Duddy 1 Longstone United 5

Congratulations to Longstone United on winning the League Cup. We weren’t at the races at all. Longstone showed what a good side they are and the scoreline didn’t flatter them at all. Ryan Fortune with our goal.

It’s here! It’s GAME DAY!

Duddy 3 Almond Star 0

Rather predictable low key performance ahead of such a big game next week. 2nd half goals from Stuart Coyle (first for the club) and a brilliant double from centre half turned Striker Andy Johnston. We move on to next week and the Cup Final 🏆

Duddy 1 Corstorphine Dynamo 2

Very poor stuff from Duddy today. Opponents wanted it more and thoroughly deserved their win. We continue to be a very inconsistent team this season. Nick Yeomon with our goal.

Duddy 5 Links Alba 1

Another impressive win for the boys this morning to make it back to back 5-1 wins. Only 12 fit players today but they all put in a hell of a shift and we scored some great goals. Fortunex2, Connor, Colford and Stewart with the goals.

[Duddingston Athletic @DuddingstonAAFC]

Ryan Fortune breaks the 20 goal barrier with a brilliant double. Steven Kerr, Nick Yeoman and Scott Cairney rounded off the scoring.

Duddy 5 Oxgangs Trinity 1

Duddy advance to the last 8 of The Edinburgh Cup after a fine win over higher league opposition. Smaller squad than usual today but all 14 players made a great contribution. Probably our most pleasing performance since the opening day of the season.

[Duddingston Athletic @DuddingstonAAFC]

Young Tyler Stewart being the last gasp hero after Ryan Fortune had bagged a double either side of the half. Lennie doing his usual and saving a penalty meaning successful spot kicks from Nick Yeoman Scott Cairney Bruce Harvey and Paul Colford were enough to see us through

Duddy 3 Corstorphine Dynamo 3. Duddy win 4-2 on penalties. Into the League Cup Final we go but bloody hell we make it hard for ourselves. In charge of the game against 10 men but a shambolic 5 mins meant we relied on a last minute equaliser to force penalty kicks

[Duddingston Athletic @DuddingstonAAFC]

Game called off today just before kick off today due to pitch at Forrester High School not being lined. Remarkable. No wonder players are leaving the amateur game in their droves.

Duddy 2 Easthouses 3

Deserved wins for our opponents today. We had spells in both half’s when we were on top without creating big chances. Easthouses had multiple when they were on top and forced Lennie into many top saves. Fortune and Yeoman our scorers

[Duddingston Athletic @DuddingstonAAFC]

A brilliant late double from substitute Chris Scott winning us the points after Ryan Fortune x2 and Grant Mauchline had scored earlier

Duddy 5 South Gyle Rovers 4

Back to winning ways after last weeks disaster. Made it hard for ourselves giving away really poor goals but when have all our front 4 available, we always look like scoring multiple goals.

Duddy 1 Gotham City 3

We miss the chance to go back top of the table after an abject performance this morning. A vastly improved Gotham well worth their win. Scoreline flattered us really. Our goal coming from an og

Kinglassie 3 Duddy 3. (6-5 on pens)

Duddy bow out of the East Of Scotland Cup. Only got ourselves to blame after surrendering a 3 goal lead. Real shame as we played some brilliant stuff before the late collapse. Blackiex2 and Fortune our scorers.

[Duddingston Athletic @DuddingstonAAFC]

Duddy 7 Almond Star 1

Duddy progress in the league cup. Yeoman x2, Blackie x2, Castro, Fortune and Cairney on target

[Duddingston Athletic @DuddingstonAAFC]

@LinksAlba25 I know. We lost

[Duddingston Athletic @DuddingstonAAFC]

Links Alba 3 Duddy 0

Very bad day at the office today. Bright enough start from us but from 25 mins onwards it was pretty poor. Won’t get away with that against the better sides in the division

[Duddingston Athletic @DuddingstonAAFC]

Duddy 4 The Tangs 1

Made to work for our win today. The game was only truly put to bed in the last 10 mins. Scott Cairney (another header!), Nick Yeoman, Harvey Blackie(first goal for the club) and Steven Kerr on target for us.

[Duddingston Athletic @DuddingstonAAFC]

Duddy 1 Cottars Bar 3

Out the Scottish Cup we go. No complaints.Took far too long to get going. Bit unlucky at 1-2 being denied by a brilliant save and one cleared off the line late on before our opponents went up the other end to clinch the game. Ryan Fortune with our goal
