Less than  5000 fans  are now at Barbourfields Stadium. However, most Bosso fans interviewed say they are "expecting any result" as Chicken INN is unpredictable.

Half time Update: Its half time at Barbourfields still goalless.

Second Half Update: Second half is now underway with both teams still deadlocked nil all. No changes have been made...
