Congratulations to Whitehill, always knew it would be a difficult game for Broxburn. Was gutted for the 9 man Broxburn team who almost made it to penalties. Good luck against Tranent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was quite a game last night. Went along as a neutral and fair enjoyed it. Hard lines on 9 man Broxburn but they kind of brought it on theirselves with the constant berating of the ref, from both the players and the dugout. No doubt that the ref had a poor night (nothing more so than seemingly forgetting to start his watch at kick off and having to re-start the game) but you need to keep your discipline. From a Whitehill perspective was impressed with the no. 6 in midfield and Ricky Miller's 'physique' continues to be at complete odds with his passing ability and general reading of the game - he was outstanding. Extra time meant getting home a wee bit late, but as above, really enjoyed the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partly agree with the discipline issues but for both the players sent off in normal time their first bookings were abysmal. But for experienced players the second ones were criminal by them as in both cases there was no danger. No complaints about the 3rd sending off at the death but the game was over then. Pitch was poor but ironically from helping Whitehill at 11 v 11 by levelling the standard. It probably helped the nine men of Broxburn to level the odds (and played a part in their equaliser). Whitehill have a number of decent players, but if 5 go down it will be a real struggle to come back up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay man same for both teams,deal with it, its traditionally a grass game bud. For the time of the year it's the best I've seen it looking in years. The club have spent a lot of money to get it to where it's at,it's not just a case of turning up for a plastic surface. I think we'll do ok next season,its gonnae be an expensive one for sure wi all the trips to Fife and Perthshire though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I right in thinking the second red was for the player who got booked for 'diving' even though (by complete accident) he got wiped out by a Whitehill player? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - didn’t think it was a penalty. As you say an accident but never a dive which is what he was booked for. Similar with the other players first booking. Has his arms outstretched about 40 yards from goal and the ball gets drilled against him from about 8 yards. Free kick yes but booking no! No issues with both second bookings they were deserved and stupid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll miss the trip to Rosewell next season always a tight game. While I’m gutted Broxburn went out, a part of me is pleased for Whitehill players, fans an volunteers / committee. I know how hard they must work to get a team on the park and at least in a difficult season the cup has brought them something to smile about. Genuinely wish you well next season, it will be tough 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
