluebell in the South Challenge Cup third round this weekend, with a Junior Cup fourth round tie looming against Arthurlie on December 3.
