Burgh have only played four games so far in the Central League First Division, and a result in the Keanie Park meeting with high-flying Maryhill would have been a great morale boost heading into the winter calendar.
LACK of league action is beginning to frustrate Johnstone Burgh manager George Walker, but at least the manager can find the silver lining in the string of call-offs.
