    A merger makes perfect sense.

    At the moment it looks like one club with drive and ambition and then you have United stuck in the 80's.

    Big man's team are stuck in the 90s, the 1690s 

  2. Think it’s 4 in a row penalty misses - not acceptable.
    That had to be seen as deliberate to get a red card - surely will be appealed
    Next two comments down to Management team - do we get rid of a third of the way through the league season and if we did who’s available?
    Something has got to give as it’s not a good watch recently.
     
     
    I make it 5 players have missed penalties this season, Hamilton, Hughes, Jones, Stevenson and Miller, though Miller scored from the rebound. Managements job to fix that.
    Who let Coll go on loan without a suitable replacement? Also Management accountability.
    Fully agree with YTO, Dan Watt should have been brought on, if fit, to hold up the ball and make chances.
    I did enjoy the banter between BU and Gala fans yesterday. Only heard that at home yesterday and against Tranent this season.

  3. 26 goals scored in 12 games, 15 in 3 of those against bottom of the league teams. Only 11 in the other 9. We need to fix that. Needless penalties and needless red cards cost us a 2 goal lead today. Whether we were the better team or not is debatable but from that position we should have won.
    We have 12 league games left this calendar year, 8 against teams below us in the league. Form and tactics need to improve to make this a decent season, to demonstrate an improvement on last season.

  4. Question time
    Excluding the Scottish Cup, In the last decade how many players capped by Scotland  have played against the BU's in competitive games ?
    Kirk Broadfoot and Ian Black. Are there more ?
    Andy Walker was in the Baillieston team Lex beat in th Scottish Cup final.

    George Connelly played for Sauchie against us. Best player on the park by a mile, he rarely left the center circle.
  6. Second this, Charlie bleeds Bo'ness United. I remember Charlie running the line in the 70s before juniors had linesmen assigned. Always helped me out when I needed to borrow a set of strips for tournaments.

    I  would like to give a shout for Charlie Patrick for his recognition  for 60yrs service to the BU''S by the SFA. A man of few words Charlie has been kitman etc. in all these years and can be seen wherever the boys are playing. He has experienced the very highs and the very lows of the club but could always be relied upon to always be there no matter what.
    Well done Charlie.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
  7. Still not convinced by Grant. He's the managers favourite, clearly, but disappears in games too often. I think we a short of options on the wide right.

    What's our strongest 11 ? Well 9 places for me are settled.

    Only 2 positions up for grabs.

    3- left back ? Ward or McCauley
    6- defensive midfield ? Hughes, Gemmell or Johnston

    1 Musa
    2 McCormack
    3
    4 Todd
    5 Coll
    6
    7 Grant
    8 Alasson
    9 Watt
    10 Hamilton
    11 Stevenson

    ...............what no Nicky Locke I hear you mutter.......fear not Nicky fans I am sure he will force his way back into the team.


  8. So on the one hand we've got posters saying that the rumour that things are not so good with the club regarding players are 'bollocks' and a 'lot of pish'.
    And then in the same breath, saying that some are taking money under false pretences by continually being unavailable for whatever reason and others picking and choosing their games?
    Huge contradiction there.
    This.
    And committee man using hyperbole to justify lack of updates on reasons for absence. Of course it doesn't need to be all media sources, but there are ones that the core of fans use that could be utilised, like Facebook, Twitter and Pie and Bovril.
  9. Saying crowd was 120 is generous. And at least 20 of those were boys staying on from training earlier.
    In 50 years I've not seen as disorganised a side as we were tonight. Players were out of position, sure, but they need to k ow what they are supposed to do in the positions they are selected in. Awful.
