Any news on the new manager?
Not hearing very much, only ones I’ve heard mentioned are Hammill, Harvey and the Arniston manager.

Joe Hamill would be an obvious choice based on Simmy, his assistant at Musselburgh, getting the assistant's job at Nitten last week
Gotta think Kieran Renton would be on any shortlist too - an ambitious young manager. Or, Stevie McLeish?
I have no inside knowledge as a Musselburgh supporter, just guessing, but food for thought?
Don’t think Mcliesh should be anywhere near the place. When he left before , he trashed the club on social media regarding finances and their refusal to be taken over by a company who are now bust. Thought it was very unprofessional

Managerial rumour mill saying Joe Hamil got the job, interesting appointment. I think its a good one if true
Hope not , ruined a decent Musselburgh team . They need to open it up to applications. Great job for the right manager .

Dont remember hearing much said during the game towards the management, that only happened at FT. The reply back to the fans was surprising from management.
Question for me is where is the vision and ambition from the club? Relegation last season, 3rd this season looking more likely to be 5th in the coming weeks.
U20s doing well, looking like winning their league hopefully. Playing some good football with some players looking like they could contribute to the 1st team. Yet all we see is the same lads week in week out scraping some wins in a league we were meant to win.
With no signs of progression into a poor 1st team whats to keep the better u20s players with ambitions of 1st team football at Nitten next season?
This season could of been a great opportunity to add a few lads to a squad that needs energy in it.
One vision for the club could be progression of young players. If done in a balanced way you could gain a reputation over the coming years for giving the best youth a chance. Attracting better 16, 17 and 18 year olds to the u20s.
If you get this right you have a convener belt of talent to chose from and promote with a aim to sell and reinvest in experienced players to support this model.
All i know is the fans in the stand are always excited when they see young lads starting or on the bench given a chance.
Time for change the fans can get behind, needs a braver club than what we are seeing now.
I agree , need to be braver and bring the young ones in . There’s some good players in the 20s and it would be a shame to lose them to other clubs who would be willing to give them a chance . Sadly, it’s not going to happen.

Ian Flynn and Jocky McCrAw is a good appointment - just need to get thru this season and start from scratch next season with their own players

The manager should not need to be held back by players because a ‘buffoon’ shouted at him. Not acceptable. I believe the ‘buffoon’ in question has been a season ticket holder for many years and part of a group who puts money into the football club on a regular basis. Surely he can voice his opinion . I wasn’t there and don’t know what was shouted but ffs you can’t go around challenging supporters to fight!!!

Very easy 5-1 victory
Lilly very very very poor and apart from their scrambled goal didnt bother the stand in keeper ,,,,,,,
Welfare took the chance to rest a lot and play the rest , none really stood out apart from Froud up front , some looked way out their depth sadly
but its all about sorting out the starting 11 , probs be on Saturday for that if all available as some seemingly still injured or on hols
its getting there though
Very poor lily team , fantastic set up and hats off to them for all. The hard work put in - Fyn Connor I thought had a great first half, Yanni strolled it - 2 CB very comfortable - looking much better

My 3 would be crossgatea Blackburn and Dunbar but you never know one of the big guns could get dragged in
Think Dunbar are investing heavily in the team and crossgates are no pushovers

I noticed on Dalkeith site that they will be announcing a few signings in due course as Jock Landells has been busy securing signatures and also his backroom staff. Jock must have wondered what he had done for 9/10 players to disappear with his feet just in the door. Fingers crossed he can get a competitive squad together.
Think his reputation for free flowing football goes before him -

Big gamble for Welfare taking all those Dalkeith players that finished 8th in their League and hoping they will compete in either the LL or EOS next season
but good luck to the Welfare
Aye , tried that last year with the Arniston lads

We will most probably wait until their contracts with their current clubs have expired before announcing them.
Hope our squad from last season do well for you - we owe them nothing and they owe us nothing - players come and go - that's football stingyjag. Only the club endures.I would imagine a few ex Arniston players and a couple young Livvy players on loan
