2010
Eastvale’s first match of the season came in the form of a pre-season friendly against last seasons FAFA Premier Division Runners-Up, Lochgelly United.Playing with a pretty strong wind at their back, Eastvale started in an unfamiliar 3-5-2 formation but managed to get off to a good start, missing a couple of chances early doors. After 20 mins or so, Lochgelly found their feet and the first half finished with both teams pretty even. During the second half, the wind got stronger and so did Lochgelly ! Eastvale lost their way and never really got going, where as Lochgelly were hungrier and more mobile and looked the more likely to score. They were rewarded with about 20 mins remaining when they got a free kick diagonally about 20 yards out and Berry hit a cracker of a shot into the Vale net. Eastvale made a few changes but failed to impact on a hard working and energetic Lochgelly side.
