Would have preferred the other way around but at least we are there. As would I. Consolation it is 2 more pay days before the trip up North and is also a holiday weekend.

bravehearts dad Posted March 22, 2022 Author Share Posted March 22, 2022 So a gentle journey across the bridge to the Kingdom for a cup tie tonight. From recollection I don’t think we have played a Fife club this season. It will be another tough game for both teams , surely we can’t be a poor as we were last Saturday. The chances that we missed last Saturday will hopefully be converted tonight. It took us a long time to test the Dalbeattie keeper. It would be nice to finish the season with a trophy as well as the League, as we did when we departed junior football.

Footballfirst Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Comfortable 4-0 win at Dundonald after a goalless first half that was fairly even in terms of chances. Got the first goal just 5 minutes into the second half and it was plain sailing from there on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bravehearts dad Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 Yes it was a much better performance last night. The first half was fairly even and if any team had scored in that period I reckon it would have been to their advantage in the second half. But ‘‘twas not to be, an early 3goal blitz from The Rose in the first 15mins of the second half finished the game as a contest. I was as surprised as anyone when George Hunter made an appearance after a couple of months out and how fitting to see him score the 4th goal. Welcome back Geo. It was also pleasing once more that the goals were spread throughout the team, by 3 players who have not scores for a while.

bravehearts dad Posted March 29, 2022 Author Share Posted March 29, 2022 So last of 4 games with one of the Ugly Sisters in the LL season tonight. I will not be attending the ground that has great memories for The Rose. I have no idea what type of contest it will be at this stage of the season on a reportably tattie field. Good luck to the Rose. C’mon The Rose 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballfirst Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Good to see the Rose win again tonight and guarantee further daylight between themselves and the rest. It will be beneficial for the Rose to keep their performance levels up as they go into the playoffs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought they were holding back in the first half, was very disappointed, I expected more, but they were fantastic second half and it was a well deserved win in the end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bravehearts dad Posted April 2, 2022 Author Share Posted April 2, 2022 So it’s back to Cup duties today against a club who we always have a competitive contest against. I expect no difference today the BUs seem to have been playing better in the last few weeks. The Rose must keep up the momentum in view of the pending play offs. Wonder how many penalties the opposition will cough up today. It gonna be cauld so hopefully the game will keep us warm. Better get some money out from under the mattress and get my ticket for the HL play off match. Will go in the car for the away match.

Deanburn Dave Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Wonder how many penalties the opposition will cough up today.Don't you mean "wonder how many times we can dive in the box". Good day for the game. No blustery wind being the main factor.Mon the BU's !!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballfirst Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Rose won comfortably enough, while being able to leave out Horne, Stewart and McGachie. The game died a death after the third goal went in early in the 2nd half. Away to Spartans in the semi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 That pitch appears to gets worse every time we get beat there. (was going to put "play there" but knew a Rose fan would edit it)Any plans to improve it ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an interesting article in the Midlothian View yesterday regarding possible action on the pitch. I’ll leave it for you to find the article. It was a very comfortable victory for the Rose at the end of the day. C’mon The Rose 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bravehearts dad Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 So another Saturday , yes it is Saturday, but the Saturday the hard work of the last few years bears more fruit with the presentation of the Lowland League trophy. Overall winning the League has been deserved. It will be a day to remember and only correct that the trophy is presented in front of our own fans. We have always had tough games against the Shire with The Rose having the better of the contests with the exception of one due to a “dodgy ref” It’s been refreshing that we have kept the momentum up since winning the League at Berwick in preparation for the bigger game to come in the next few weeks. Looking forward to it. C’mon The Rose 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bravehearts dad Posted April 10, 2022 Author Share Posted April 10, 2022 So the last home League for this season has gone and I must say we have been well entertained at NDP, with many good performances,results and goals. Shire did give us a tough match yesterday and deserved their point after the 90mins. It was getting to squeaky bum time when we got the late equaliser. A great sight to see the LL trophy presented after the match. Well done The Rose and all associated behind the scenes. Momentum moves on and upward for the next few weeks.

C’mon The Rose I see the dodgy ref was back again giving out penalties... I was reasonably pleased with the draw, despite the late equaliser, as I assumed we'd get leathered by a Bonnyrigg side buoyed by good vibes. Anyway, best of luck in the play-offs when it comes, I always root for the LL team to go up just to keep things moving in the pyramid, it looks like Cowden are in not totally terrible shape at the moment (compared to someone like Berwick of a few years ago), so will be a stern test of whoever wins the first round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bravehearts dad Posted April 12, 2022 Author Share Posted April 12, 2022 So before I leave home for tonight’s game I have been wondering over tea what sort of game we may get. Both teams drew on Saturday and our tussles against each other have been close, so maybe extra time and I hope no penalties to decide the outcome.

bravehearts dad Posted April 13, 2022 Author Share Posted April 13, 2022 Well The Rose won the game fair and square (and no penalties). Again I thought it was another great team performance especially in the pouring rain, and great to see the goals being spread around the team again. I think that will mean a cup final to finish off our season and would be great to put another trophy in the cabinet.
