Pollok made it six points out of six against Kilwinning Rangers this season with a 2-1 victory over the league leaders at Newlandsfield Park. The visitors got off to the best possible start by taking a 3rd minute lead. The ?Lok rearguard failed to deal with Carlo Monti?s free-kick, allowing Craig Pettigrew to finish crisply. Pettigrew then kept his side in front, getting his body in the way to block Stuart McCann?s shot on the goal-line after the ball rebounded to him off the crossbar.

The homesters restored parity in the 33rd minute with a top quality strike. Stuart McCann nodded down to his strike partner Adam Forde, his emphatic first-time effort sailing over the helpless Adam Strain in the Buffs? goal. The scoring was completed in the 47th minute, Strain spilled a Ryan McGregor volley into the path of Bryan Young to net from close range.

Kilwinning came close to equalising twice during the second period, hitting the woodwork, before ex-?Lok midfielder Findlay Frye?s stoppage time challenge on Young was deemed worthy of a straight red card by arbiter Stephen Brown.
