Jute Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Kelty Hearts 1-0 Stenhousemuir. First visit to Central Park and back up to having been to all 42 league grounds. Visit coincided with Kelty winning title with a hard fought 1-0 over Stenhousemuir. Impressive ground and set up. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Gave up supporting my team of 20 years for what are probably obvious reasons and started ground hopping with my partner. Started at Bo'ness United beating Musselburgh 3-0 on the 8th February. Bitterly cold but a great start.Then we were up North for the top of the table clash in the Highland League between Buckie and Brechin. A nervy game was probably to be expected and a 1-0 win for Buckie looked to put Brechin out the title race.I then completed my 42 at Kelty v Cowdenbeath. Cold wet night and a poor game.Then a more local one for us at Caley Braves v Bo'ness. For a new club in the central belt the Braves have a decent set up, fair play to them.Then down to the Borders for Gala v Vale of Leithan. The A listed mainstand is of course the star attraction. Good to see Vale being competitive but they eventually went down 2-1.Thr following Tuesday we were in Edinburgh for Civil Service v Bo'ness (I'm not a Bo'ness fan honest! Just the way the fixtures worked). Bit of a mission to find the park especially in the dark.Next was Buffs Park in Kilwinning for the Buffs v the Bankies. Good game and good ground. Fair play to Kilwinning moving stadium but staying park of their community.Next back to the border country for Vale of Leithan v Berwick. Absolutely terrific day for it. Nice folk now at Vale and I hope they can find their feet if indeed they do go down. 1-0 Berwick in the end.Today we stayed localish and went to Glencairn v Cumbernauld. I had been here before just when it opened but this was the first time back. Crazy game with Cumbernauld scoring from a softish penalty and finishing with nine men. Lovely folk at Glencairn and they've a good ground.Going to Gretna, Edinburgh Uni and Dalbeattie in the next few weeks to finish off the Lowland league then may go to various playoffs and West, South and East games while they round of their fixtures. Absolutely love doing it. Wish I'd done it years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig fae the Vale Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Vale FC 1-1 Glasgow on the Ball United. An entertaining game on a gorgeous sunny afternoon. Three red cards and a draw probably about right on balance of play. First time at Mountblow since the redevelopment (and probably the first time since I played there about 25 years ago.) Place is looking excellent. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marten Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Crossgates Primrose 3-0 Leith AthleticAlex Jack Cup FinalNew Central Park, KeltyAttendance: 664A great day for football and a very good crowd as a result. Leith Athletic started strong, but after Crossgates scored the first goal (which was then against the run of play), they dominated the rest of the game. Deserved win for them. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Random Matches I Didn't Go To:Just had a wee wander around Mackessack Park, home of Rothes FC. The groundsman kindly let me in to have wee look about. He was proudly showing off their two star signings: the twin robot lawnmowers! Up and down the pitch in all weather, some engine they have on them... Must get myself to a game here, it's a cracking wee ground. Pitch is being totally replaced this summer, lots of work ahead. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t need to spend much in the bar at Rothes as you can get pished just breathing the fumes off all the distilleries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Darv£l v Beith in the WoSL tonight. Darvel catching up on Fixtures and it seems to be taking its toll. Better chances but only scored after Beith went down to 10 men. Talbot's league to lose 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig fae the Vale Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 My dad's pal called off last minute so he invited me along to the Rangers B v Bonnyrigg Rose game last night. Not a B Team fan, but I'm not one to turn down a game. Was very disappointed by Bonnyrigg in the first half, expected more from the league winners, but they were much improved after the break and deserved their 2-1 win. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mantis Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Funny game fitba. A couple of weeks ago I saw Edinburgh Utd go to Whitburn in the League Cup section and pull off a surprise 3-2 win. On Saturday I saw Ed Utd at home to Penicuik where they put up a good first half show but eventually were overpowered 5-1. These pics are from last night at Penicuik Park where Whitburn came away with a convincing 3-1 win with Penicuik only getting a late consolation. The first pic is right at kick-off. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was there an orange ball? It doesn't count as real snow in Penicuik until the @penisnow twitter account rates it. No mentions this week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started at KO and went for about 20 mins during which I got some shite pics trying to capture the blizzard. The second one here is after about half an hour and the last one is just before Whitburn scored where you can see the clear skies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crow Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Penicuik Athletic 1-3 Whitburn @ Penicuik Park on Wednesday . The hosts came flying out the traps but couldn’t find an early goal and Whitburn deservedly went on to win and blow EoS League Cup, Group K wide open. Bitterly cold conditions for end of March.

Marten Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 (edited) Pumpherston 2-3 Lochgelly Albert East of Scotland League Cup group stage Locals I spoke to before game were very negative about their chances. They told me that due to injuries and Covid, they had to promote a few U18 players and play an outfield player in goal. In all honesty, if they wouldn't have told me, I wouldn't have guessed the goalie was an outfield player. Spirited performance from the hosts, but the guests won it deep into stoppage time.
