It's win or bust for Port Glasgow title hopes as Undertakers head for Rossvale
PORT Glasgow Juniors know it's win or bust if they're to take the West of Scotland GreenVersity Division Four title clash to the final day. Rossvale stand in the Undertakers' way on the penultimate weekend of the season and six points separate Tam Jamieson's side in second place and Knightswood at the top of the pile. It's the business end of the season where everything is on the line - and with the league leaders having played a game more than the Port, they could seal their crown without kicking a ball, meaning the margin for error is next to none. The Parklea outfit head to East Dunbartonshire looking to regain their shooting boots, despite being the league's top scorers by a considerable distance. Their 0-0 draw at Newmains last time out handed the advantage firmly to Knightswood, who moved to within a point of the title by winning 4-2 away to Eglinton. Tomorrow's trip to the Kirkintilloch Community Sports Complex is by no means a formality, with Rossvale earning widespread plaudits for their style of play. Whilst their promotion hopes are over, they will still be looking to end their season on a high with the likes of Kevin Docherty proving to be a thorn in the side of many WoSFL four sides for much of the campaign. These two last faced each other early on in the campaign, with Jamieson's side securing victory in a five-goal at Parklea, and he'll be looking for three points again this time around. Goals from Alex McWaters and Ronnie Wilson cancelled out efforts from Docherty and Brandon Fallon on the night. A win in the 'canal capital of Scotland' would leave them needing a favour from Eglinton on the final day and beating the league leaders whilst Port need to beat St Peter's at Parklea.

Shocking footage shows prisoner repeatedly beaten and stabbed inside jail
Mobile phone footage has captured the moment an inmate at a Sydney jail was set up and bashed and stabbed by fellow detainees. Prisoners repeatedly punched and stabbed the inmate inside the Parklea Correctional Centre in north-west Sydney on April 27. NSW Police and prison staff were investigating the incident after footage of the attack was shared. The vision lasted about one minute and began with a burly internee entering a small cell containing five other prisoners. He was offered a handshake by one of the five while another man closed the door behind him. Immediately after he accepted the handshake, the burly prisoner was punched in the face. Four of the cell occupants then set upon the man, punching and shoving him around the small room while the fifth man filmed. The large inmate's attempts to fight back were overpowered. One of the inmates started stabbing him with a small item as he was bundled around the room. Another inmate appeared to set upon the inmate with a different item before he was warned 'not with that' by the man behind the camera. The men continued to attack the inmate while he screamed out in pain. One of the cell gang smacked him twice over the back with a metallic object, spurring laughter from the cameraman while the inmate writhed on the floor. The video ended as the cameraman called and pulled the men from their rival, telling them: 'He's good like that.' The man was left bloodied and cowering on the cell floor with his hands over his head. MTC, the private company that currently operates Parklea, said two inmates had been placed in segregation following the incident. A spokeswoman said all those involved had been identified. 'On Sunday, April 27 2025 Parklea Correctional Centre staff responded to a group assault of an offender,' the spokeswoman said. 'They have since received intelligence the assault was filmed on an illegal mobile phone and have identified the inmates of interest. 'The assaulted inmate was provided with medical treatment and there were no injuries to Parklea staff.' Police have yet to lay any charges in relation to the incident.
