Man from the East Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 On 24/08/2021 at 04:52, GordonS said: The Battle of Dunbar was in 1650, not 1651. Also, I object to Dunbar being described as "to the east of Edinburgh". It took me a while to work out this was the battle they must have meant because Dunbar is fkn miles from Edinburgh. It's as near England as it is to Edinburgh. It's like describing Airdrie as a town to the west of Edinburgh. Aye but, as most people know, 1650 is actually the second Battle of Dunbar, the first being 1296 by Edward Longshanks (Edward 1st.). Same result mind you. As far as I'm aware Dunbar is to east of Edinburgh, Id reckon about 90% of commuters travel daily to and from Edinburgh and nowhere else. Its also approximately 20 minutes by car or 17 minutes by train from the nations Capital. I've never heard it described as anything other than east of Edinburgh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedLichty Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Some cracking fixtures tonight. Musselburgh vs Penicuik the pick of the day for me, with Tranent vs Lithgae off... will Nitten get a win vs Dundonald? can Whitehill turn over HoB? Tynecastle visit Dunbar, two teams who have a made a similar start but will Tynie get a bounce with Stevie McLeish going? Interesting day... the league, below Penicuik and Tranent remains very tight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camelon vs Sauchie as wel. we could be in trouble if we lose and with injury problems upto the eye balls 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omnishambles Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Even tighter between the top two again. 1-0 win for Musselburgh against Penicuik at Olivebank takes Tranent back to the top of the league by one goal on GD. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sauchie leave bottom 6 while Hill of Beath exit relegation places at Camelon's expense. Newtongrange still winless. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mantis Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Well deserved 3 points for Mussy. First look at the Rookie Cuikie this season but they never really showed up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man from the East Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 interesting results...Sauchie are making progress, Penicuik sadly lost the great unbeaten run that they have had, HoBH are picking up points, Nitten just cant get that first win of season, well done to Mussy and Dunbar United. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully good crowds turn-out, being an international break and Scotland not playing until 7:45pm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnieman Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Blackburn v Broxburn and Camelon v Linlithgow would have been a better "derby day" for the West Lothian clubs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaders won, there were impressive victories for Blackburn and Crossgates, but results-of-the-day belong to LTHV and Whitehill. Newtongrange are in deepening trouble. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Jones Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Derby day in the East Pf Scotland leagues this weekend. Burgh wanted to inflict defeat to the league leaders for 2nd time in 4 days, having already beating Penicuik in Midweek. Tranent though, wanted the 3 points to ensure that stayed on top, given their league placing was due to a better goal difference of 1. At the end of the match, it was plain to see why Tranent had only lost one match this season as they dominated th3 match for the full 90 minutes. Great local rivalry, and bragging rights so far, this season go to the bBelters. However, a loveLy touch at the start of the match. This is Mathu King’s testimonial season, postponed since 2019-20, due to COVID19. Tranent Captain, Shaun Rutherford, presented Mathu, the Burgh captain, with a present, at the start of the match, which I believe was a bottle of champagne, in a presentation box. Brilliant Gesture. Thank you Tranent! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
