HibeeJibee Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Shame a couple of late goals put a damper on the scoreline but fantastic effort from Broxburn to keep it 0-0 until almost the hour mark. Today was their 6th round in this season's cup. 1 hour ago, Romeo said: Weren't Broxburn a junior team last season? Their last season in the Juniors was 2017-18. They won EOS Conference C last season, finished last in the round-robin, and are currently 6th in EOS Premier Division. Over the last 3 years some 28 clubs have left the Juniors to join the East of Scotland League. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coventry Saint Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Will I ever get bored of fans of other teams jumping on the hook re this whole Broxburn away attendance thing? No. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 That is just bollocks, he had nothing to do defensively. Was planning to make a joke about Waters finding his level today but he still looks pish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BukyOHare Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Attack v Defence for most of the match, to be expected I suppose. I don't know what Saints fans will make of this display in the bigger picture though. Huge credit to Broxburn for a dogged, ugly, resolute display. Fitness and a class edge told in the end. Also massive respect to Jim Goodwin coming over to applaud the away support at full time. The pitch invader and anyone responsible for the stupid pyro stuff need to have a look at themselves. Probably a mixture of an empty head and cheap cider. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broxburn were (except for the keeper) horrendously hopeless, by miles the poorest opposition I have ever seen playing at Greenhill Road. In the first half in particular, every time the ball broke to one of their players he hoofed it away. Absolutely zero skill and no attempt whatsoever to play proper football. Do any of them know what making a pass involves ? I can barely remember a St Mirren player having to make a tackle to win the ball. Special mention to the pitch invader. Even pished he was Broxburn's second best player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddies1877 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 The Broxburn fans getting loads of praise deserve none of it bunch of arseholes damaging the seats in the away end plus several incidents outside the ground. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their main attacking threats, Miller, Ross and Binnie all started on the bench, so it was always a containment exercise. Having beaten a Highland League and League 2 side after 2 games, they are better in an attacking sense than what was on show today. Surely St Mirren fans going to watch their team at Ibrox, Parkhead or Pittodrie can appreciate the defensive mindset of the East of Scotland team, five leagues apart from the SPL team. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG BEN Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I thought your boys competed admirably. Deserve nothing but praise They came with a Gameplan and agree it wasn't pretty.

glenburn bud Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Despicable stuff from the rent a crowd Mob supposedly supporting the Junior club. Wrecking seats and launching bottles on to the pitch. The cretins responsible spent most of the game singing about us going down with Hearts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't asked to do anything defensively, though. Instead he was playing as an attacking full back and saw more of the ball in the first half than any other player on the park and he certainly didn't impress with the ball at his feet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 The Broxburn fans getting loads of praise deserve none of it bunch of arseholes damaging the seats in the away end plus several incidents outside the ground.As a Boness United fan I have been to loads of games v Broxburn. Their usual supporters are a credit to the game. Obviously a big game like yesterday brings out the erseholes who attach themselves to the travelling support for a drunken away day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Why did some of the Broxburn fans boo Obika when he touched the ball? Nothing happened in the game to merit it and there clearly isn't anything historical between him and Broxburn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasnt sure if it was him or the police at the time as they where moving around at that point but then they booed some other players, if they where near, so I never gave it another thought. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sums it up for every Broxburn fan. Back to the day jobs for them on Monday and every supporter is proud of our team. It's funny how some people can't see pass the negatives. Every time we've played it's always complaints. Happy to take our money for tickets and pies though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
