Bo'ness history - Day by day

May 24th

2014 now and a tough visit to Hill of Beath.  The BU's knew that a win would keep the destination of the title in their own grasp.  Stuart Hunter made his 100th appearance in a hard fought game that saw substitute Kieran Anderson come up with the winner 5 minutes from time.

The team was: Peat, Snowdon, Devine, Murphy (C Scott), Hunter, Campbell, Walker, Sloan, Hislop (Miller), Donnelly, Gribben (Anderson)

This one will test the memory banks!  Back in 2008, we won 3-2 at Penicuik.  Which former BU player lined up at centre-half and captain for the cookie?

What a day that was, the absolute release of nerves when the ball went in the net was amazing

1951 and a Bo'ness side containing five trialists had a whopping 6-2 league win at home to Whitburn, who were to finish 2nd bottom. Trialist Lafferty, from Fallin Churches scored a hat-trick.  Other trialists at outside right and centre forward also scored.  James McGeachie was the only signed player to score.

The team was:  Foote, Mitchell, Tennant, Smith, Fitzgerald, Newman, Newman, McGeachie, Newman, Steedman, Lafferty

Here's a teaser anyone can answer but who will be right?  In our Junior life from 1945 to 2018, how many other junior sides did we play in competitive fixtures?

One guess per person, per day, please and we will run this over the weekend, maybe longer to get a good response.  Unless someone hits the nail on the head.

Prize of a pie at an away game of your choosing next season!

Brave to be first one up but a way short I'm afraid.  Only clue is that it is a 3 figure amount.

Plenty of guesses coming in #FreePieFrenzy

Probably forgotten Haddington will not be in the same division next season :lol:
