Penicuik Athletic would like to place on record our thanks to Lumbert Kateleza, Kieran Watson, Cammy Dawson, Ben Weekes, Nicky Reid and Liam Robertson for all their efforts at Penicuik Park and wish all of the very best in their futures as they move to pastures new.
Having originally joined Penicuik in the Summer of 2017 after seven years at Arniston Rangers, the man affectionally known as 'Lumbo' has enjoyed two spells at Penicuik Park, becoming a firm fan favourite after 38 goals and 37 assists in 108 appearances, helping the club to both the East of Scotland Cup in 2018 and the East of Scotland Conference A in 2019. We wish Lumbo all the very best in retirement!
Kieran moves onto League 1 side Edinburgh City having spent three years with the Cuikie, establishing himself as a key member of our midfield since joining from Gala Fairydean Rovers in 2019. He made 75 appearances and bagged 7 goals, showing a remarkable ability for last minute winners last season, with three coming against Blackburn United, Hill of Beath Hawthorn and Musselburgh Athletic.
Joining on loan from Spartans last summer, Cammy helped himself to 11 goals in 38 apperances during his stint at Penicuik Park, including doubles in wins against Hawick Royal Albert United, Whitehill Welfare and Crossgates Primrose.
Making the short term switch on loan from Falkirk in February, Ben made his debut against Blackburn United and went on to appear 12 times, scoring twice in our final three matches of the season against Camelon Juniors and Crossgates Primrose.
Another making the move to Edinburgh City, Nicky leaves us as our top scorer this season with 26 strikes in all competitions having made 46 appearances over his two years with us after joining from Spartans.
'Robbo' has been a popular figure around the club since his initial stint with us in the 2018/19 season before returning full-time last campaign, keeping 4 clean sheets over 10 games in his two spells.
Again we wish all the players leaving Penicuik all the best for the future and we hope to see them back at Penicuik Park!
