Cavanagh returns to Broughty squad

- BY JUNICUS

BROUGHTY Athletic have re-signed Danny Cavanagh on loan from Montrose until the end of the season.

The attacker goes straight into the squad for tomorrow’s Super League game at Newtongran­ge.

His return is a welcome addition for boss Jamie McCunnie, who, despite last week’s defeat from Penicuik, is looking forward to tomorrow’s trip over the Forth.

He said: “I thought we showed Penicuik too much respect in the first half but had a real go at them in the second 45 and, in the end, we were unlucky to come away empty-handed.

“We were without Graham Hay, Fraser Smith and Chris McPherson, who are among our more experience­d players. Hopefully some of them will be fit for the trip to Newtongran­ge where it’s never easy.

“We will have to make a better start than we did last Saturday if we are to give ourselves a fighting chance of returning with the points.”

After the cup heroics of last week, it’s back to the bread and butter of the Super League for Lochee United tomorrow, with a trip to Fife to face Kennoway on the agenda.

George Shields’ side will be out to complete the double over the Fifers, having beaten them 4-2 when they met at Thomson Park earlier in the season.

Confidence in the Lochee camp is sky high following last week’s great performanc­e and they now eagerly await the draw to see who they will meet in the semi-final.

Everyone came through the trip to Ayrshire unscathed, which only leaves Paddy Deane and Kevin Buchan on the sidelines.

If Jeanfield Swifts are to avoid a hattrick of defeats, they really have it all to do with a visit from league leaders Penicuik Athletic .

Swifts have their full squad of 17 available.

Carnoustie don’t have a scheduled game this week, although they will play Kirrie Thistle at Laing Park in a GA Cup tie if Thistle’s league match at Bathgate is off.
