  1. Exactly. Big man continuing the sh!thoosery post match. After the match I was speaking to one of the committee men who turned them away. He said one of their mum’s turned up to complain they hadn’t been let in. What chance have you got?
  2. Hard fought win yesterday, always a good feeling to get a winner late on, not so much when it is against you. we weren’t great, but we kept going to the end. we now have 57 points, with 5 games to go. This beats last seasons total of 54 points after 36 games. Well done Hunts and Gemmell. Extra incentive to get a result next Saturday, if my maths are correct. Should Colts and Tranent draw (good result for us) and EK beat us, I think they have won the league. Let’s not make that happen.
  3. Injury, likely to keep him out for the rest of the season
  4. I don’t think the way we played up to our front line worked when Dalziel was on the park. Long balls, missing Johnston and Porteous invariably came right back at us. Rovers were more physical and bossed us in the first half. We played more on the deck when Grant and Stevenson came on and looked much more threatening. We aren’t playing to our strengths, yet. There is promise in the squad and we will improve our league position from last season. word is we are unlikely to see Stenhouse back this season.
  5. Agreed, I’d rather we were doing well in Lowland, getting a bigger crowd, decent visiting support as more former EoS teams join, travelling to Linlithgow, Broxburn and Tranent rather than Peterhead, Stranraer and Forfar
  6. Added bonus, his da’s mental posts
  7. What happened to the Swan and the Portcullis? Did lockdown do for them?
  8. He came, he saw, he wound up the Mordor mob. Credit.
  9. But will you stay telt? I doubt it. It is a fair point. the average age of the starting 11 yesterday was below 25. We have a young squad, most of them are in their first season together. We are building for the future by extending contracts of those willing and moving on those that aren’t. We should be happy with the league performance. A cup run would be a nice bonus.
  10. Herdy and posse were enjoying the warm delights of the pie stall at half time. Second half may have given them food for thought.
  11. 18! Porteous 11, Grant 8, Stevenson & Stenhouse 5, McLean & Malcolm 4, Dalziel Foster Kennedy Travis McArthur Mooney 2, Hawkins Henderson Rutherford Gemmell McAuley Johnstone 1
  12. By my reckoning, this season we have played 26 competitive games, 20 league and 6 cup. We have scored 55 goals in those 26 games, failing to score in 6 of them. guess how many different scorers there have been.
  13. I’d heard Aitchie asked for segregation on Tuesday, not sure what the justification was. Maybe he sensed rebellion at there being no pies.
  14. Is there segregation tomorrow? Heard it was requested for Tuesday. Hoping not.
  15. You must be torn on who to watch on Saturday big yin. Will you stick to whoever is winning as usual?
  16. I think this is harsh on Ryan Porteous, by my reckoning he is our top scorer with 9 and we aren’t half way through the season yet, including 2 penalties (nuff said). He gets fouled a lot, wins us free kicks up the park. We could have done with that second half yesterday.
  17. https://thecelticstar.com/celtics-pertinent-lowland-league-problem/ Bugger off then
  18. I really don’t know how to feel about it
  19. I’m glad we’ve already played Rovers at home. This is migraine inducing
  20. McCormack scored the winner, Buchanan got the first, according to the BBC
  21. That was a tough watch, we made it hard for ourselves by giving the ball away so much. Ryan’s goal was outstanding, build up and finish. Very happy BU fan with 15 points out of 15
  22. Not often I’m this right and self praise is no praise, but before the bubble pops, called it
  23. Same, I thought 5 points from the first 3 games would have been good going. Second half was a tough slog but we did what was required.
  24. Hamilton? I saw him at the pie hut on Saturday
