In most other games we would have won fairly easily. Hate to say it but Adams has a fantastic game and they scored from a scuffed deflection!! Positives are that we looked great going forward and defensively we were a lot more solid.

Could have asked the thoughts of the committee members on this point. If any of them apart from the usual two had bothered to venture into the club. Just saying.
I’m not really sure what it is you are actually saying. Maybe you could clarify.
As said above these guys will spend more hours per week in the club than you so what more could you ask for?
I am sure you can ask them on Tuesday night when once again they will be in the club.

No danger. We will be in the top five but doubt we'll win the league. We have a lot of home games in the run in and I reckon we'll take a decent amount of points from them. Trouble is how many we have dropped is too much to catch BU.
Agreed. Not sure others are as positive.

More chance of a relegation battle Alan!
The more people say this the more chance of it becoming a self fulfilling prophecy.
I don’t believe this to be true but maybe I’m in the minority.

Tell me the positives? You seem to see something I'm not seeing that makes you think differently.
You were hardly very positive on Scullion in your previous posts - yet you choose to have a dig because I make a general post of my view - opposed to your specific criticism of an individual player.
Indeed several other posters make far more critical comments than mine but my post is the one that you choose to criticise.
Since September our performances other than Broxburn have hardly been inspiring. Please feel free to tell me the inspiring performances I have missed - that would prove my original comment wrong?
I recognised in my post that Brown needs time. Unfortunately football is a results driven business and that's not a negative comment but a hard fact.
We are not in a relegation fight. The season didn’t end in September.
Your unrelenting negativity coupled with a sad obsession with another club gets annoying after a while.
My opinion on one player will be largely supported by most even handed supporters.
I have no idea what games you do and do not attend so can’t comment on that.
You said that Brown needs time but every player he brings in needs to deliver an improvement quickly - it’s one or the other in my opinion.

It was brought up and criticised at the time brains!
”Mostly due to the wind”
Really? I thought it was mostly due to you being fucking abysmal first half. Credit where it’s due though - Lithgy were a bit better and got back into the game in the second half. Mostly due to the wind.
”Much as I dislike you”
I didn’t even realise we knew each other. Pathetic.
I suspect you are fabricating a story about the entry fees charged and what time you entered the ground.
Agree we were honking in the first half and slightly better in the second. A draw may have been a fair result but where do fair results happen in football.

The problem is you expect overnight improvement. He is bringing in new players who need to bed in and be comfortable with the system he wants to operate. The word is patience. The Rose are not in any relegation battle.
Actually the best statement on this page so far.

The season was as good as over in September. 2 defeats and we sack yet another manager. Rightly or wrongly this sent out a message that we didn't have confidence in either players or the then management.
From the games that I have seen we have not improved since then either. Our results since are hardly inspiring. Broxburn being the exception.
I agree survival is now the realistic main aim.
Brown Ferguson needs time - but every player he brings in needs to deliver an improvement and quickly.
There’s the positivity in our support. Got to love a positive post.
You should concentrate on trying to wind up those over the hill with your dismal attempts at humour and winding them up. Your inability to do that along with your constant negativity really are embarrassing.
Everyone is allowed an opinion but when all you can be is negative then why bother?

Scullion has a decent CV. Maybe like a lot of players who drop down the leagues he needs time to adjust.
Or hang up his boots. I’m pretty sure they are diving boots as he can’t jump, drops back three yards further than the rest of the defence to cover his lack of pace and when he hoofs the ball forward your guess is as good as mine as to where it goes.
The Rose were woeful in the first half and hardly made a telling pass or kept the ball - credit to Bo’ness for their pressing. Hitting high balls forward into a wind is meat and drink to any defenders.
Better performance in the second half but still a lack of passing was evident. The last ten minutes we were on top but where was that passion and energy for the first 80 minutes.

I think too blame everything on Tc is ridiculous but it is time to let go needs to be a sub to bring on for last half hour or say cheerio if noone wants to do that
Where did anyone blame TC for everything?

Any coincidence that it was a good performance and Coyne wasn’t playing?
Well last season TC misses game at Tranent and we won 6 2 in our best performance of the season. He comes back in the week after and Beith hoover us 4 0.

@Hissy9 was very vocally critical of the BU from the sidelines today. All sorts of shouts about our “anti-football” and our approach being “launch launch launch!”
Hard to believe. Usually a very mild chap who keeps his thoughts to himself and always endears himself to the opposition.

