*Sponsor Spotlight*

The club have been indebted to Scott JCB, Dumfries for their kind sponsorship of the lads Training Kit for season 2023/24 that has just past.

Employees and Lochar players Jake Gemmell and Josh McVinnie are pictured in the Dumfries branch.

Jake has had a superb season with 14 clean sheets and was instrumental in Lochar’s cup success this season. Youngster Josh’s commitment has been impressive and the wee man has chipped in with 5 goals, one being a goal of the season contender.

Thanks once again to Scott JCB for their generosity.

Lochar ended their 2023/24 season tonight after they bowed out of the Cree Lodge Cup at the semi final stage after a 3-1 defeat to Abbey Vale in a game that was over shadowed by a poor all round refereeing performance, incidentally the majority of the game baffling decisions going against both teams.

Lochar lined up with 5 changes from Fridays cup final starting team with Kyle Braid, Craig Adamson, Liam Nish, Olly Cairnie and Josh McVinnie coming in to the line up

Vale opened the scorer after 15 minutes when an effort took a wicked deflection and somehow landed in the top corner, as Thistl

🏆🏆🏆 CUP TREBLE FOR THISTLE 🔴⚪⚫

Lochar Thistle FC completed an impressive cup treble this evening, adding the Tweedie Cup to this season's honours list alongside the League Cup and Potts Cup.

Chris Jardine's side defeated newly-crowned South league champions Dalbeattie Star FC in front of a healthy crowd at Palmerston Park.

A first-half goal from that man Peter Mendy was enough to secure a 1-0 win for Thistle, despite playing the majority of the game with 10 men after forward Robbie Hogg was sent off for an off-the-ball incident before the break.

The entirety of the second half was

Lochar lifted the Tweedie Cup last night after a deserving 1-0 victory over recent South League Champions Dalbeattie Star to make it two cup final wins over Star this season.

Lochar showed respect for Star by giving them a guard of honour before the usual cup final line up took place.

Lochar were at full strength and made 10 changes to Wednesday nights win at Sanquhar.

Both teams looked bright in the early doors as the sun basked down on the Palmerston surface. The first chance came on 10 minutes when good Dalbeattie play saw Dan Carmichael find space in the box but he could only find th

Lochar and Nithsdale met for the 7th time this season last night, this time in the Cree Lodge Cup Quarter Final at Lorimer Park Sanquhar. A young Lochar side came away with an impressive 1-0 victory.

Manager Chris Jardine rang the changes with Friday’s cup final versus Dalbeattie Star on the horizon. An emergency signing of Vinnie Parker saw the experienced stopper pull on the gloves. Rory Copland and Liam Nish were the only two starters from last weeks Potts Cup win.

Nithsdale started lively and Parker was called in to the action with three excellent saves in the first couple of minutes.

🏆 THISTLE vs STAR II 🏆

Palmerston Park is the place to be tomorrow night for the much-anticipated rematch between Lochar Thistle FC and Dalbeattie Star FC, as they meet in this season's Tweedie Cup final.

Thistle edged the previous meeting in the League Cup final 3-2 after a pulsating 90 minutes but Star have since consoled themselves by winning the league championship, and they will be keen for redemption this time round.

Victory for Eddie Warwick's side would seal a league and cup double and add the cherry on top of what has already been a memorable week for th

The dust has settled after last nights cup success for the club after a 1-0 victory over Queen of the South as Lochar claimed a second Potts Cup victory.

Thistle playing in their 3rd cup final were at near full strength, only missing Craig Adamson with a calf injury while on loan striker Peter Mendy was lining up on the opposite side as he led the line for QOS, ex Lochar midfielder Finlay Kennedy was also in the Queens line up while it was good to see another ex Lochar loanee Andy Oram taking a seat on the South bench after a lengthy injury lay off.

After the highs of our cup victory on Friday night it was back to League business last night with a trip to Lockerbie to face Mids. It was raining goals again as Thistle came away with a 5-3 win.

6 changes from the starting cup line up, with the most notable absence being Jake Gemmell who was replaced in goals by Sam Warren.
It was role reversed from Friday with Lochar finding themselves 3-0 down after 32 minutes, a wonder 30 yarder from Brian Mullen brought the away side back into the game at the half time break.

Lochar came out a different team in the second half and reduced the deficit

Lochar 20’s ended with a 1-0 victory over Bellshill Athletic last night at NWCC.
In windy conditions the winner came on 8 minutes when Harvey Craig volleyed home from an inviting Jack Caskie corner.
Chances came for both teams with Ben Wallace striking the bar and Zac Cairnie heading narrowly wide being the closest Thistle came to adding to the slender lead.
Some brave defending and goalkeeping from Adam Maxwell late on sealed an overdue win and clean sheet for the lads.

It’s game day as we welcome Lochamben to Dumfries in the South of Scotland League. With the rain still playing havoc with Wilson Park the game has been switched to NWCC, 2pm KO.

Lochar are currently on a great unbeaten run and old rivals Lochmaben will be out to put a stop to that.
In recent Thistle games, the goals have been flying in at both ends, so you just never know if that will continue today.

Lochar kept up their good form this afternoon after a 4-1 South League victory over Lochmaben at a wind swept NWCC.
Credit must go to both sets of players in what can only be described as extremely blustery conditions.

Chris Jardine shuffled the Lochar pack again with a lingering virus still ripping through a number of the squad.

Lochar broke the deadlock after 25 minutes when Peter Mendy struck. With the game being scrappy Lochmaben drew level 5 minutes before the break.
Jardine made 3 changes at half time to try and spark some life into the Thistle side as no team really had a foothold

In front of a healthy crowd at NWCC last night Lochar and Abbey Vale had to settle for a share of the points after a 2-2 draw

Abbey Vale saw themselves 2-0 up after 20 minutes which seemed to be against the run of the play as Lochar seemed to have good control in the game. A mazy run on 36 minutes from Marcus Zygadlo saw the youngster net his 11th of the season before a Blair Steele header brought the scores level at the break.
The second half was not as eventful in terms of goals but both sides did push hard for a winner, in the end up a draw was a fair result all round.
