bravehearts dad Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Hi guys, Thought I would have one final nostalgic reminisce of our time as a prominent Junior Football Club. Records which may remain in the record/history books for many years to come. 1) Record equalling score in Scottish Junior Cup Final. 6-1 against Whitburn in the replay in 1966 2) At the moment the only junior club to beat a Championship club in the big Scottish Cup. December 2016 1-0 victory away at Dumbarton. 3) The only 4 times East Region Super League winners in the 16years of the competition 2009, 2012, 2016 & 2018. Remind us of your favourite match, favourite/best player, favourite/best goal. C’mon the Rose 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brig O'Lea Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Always remember as a 9 year old, my dad taking me to the 1972 Junior Cup Final and the replay at Hampden as we lived just down the road. Sitting up in the old North Stand. It was really sunny and I thought the red and white hoops looked brilliant! In more recent times it'll be the 2006/07 Junior Cup, the last time Neilston made the quarter finals. After a 4th round 1-1 draw at Brig O'Lea, we won 3-0 in the replay at New Dundas Park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackD1908 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 All the best for the future. I'm very anti-pyramid; but Bonnyrigg are a club I'll be keeping an eye on really have the potential to do something going forward into the SFL. Sorry to see you go though. My favourite ever game of football took place at New Dundas Park, a great junior venue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boomtown Boy Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Ashfield away was amazing! That auld wooden stand was nearly flattened. But some of the best days have been Senior Scottish, Brechin away, Dumbarton away, Hibs at home (kind of) although Hibs gubbed us what an experience for the town. With this new move hopefully it will open up these possibilities on a more frequent basis which can only be good. Sad to leave but happy to be moving in the direction we are. I think in the next few years we will all end up in the same place and friends and rivals at the same standard will meet again. Hopefully a national tournament under the SFL for non league would be great but 1 step at a time i suppose. As i said in another forum, good luck to the teams in both associations. "Oh The Rosey Posey" Juniors over and out....its been good knowing you....its not you its me blah blah blah Oh, lastly, do we now need to refer to the users of this forum as "junior thicko`s" only kidding 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beat carnoustie 4-2, and then the final 1-0 win against Stonehouse. What a turnout when the open top bus arrived back at Bonnyrigg. 5-1 cup win against Boness at Lithgy , cant remember the year but so many more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
