    It's beginning to look like they're a spent force, but it's imperative that we hold up our end of the bargain as one freak goal or decision could be enough to earn them a result somewhere along the line. No easy games left for us now, so hopefully we can extend what's become a wee run of sustained decent performances.

    Stranraer at home in a couple of weeks is an absolute must win (not that we have a great record in those!)

    Funny how there’s never any trouble at away games with any other club in this division. Clyde always the victim

    You need to actually have some away fans to have any issues so it’s no surprise these are highlighted by the bigger clubs in the division 😉.

    In all seriousness though you are talking shite as evidenced by the two statements from your own club above and the recent goings on of some Dumbarton fans too.

    Poor post, naive comments. In only our 2nd season in the SPFL, it’ll take time (and a lot of money) to get our infrastructure in place. But we’ve our own ground, we’re not wracking ourselves with massive debt (and no rich sugar daddy here), we’ve a Board with the right intentions, a local community fan base with relatively realistic ambitions and we know if we’re relegated we’ll still be in existence in a few years time.
     

    Can you say that about your club?  Can many in the lower leagues?

    This is fair enough and I think the covered seating behind the goal is a fairly new addition but toilet facilities akin to your average building site is not suitable facilities for league football imo. There’s not much you can do about the state of that pitch without a massive expense but again it’s almost amateur level stuff.

    It’s one of the most basic facilities I’ve been to and I can see why some clubs are pushing for higher licensing criteria for promotion into the SPFL. We’ve now got Edinburgh city and Bonnyrigg whose facilities are unfit for the level of football they are playing at.

    Worst form in league in last 5 games.

    Worst form in league in last 10 games.

    Worst form in league in last 15 games.

    Worst form in league in last 20 games.

    Results don’t lie. Time for something to change or it’s back to Lowland League. 

    The lowland league is where your facilities belong. Two port-a-loos for the whole away end and the worst sloping pitch I’ve seen. Plus fat dumplings like McGachie in the team. Get doon.

    He’s probably been getting grief all game. He’s absolutely every right to be where he is. Absolutely victim blaming by saying what you have. He could have been targeted all game and you’ve got some bellend spitting at him.

    True, he does have every right to walk up to the Bonnyrigg fans and start making gestures and acting the Billy big baws. It doesn’t excuse spitting at him, but it’s just weirdo behaviour. Go and celebrate the win. 

  6. Hamilton shouted for the header and got caught under it, leaving smarticus with a tap in. He must love playing us.

    The rest has been about as pretty as expected. It’s good we’ve got a player on loan from the championship that can’t even deliver a corner, honking.

    I cringe every single time I think about the contrast in some between the Stenhousemuir result and Forfar or Stranraer.

    To be fair they were pretty contrasting results, surely you can see the frustration in being able to play the runaway leaders off the park one week then shitting the bed against 9th on multiple occasions other weeks.

    It shows that we have some decent fair weather footballers who can play a bit when the pressure is off but have zero mentality to put in a shift when it’s needed most. Not all of the lads but a good number sadly.

    Good to see my fellow fans are continuing their bipolar routine. They'll no doubt be sucking up the arses of each player should we get a result Saturday, which is entirely possible given the complete and utter gang that Bonnyrigg Rose present as. I'd fancy us to win as we definitely have more quality, but the Scottish national redneck rugby unit will be all about making it an eyesore in their shit pit as usual. If there's ever been a club that have brought less to the league system I'd be extremely surprised to see it, and I won't be disappointed to see the back of them when they go down in May.

    Rather than acting surprised when we shit the bed most of us have reached the point of expecting it (and will be pleasantly surprised if we get a result). It’s all very well having ‘more quality’ but not much use if you have a bunch of pea-hearted shite bags in the team. Time for the players to roll their sleeves up and show us they are up for the fight. Respect is earned.

    As for your last comments, I don’t think we are in a position to look down our noses at anyone. Bonnyrigg earned their place here the hard way, through good management putting them on an upwards trajectory. Quite the opposite of us.

    Saturday will require a rethink from Fossil McCall.

    You have to go there with the mindset that it is a complete battle and no football will be played. Play your physical players and any pea hearted sand dancers (Leitch) should be discarded. 

    That free flowing The Bully Wee that destroyed us won't get the chance to play any football on Saturday. Who can kick and head it the furthest?

    I fear for you in this circumstance. Are these boys prepared to go into the trenches for one another in that environment? Stranraer pitch is pretty poor as well and it could be a similar outcome on Saturday.

    Good luck to The Bully Wee.

    You’ve hit the nail on the head and I am fearful that I already know the answer.

    My bigger concern is that the condition of the pitch will make next week's game a downright battle, in addition to it being hugely important; two types of games these players have amply proven that they struggle with.

    This is my concern too. Bonnyrigg looked absolutely woeful when we played round them at Hamilton on Astro but I think the ploughed field pitch will suit them better than us. They may not be very mobile but they do have strong, battling players. We have some nice fair weather footballers but when it comes to getting stuck in and winning ugly I’m worried.

    It’s absolutely win or bust territory now if we can somehow come away with a win I’d still fancy us to not finish 10th, anything less and we are done. 

  11. Bonnyrigg up at Elgin on Saturday and Stranraer up at Peterhead, really puts pressure on us to take something vs Forfar to (potentially) close the gap on those two.

    Over the next 3 weekends both Elgin and us play each of Forfar, Bonnyrigg and Stranraer. It will either blow the relegation battle wide open or seal our fate.

    Big points needed from us, still very deep in the shit despite 3 wins in last 4. Hopefully the up turn in results can continue.

    A lot of talk about Dumbarton's trip to Stranraer but Bonnyrigg losing to Spartans would be great as well. They're really struggling just now.

    Agree, Bonnyrigg were dreadful when we played them recently. Our game there in a couple of weeks could be very significant, shame their pitch is usually a tattie field.
