imho Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 19 hours ago, Man from the East said: Don’t know why you say the Camelon game was awful. The Mariners have just signed 25 new players in the recent past. They seem to be doing pretty well for such a degree of change. Perhaps the result indicates the recent progress made by DUFC, the corresponding fixture last year was 6:1 defeat - by all accounts it could have been double figures. Think it was a really bad day at the office on that match day. In summary you get a match between two teams with good records up to that date and it’s an awful game???? Doesn't matter who signs how many new players, the truth was, it was a poor game. You admit it was a bad day at the office so you agree it was bad. We have still had a good start to the season and 3 pts this weekend will put some real daylight between us and the bottom teams. Even the Camelon supporters I was beside agreed but because they won,it doesn't matter. We were poor but we have improved under the new manager and all I said was what the majority of people thought of that game. Its opinions and hopefully honesty but if people don't agree,it doesn't matter. Why did all your players leave anyway.? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was actually a good game in a sense It was a disciplined performance and dunbar were unlucky not to equalise when we cleared it off the line. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't seem able to understand whats being stated.......'Bad day at the Office' is a clear reference to being gubbed 6:0 at Carmuirs Park!!! Actually it wasnt a bad day, it was very a bad day. The Camelon Juniors supporter who quoted on here certainly doesn't see the recent match in the perspective as you somehow do. Actually I know nobody shares your perspective. 'Why did all your payers leave anyway' - gimme a clue, which club are you now talking about?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I know people who do share my perspective but it doesn't matter now,its gone. People are entitled to their opinion and if others disagree,fine. My view is it was a poor game. But we have moved on and are doing well, and have a chance this week against HOB, who appear to be struggling this season. For me , we need to win this one and pick up as many points as possible to stay clear of the relegation battle. .

For me , we need to win this one and pick up as many points as possible to stay clear of the relegation battle. . Hill of Beath Hawthorn will be a very very difficult match, it will probably be a little bit turgid. Again the most recent display by DUFC against HoBH was a very very poor, substandard performance, 3:0 or 3:1 , and it could have been a much greater defeat. Currently HoBH are suffering from player isolation and other factors. I'm sure they will soon be back to their natural level of performance and league position. It wont take them too long to re-establish themselves. Good luck to them - no team should be suffering from the player issues that many clubs recently experienced - notably Jeanfield Swifts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big thank you to the @EastScotlandFA Premier league clubs for sending numbers & crowds for attending! Would it be possible to include a table with average attendance by club? Most clubs seem to have fairly consistent attendances. However the LTHV swing from 200 v Musselburgh, to 90 v Dunbar seems a big swing. I'm reliably told that half of the crowd at Ainslie park for the DUFC match were Sunny Dunny followers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The games you mention LTHV v Musselburgh was on a Friday night so you add in the ground hoppers and the opening game of the season as factors. Musselburgh do carry a good away support as well. Hoping that we can use these numbers and the swings you are seeing to help clubs increase their gate. Friday games, early kick offs other games in region etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players left because they sided with the manager in the struggle between previous manager and the committee. Which started months of slagging and it appears untruths on Facebook. Also their was a player claiming breach of contract which failed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy groundhopper Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Some good crowds there, most clubs will even out to a usual number - increases for reasons already given. Expect there are quite a few hoppers who boost a particular game each week, can't wait to return North. Anything 100+ creates atmosphere and income, brilliant stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LTHV v Musselburgh being a Friday night (coupled with 'Burgh having a decent support) explains LTHV drawing 200 then, compared to 90 on a Wednesday and 75 on a Saturday. You see a similar effect with Bo'ness Athletic v Fauldhouse. Even allowing for the visitors having a decent support - playing on Friday night clearly turbocharged that attendance, as it was 279 compared to 84 v West Calder on a Saturday and 100 v Whitburn on a Tuesday. My own experience is an example... I went to LTHV v Musselburgh and Bo'ness v Fauldhouse basically because they were Fridays. Wouldn't have otherwise. Easthouses v Peebles have decided to bring forward their game from this Saturday onto this Friday night. Interesting to see how it fares. Easthouses previously posted 84 (Tuesday), 56 (Saturday) and 106 (another Saturday in cup-tie). Peebles haven't much of a travelling support but there are U20s games nearby. Without overdoing it - you wouldn't want multiple games the same night, or the same club numerous times - it I hope more give it a try. Not just for ground clashes or groundhops.

I also attended both games. Massive crowd at Bo'ness also boosted by around 20-30 West Ham fans who took a punt on being able to get in to the Celtic game the day after. Should be applauded, if a club like Easthouses has a Saturday game with Nitten, Bonnyrigg etc playing at home then they have nothing to lose moving it. The WOSL have done my tits in with nothing tonight but a fullish card tomorrow - 1 team moving to tonight would surely have got a bigger crowd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted August 6, 2021 Author Share Posted August 6, 2021 Saturday 7th August Camelon v Dundonald Bluebell Dunbar United v Hill of Beath Hawthorn Linlithgow Rose v Penicuik Athletic Musselburgh Athletic v Jeanfield Swifts Newtongrange Star v Blackburn United Tranent v Sauchie Tynecastle v Broxburn Athletic Whitehill Welfare v Lothian Thistle HV Match of the Day unquestionably at Prestonfield where 4th-place Linlithgow host 2nd-place Penicuik... Musselburgh v Jeanfield also looks an especially attractive match. Opposite end of table sees an important encounter in Whitehill v LTHV. Not quite a full card as Crossgates and Inverkeithing undertake Alex Jack Cup duties. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drs Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Were Camelon playing with an outfield player in goals today? He didn't look like either of the keepers on the website but did look like one of the listed midfielders? Whatever, not at fault for a 4-2 win for Bluebell - who i think hit the post/bar 4 times as well as scoring 4. ....and the first Dundonald goal Number 23 was clearly playing him on, everyone behind the goal could see it and we all saw the handball for the 4th as well. And none of the Camelon claims for pelanties were actual pelanties. Some embarrassing reactions from Camelon to decisions that the officials got correct, the team seemed to fall apart when they went down to 10 men. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
