2016 saw a visit to Prestonfield, with the McLennan brothers making their first return. Chris Donnelly captained the BU's to a 3-0 victory. Stuart Hunter opened the scoring 5 minutes before the break. Ross Campbell & Fraser Keast killed the game off 5 minutes after the break.
The team was: Jamieson, Gemmell, Donnelly, Millar (Sloan), Hunter (Wright), Campbell, Keast, Philp, Strickland, Ru McLennan (Walker), Rod McLennan.1 -
All others correct.
Syme 3. Stevenson 16. Snowdon 4. McKenzie 18. Mitchell was the sub goalie and Mooney was 20. After the blood injury Syme took number 20 as there wasn't a blank numbered strip to replace his.0 -

Quick question, could anyone help confirm the squad numbers from Saturday's game please? I have:
21. Murphy, 2. Jacobs, ? Syme, 6 Comrie, 7 Keast, 8 Gemmell ©, 10 Morgan, 11 Nimmo, 12 Hewitt, 14 Grant, 15 Campbell
? Stevenson, ? Mitchell, ? Snowdon, ? Mooney, ? McKenzie
Just so I can ensure the highlights are accurate.0 -

In 2015, the visitors were Coupar Angus, in an East of Scotland Cup tie. They were dispatched 8-0, with four goals in each half. Doubles were notched by Robert Sloan and sub Darren Cummings. The other was an own goal.
As @Deanburn Dave was after a teaser, which player hit a hat-trick that day?

Sadly no, I'll have a look at the games he sent and see if anything comes to mind.
Did Jambo give you any teasers Scuzz ?0 -
1949 and the Junior Cup began with an easy 3-1 win over Kelty Rangers at home. Jimmy Walsh and William Currie scored as the BU's led 2-1 at the break. A dull second half was livened only by a last-minute clincher from Walsh.

Another trialist teaser today. In 2010, we beat Dalkeith 5-0 at Newtown. Who was the trialist forward that scored?0 -
Without the clues I would have got zero!
Well done. Got all three!0 -
Watt, Gibb and Nimmo?
Nope. As a clue, 1 is now at the wee rose, 1 left last season & 1 is with us.1 -
John Fraser?
Can safely say, this player played a big part in our success that season, playing 30 games.1 -
There seemed to be dozens of players signed every season back then lol, I'll take a stab in the dark and go for Barry Donald?
Teaser today. Which newly-signed midfielder made his debut in a 3-2 win over Edinburgh United in a League Cup tie in 2010?0 -

1954 and Camelon were the visitors to Newtown in the first round of the Junior Cup. The BU's demolished their opponents by 9-0. The only surprise being Alex Scott didn't get among the goals! Three players hit doubles, Jimmy Martin, John Hunter & Hugh McMahon. Andy McBlain & Jimmy Harrower netted, with Camelon completing their own misery with an own goal.
The team was: Ronald, Mitchell, McKeeman, Hogg, Boyd, McBlain, Scott, McMahon, Martin, Hunter, Harrower.
