It's not the club's fault. The current website just wouldn't support it. Really need a separate, bespoke site but that costs money I don't have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the most skilful or anything like that, but a wee grafter that could go 100mph all game and always gave 100%. Somebody told me he jogged down to training from Falkirk with his dog done the training and jogged back with the dog poor dog 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo'ness Posted February 16, 2019 Author Share Posted February 16, 2019 In 1952, the BU's lined up against Whitburn in the Quarter Final of the St Michaels Cup at neutral Armadale. On a heavy pitch the BU's ran out narrow 2-1 winners. The team lined up: Ronald, Mitchell, Tennant, Hogg, McBlain, Neillands, McKinnon, Liddell, Stewart, Kelly, Bishop. The goals were scored by Stewart & Charles McKinnon. If anyone knows the forename or source of Stewart I'd be most grateful.

Jambo'ness Posted February 16, 2019 Author Share Posted February 16, 2019 For a teaser today, we head back to 2002 when we beat Dunbar 3-0 away in the St Michaels Cup. Who scored his very first but certainly not his last BU goal that day? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garrellburn Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 20 hours ago, Standalone said: As you are enjoying this thread so much, here is question for you. Which player played with Kilsyth ( probably in 46-47 games you refer to) came to BU's and won a Scottish Junior Cup medal the following season. Clue, he was a Kilsyth man. I reckon that would be Harry Pinkerton, he had come to us from Falkirk at the beginning of that season and scored 11 goals. There is no record of him being with us the following year so my first thoughts were that it might have been him. However I cheated and by looking up the Bo'ness team in the final in Tom Purdie's book of all Scottish Junior cup finals 1946-75 got conformation. I didn't know he was a Kilsyth man though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garrellburn Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 A question for you, probably an easy one. What three scoring records does a former player of Bo'ness hold in regard to the Scottish Junior cup? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s another fun fact: Did you know that Specky is the only man in history to date to have a negative IQ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
