Central League: Second Division

  Greenock 3 - 1 Dunipace  

A disappointing performance from Dunipace saw them lose more ground on Blantyre with this 3 - 1 defeat at Greenock.

On the same pitch that the Pace had enjoyed such a great result against Port Glasgow in the Scottish cup only a few weeks before the visitors missed a host of chances and were punished by a Greenock side more than capable of taking theirs.

A bad day at the office for Derek Barron's men who will now need to put a very good run of results together into the new year to have any chance of lifting the league trophy at the end of the season.
