John S Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I thought Watt was away from the Rose. Not that it would have made any difference to my memory. Watt, Gibb and Nimmo? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo'ness Posted August 15, 2019 Author Share Posted August 15, 2019 Fairly easy teaser for today. This day in 2009 we won 4-1 at Dalkeith. Who was our trialist centre-forward that day? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo'ness Posted August 16, 2019 Author Share Posted August 16, 2019 (edited) A teaser to test your memory. 2014 and the BU's won 2-0 at Bonnyrigg, led by Max Christie. The inimitable Duncan Smith was the ref. Firstly, which BU player was sent off? Secondly, what was unusual about the Rose player's sending off?

Exactly. Kevin McLeish of Bonnyrigg was booked for dissent before he came on. One wild lunge after getting on the field and he was off! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
