Yes, a fair summary. I thought if we’d got a 3rd it was game on but the penalty knocked the stuffing out of the comeback.
We’ve not won in the league since we beat you before Christmas and the confidence is a little low.
Finally, having been to most grounds this season I have to say that yours is the best grass pitch I’ve seen. How it’s in that good condition in February after all the wet weather is remarkable. With all the other refurbishment it’s very similar to Blackburn’s plastic version, which I also like. The lights worked too, mostly. [emoji106]
Would have been a nervous finish if you got the 3rd. Could see the game was done after our 5th goal though. Expecting a totally different game on tues. especially with 3 of our midfielders going off injured.0 -
Good result in tough conditions. Pleased with the amount of chances created

Better crowds this week tho.
Aye defo. Good few from broxburn against us aswell.0 -
We have a committee of 6 but at least another 6 who work on match days for the club. The club would struggle without them on match days

One of the issues the new office bearers had to face Belter! Not an easy task but it was sink or swim! Luckily we had new office bearers who'very got the badges!
The last 18 months has been a huge challenge for Musselburgh, but thankfully we have a committee and office bearers dealing with each task carefully to get a resolution which suits all!
Fair play to the committee for dealing with it. How many do you have on your committee?0 -
Tranent are not in debt nor are they flush with money but they have enough to cover the bills for the season. We have no overdraft facility and our treasurer is tighter than a mouses waistcoat so being in debt is not an option for us. Players wages get paid every month and the bills get paid on time. As a supporter I’m happy with that. If the club was in debt I would be very worried.
I’m not 100 per cent but I’m sure I heard that to get your licence you need to have a few years sound financial records so I hope Musselburgh can get things sorted. Think it’s minimum 3 years books required0 -
Glad you are getting the debt sorted at the club as clubs at our level should not be in debt and paying good wages. That’s simple business that. I’m sure if we couldn’t pay the wages for whatever reason we would cut cloth accordingly.

I’m not on the committee CJ as I’ve said before. I’m in the know with most things regarding Tranent though and it was Tranent who got in touch with Mussy and Haddington in regards to the floodlights and got it pushed ahead.

Wow! Are you ok, Rob, seriously?
Think we are all for a bit of rivalry but you! You’re on a different level, a real hatred pouring out of you.
Sorry to disappoint you but I’m loving every minute of helping my team. The fantastic work done at the ground is not done by me or my cash, it’s done by the amazing committee that don’t get the credit for their hard work.
I couldn’t possibly disrespect Musselburgh and their current committee/volunteers knowing what goes on at any club, but if I were you I wouldn’t be throwing derogatory comments around.
The past five years has been eventful; a league title, 3 cups won and beaten in a final from Penicuik, that’s not bad for a rabble!!
Here’s to the next 10 years...hopefully by the end of that decade you’ve lost the chip on your shoulder and not been fully eaten up by the mindless bitterness that threatens to consume you.
If it wasn’t for u matt they wouldn’t have got the £30k grant towards the lights either. Musselburgh committee weren’t pushing for it. Should be thanking the big T0 -
I think in about 3 years max we will not be in the same league as Musselburgh.

He’s jealous. His clubs been run wrong for years and it’s caught up with them.

Jealousy is ripping out him

Think he’s a bit jealous.

Beat like a drum today and a decent manager down? When do you think the money men will get bored?
On the plus side last time the club got burned down, this time you've scored a set of lights, not bad for a rabble.
Manky patter waft that1 -
That must be on of the worst weeks for crowds this season though.

Davie said last night he’s not interested in it. Just doing it to help the club out. As for Johnny I hope he puts in for it. Could do a lot worse.

Must be up there with one of the best jobs to get in this league and the league above.

Heard about 15 names. First time I’ve heard millers

Rugby possibly effecting crowds?

Tranent won 6-1 tonight. 5-0 at HT

Davie wanted to have a look at the players so the game went ahead. Think davie works most Saturdays and is just helping out as a favour. Not sure if he’s interested in the job that’s a question for him to answer. As far as I’m aware the club are starting the application process soon so will see what happens.

Dave McGlynn is who I'm hearing
Until the club appoint someone0 -
It’s a few games to early for me but I do feel the way we were playing we were out of the league. This is maybe the only reason I can think of why they are wanting a change. Calvin has done well at the club though so I think that’s where it’s a bit of a a surprise to some.

Or the new manager gets a "bounce".
Would need to be some bounce with the fixtures we have coming up0

To be fair the club spend a few quid on the park where others wouldn’t and it’s starting to pay off with the compliments they are getting. Players who are coming to sign are impressed with the whole set up now which is credit to all the guys on the committee. They all put the hard graft in. The money spent on the ground wouldn’t be possible without the money saved by the guys who can turn there hand to anything and everything. If we were paying tradesmen to do the work I doubt half of the ground improvements would have been possible up to now.