Clearly you don't like supporters having a view. Changed days indeed now your on the committee.
I have no problem with supporters having a view - it’s a healthy thing as these as these are the people that keep the club running. As a supporter too I’m sure you don’t mind me having an opinion and calling you out.
I have a problem with “supporters” coming out with absolute nonsense. Talking of which I notice you don’t comment on me picking you up on your inability to count.
Good to see a true supporter like yourself is so up to date - I haven’t been involved with the committee since January.

Selection is baffling and not sure if this is due to injuries or availability. Thom starting on the left before Hutchinson was a strange one.
TC and Allum can't play together - for me the solution is start one then bring on the other after an hour. Coco for me should play if fit? As he would bring more out of both Allum or TC.
Looking at the sidelines we seem to have a larger coaching staff than replacements. Not sure the benefit of 4 in a small squad. (Coco isn't playing regularly so looking more a coaching role)
A good 3 points against another team struggling badly.You should stick to your great chat on other teams threads.
Is 20 really a small squad?
Does 4, if you include Coco, outnumber 6 if you include Coco?
Once again you slaver absolute nonsense whilst maintaining your typical negativity.
Maybe football isn’t for you.

That's a perfect example of why I don't think we'll be in relegation danger. We were dugshite for long stretches of that and a few of those players shouldn't be wearing the shirt. But Ruari slaloms through the midfield and slips Ronald in to create the chaos for the equaliser; then TC loses his marker and unleashes a dipper over the keeper from out on the right to win it with the last kick of the ball. There's enough talent that we'll score the goals to keep us afloat, but there's a lot of cracks being papered over here.
Adam Nelson... I thought he looked familiar, I presumed I must have seen him play against us for someone else. He could do a job for us right now.
Interested to know who you don’t think should be wearing the shirt. We know you have issues with the defence but let’s not sit on the fence.
Adam is a great guy and probably still can do a job at many places but the last thing we need is signing ex players with a history - I suspect that’s where we lost a manager this season.0 -
I have to say that that the social media provided by the club is without compare. For those that do social media the club won’t let you down.
For those that don’t I’m not sure how you keep them up to date as the people in charge can’t do any more to publicise what is happening.
The committee now are more proactive in keeping fans informed of things than ever and deserve applause for what they do.

How do I seem surprised?
Just the way you are wording that post.
Although I’m certain you knew tomorrow’s fixture and that the weather forecast would mean an inspection.

10.30 am inspection according to a committee man.
We are home to Whitehill Welfare he was saying.
You seem surprised at both?

Licence bought not earned.
Ah right - of course - forgot there was that part in the licence application. I’m surprised no other clubs take advantage of that criteria. Credit to our committee for using that to our benefit.

900 of your allocation must’ve been Falkirk fans and day trippers given your actual typical attendance.
I deprived 2 supporters of tickets just out of badness, which means there was probably only 198 actual Rose fans there last night.
When we next play in the Scottish it’ll be on merit, not because of handouts.I must admit I am intrigued - what handouts do the Rose get? And why would that entitle them to play in the Scottish Cup, rather than the fact the club holding an SFA licence?

Who days they aren't as requireD by licensing? A referee? as I said if their is changes to be made the committee will make it happen

You managed to give a committee abuse for failing to send a couple of tweets but manage to back another when a referee deems there to be a major failing in their work.
I have said before that committee members all deserve the utmost respect for the work they do. I hope in future you have a long hard think before sticking the knife into any committee for any perceived failing.

It's not really got anything to do with the SFA licensing officer(s) yet. If the permanent ones only just went up at the weekend the SFA proably haven't been round to do an audit.
So the options here are the Camelon committee that have met every licensing requirement upto floodlights, have known for about a year what the floodlights requirements would be, tested and hosted a game under floodlights. Suddenly, have gotten it spectacularly wrong.
Or the ref didn't fancy it.
Option C - bit of both.
I would suggest it has everything to do with the SFA licensing officers. Where else would you be given a certificate for achieving all set criteria without actually showing you have achieved all set criteria?
If the permanent ones only went up at the weekend how can you grant a licence months ago?
The SFA licensing board must take the full blame for this.

I’m not quite sure where you are on everything.
You are giving the new manager pelters whilst at the same time saying that the previous management team failed on the signing front for three seasons.
I am sure you can clarify.
