Cumbernauld United 0 Glenafton Athletic 0Mark Roberts hit out last night at the 'shambles' situation which leaves Glenafton Athletic wondering if they have done enough to stay in the West of Scotland League Premier Division.The New Cumnock men picked up a vital point in a goalless draw with already relegated Cumbernauld United to move up to 14th place in the table.But they are playing a waiting game with league chiefs set to rule on whether or not last Wednesday evening's abandoned match at home to Blantyre Victoria should be replayed.Glens were 2-0 up when time was called on proceedings.

Blantyre arrived with just seven players and, when one of their number got injured, the officials had no choice but to curtail the contest.Assistant manager Roberts is adamant the right and proper decision is to allow the result to stand – or award Glens a 3-0 win – which would secure safety outright, relegate Rutherglen Glencairn and leave Benburb relying on Darvel clinching promotion to the Lowland League to stay up.Even so, the calamitous end to the campaign has left a sour taste in Roberts' mouth with the former Kilmarnock and Ayr United ace now looking for leadership and common sense from the top.The Ayrshire Live app is available to download now.Get all the local news in your area – plus features, football news and the latest on the coronavirus crisis – at your fingertips 24/7.The free download features the latest breaking news and exclusive stories while you can customise your page with the sections that matter to you.The Ayrshire Live app is available to download now on iOS and Android.He told Ayrshire Football News: "I know nothing about the situation.
