Legless Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Boness 1 Bonnyrigg 4. With 3 centrehalfs suspended, 2 forwards at a stag weekend, two players phoning in sick and players out injured it was always going to be a difficult game. Some BU players looked to be playing through the pain barrier. We only had two subs namely Hogg the coach and Murphy the goalie. How the Bonnyrigg no 4 didn't get a straight red for swinging his elbow into the face of Morgan will always be a mystery. Murphy just back from holiday late last night, don’t know how match fit he would have been. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 No updates today lads ? Aye you’re on the wrong thread. Again. Boness 1 Bonnyrigg 4. With 3 centrehalfs suspended, 2 forwards at a stag weekend, two players phoning in sick and players out injured it was always going to be a difficult game. Some BU players looked to be playing through the pain barrier. We only had two subs namely Hogg the coach and Murphy the goalie. How the Bonnyrigg no 4 didn't get a straight red for swinging his elbow into the face of Morgan will always be a mystery. Thought Bonnyrigg would win today given our lack of players available, but that score absolutely flattered them IMO. I seen very little about them that suggested to me that we wouldn’t give them a good game of it had all our players been available. Great pass, cross and finish for Bonnyrigg’s first goal, as was the ball in from the free-kick for their third. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Heid Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Ref terrible? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo'ness Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Firstly, nothing but praise for the eleven who turned out today, Hunter & Andy Shirra not really fit to play, Dev only 15 mins and 1 training session since returning from injury. Andy having to phone his brother Jamie, just back from working in the Shetlands and hasn't kicked a ball in months. Players out of position. All of that looked a recipe for disaster, instead we got a fighting performance that did all of them justice. The final score did not do them justice My ire is reserved for those who plan stag do's and call off late for flimsy reasons and basically forget they are meant to be committed to a club. You may say 'why should they, it's only EOS level, not Premier League' but that is disrespecting the likes of Michael Gemmell who came off a night shift to play and often does.....because he's committed. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deanburn Dave Posted November 3, 2018 Author Share Posted November 3, 2018 One of the players was going loopy about certain players missing for various reasons Quite right. Get them telt !!! Had the BU's been able to field a fully fit best XI we would have given Bonnyrigg a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hip Priest Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Thought we did alright under the circumstances, and the scoreline was a tad harsh - although I suspect Bonnyrigg could have lifted it a bit if required. But I'd echo the praise for those who pulled on their boots for the cause despite injury, lack of fitness etc. Bonnyrigg should go on and win the conference at a canter. Hopefully we can get back to winning ways soon after three (league) games without a victory, although of our results so far only the draw with Haddington was a genuine disappointment. Nice to see some away fans as well... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great pass, cross and finish for Bonnyrigg’s first goal, as was the ball in from the free-kick for their third. We were right in line with the player who crossed the ball for the first goal and he was at least a yard offside before it was played to him. Credit to the guys who played yesterday. On the betting front Ladbrokes were still giving evens about Bonnyrigg at midday yesterday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted November 4, 2018 Author Share Posted November 4, 2018 I think Ladbrokes can afford taking a wee hit occasionally. Mon the punters !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted November 4, 2018 Author Share Posted November 4, 2018 For me the best XI for the BU' s is Murphy Snowdon Sime Campbell Hunter,. Gemmell , Morgan, Shirra. Mackenzie, Keast and Wright. Although 5 of them were in the team yesterday a couple of them were out of position and Hunter played although unfit. Biggest problem was our toothless attack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spency Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Not the end of the world not may teams will take anything of the Rose this season, looking strong. Suppose that’s the benefits of having a settled side last few years 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
