I've seen a few posts about parking. When I go to Bonnyrigg games I tend to park on the A6094 (Polton Street) close to the Royal Oak pub. No need to go as for as Tesco or the High School. The side streets should be fine for parking also. The Anvil, Bannock and Beatroot are good for drinks. Beatroot is nice for food though booking might be required. Enjoy everyone.

Anyone have any idea if there's any pitch inspections planned today? Absolutely hammering down with rain in my bit of midlothian at the moment and a bit of standing water.

At the risk of being a bit pedantic the LRT 31 and 49 will both take you to about 50 yards from lasswade rugby club.

Seemed to be a luck of useable subs last night. Are Penicuik struggling for player numbers or fit players? Bit worrying if they are as the business end of the season approaches.

Well that's me shot diwn in flames. Still find it a strange format for such important games. Teams all around the world play home and away to provide fairness and balance. This format is not fair or balanced.

Who came up with this format. Why on earth are they not having the teams play each other home and away in a mini league?

Forbes played right back. Ryan Baptie plays left back at the moment and is pretty decent. Guess he could get moved further forward though. Still all good having competition for places.

Pleased they're adding bodies. Any idea where he plays? Think they could still do with signing one or more two though. Do hope Penicuik can get their licensing application sorted. This really is an excellent side they have assembled. Would love to see them go toe to toe with Bonnyrigg at the end of the year for promotion.

Excellent performance yesterday beating Broxburn 3-1 but only 2 subs listed. That can be far from ideal. Anyone know what the chat is here. Lots injured or are more players off to Berwick? On another note how did they manage to sign two players from Tynecastle, do the East of Scotland league not have a transfer window? The centre half they signed from Tynecastle does look an excellent signing though.

Guess the rush from Berwick is because they're rank and in serious danger of going down (assuming they go to Berwick) No idea why Penicuik would agree at this point though. Surely it could have waited till January and they could have asked for some sort of transfer fee? Shame, on their day I'd fancy Penicuik against anyone in the play offs. To be honest if they can keep everyone fit I probably still would.

Any idea on what the chat is with Penicuik getting a licence. Is it something they're hopeful of achieving before the season end?

Does it not really only leave Penicuik with Jones and Connelly as central midfielders? Yes others can play there but from what I've seen they're more wide players filling in. No way trying to be controversial here. Stay in Penicuik myself and watch them when I can. For what it's worth I think the combination of Jones and Connelly works best when they're playing a 4-4-2. Shame the three players have left like this. Could Penicuik not have held out till January? Maybe get a wee bit money. Go towards the cost of some toilets and hopefully being licenced.

Hume, Barr and Forbes have all been released from their contracts. I assume to join Berwick. 3 very good players and leaves Penicuik very short in central midfield. Might scupper their season a bit.
