Simmy87 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Bit surprised that no one from West Calder has been commenting on their good form this season. They ran the Super league leaders at the time, Kelty Hearts very close on Saturday and were winning 2-0 at one point. They were eventually beaten on penalties. I have to say that this would have to have been the result of the day for me , even though they eventually lost , and along with recent results in the South league, I would have to say that they could well be the surprise packet in the league this season and we will need to be at our best on Saturday to get anything out of the game with them . Watched then against Whitburn a few weeks ago and to be fair they played well in the first half but tired in the second with the game ending 2-2. Think they might just be a player or two short this season but as you say they might be the surprise team this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macintosh Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 WC, had a few tidy players in their team centre forward Tony Brown in particular. Dunbar have been playing well this season also however so should be a good one. Will keep an eye out for the result, nice people running WC.

palmerston Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 B New to this, so take it easy on me please guys.heard twin Thompson been appointed manager of Tranent,can some1 tell me why they didn't put it up for anybody to apply? Because its a lot easier to give the job to one of the committee's pals rather than go through the process of interviewing other people. It is called cronyism. Another short sighted decision at Tranent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeButNoButt Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I can understand why people say that about the Tranent appointment but let's give twinny a chance and see how he does. Let's be honest it's not like whichever manager comes in will get Tranent promoted this season, give him a chance I say. On the flip side of that of course, it might have been an opportunity to get someone in, maybe take the Haddington and Dunbar approach with a young hungry manager and give him this season to bed in and have a go next season at the league. Suppose you could argue either way all day about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying that Twinny won't do a good job but I feel that a new manager who is not a friend of the committee would have a more open mind as regards the team.

On that, has there ever been a club who's appointed a manager again after he's previously been there and been sacked? Not 100% sure but I think that Willie Pearson was very close to getting the Dunbar job for a second time in 2008 before they appointed Dave Lees. I think the committee was split on who to appoint...which ultimately ended in resignations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cammy@dunbar Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Good luck to Dunbar tomorrow against West Calder. This will be a difficult game as they have improved greatly and are having a good season. They were unlucky against Kelty last week , so the warning signs are there for all to see. We have a good record through there, but we will need to be at our best if we are to come away with anything and keep ourselves in the chasing pack.

Are there still a few carrying injuries?We are not at full strength, there are 3 or 4 still injured and Sam is not back yet. But that is what you have a squad for, opportunities for people to show what they can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
