Unst Beat Yell In Parish Cup Clash

In the senior Parish cup last weekend, Unst beat Yell 9-1. The goals were scored by David Mcmillan (x4), Gary Burns (x2), Connel Gresham (x2), and Bruce Johnson.

The Yell goalkeeper had injured his back in the morning as he was putting on his TV, so his brother played for him instead. 3 of Yell’s key players were injured so they did not have a very strong team. Unst had scored their first goal in the second minute and were 3 nil up within 15 minutes.

Unst will face Whitedale in the next round which is the Quarter Finals. Good luck to Unst F.C.
