AyeButNoButt Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Ask them. What is it that you don't believe in what nearly happened with us? They have had a good start, but nobody should be thinking that any teams are title contenders, this early, lots of twists and turns ahead, injuries, holidays, weather etc. Did you go to a game yesterday? Instead of trying to take part in a lot of different comments, why don't you tell us about your team and how they have turned things around since we beat them. To early like fauldhouse, Dalkeith, Edinburgh, Blackburn, Dundonald etc the last few years? No i didn't go to a game yesterday. Even Dunbar fans I'm here have acknowledged you guys would never have not had a team. I think it's great to see Dunbar doing well as it is Haddington and surprised no ones talking about Tranent who have done great so far. I just don't buy into your comments trying to say the situation was desperate when in reality it wasn't as bad as you try make out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am not wanting to get into a debate here or look back, but at the end of last season the outlook was bleak. The previous manager was spending money the club did not have and could not raise. Another 3 months would have seen us out of business.....audited accounts at AGM confirmed this. Only donations kept us afloat. The new manager was appointed with no signed players and a vastly reduced signing budget from last year, so it was not clear cut like you make out. What I will say is there is a positivity about the club now that imo has not been there for years. Long may it continue and its great to have 3 east Lothian teams competing well. Small steps though.

I just don't buy into your comments trying to say the situation was desperate when in reality it wasn't as bad as you try make out.There are NO Dunbar supporters on here will agree with what you think, not people who think they know that we would have survived, people that go to games ,AGM's etc, so I don't know where you get the impression that we are having you on, Ob1 has tried to explain it, again, you can bring it up as much as you want, but we are here, we know what went on. As for talking about TNT, I did say to you that you haven't spoken about your team ,who appear to have turned the corner, since we beat them. TNT is your team isn't it.?

Tiny Sally Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Watched Dunbar play lochgelly on Saturday, IMO they are a big strong side who are organised and athletic but I think they need a flair player to be challenging for the league title. The striker who scored their goal is a good player but I think he needs better service from midfield. Given the issues they have had over the summer it's credit to the manager n staff that they have the team they have. As for the game I think lochgelly can consider themselves unlucky not to have taken the 3 points.they started poorly n lost a soft goal ( speaking as a defender here btw) but I thought they grew into the game and created a few good chances and should have won it in the last seconds following a defensive error. 2 good sides tho - enjoyed the game.

12 Angry Men Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Can I ask why Tranent are referred to on this thread as TNT? I'm guessing it isn't simply a question of saving key presses as surely it's just as quick and easy to type 'Tranent' as it is to type 'TNT'.....so is there a more interesting reason that I'm missing?!

tamthebam Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 It can't be referring to Tranent as dynamite because they've been a damp squib for years.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnie_man Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 Blackburn Utd 0 Fauldhouse Utd 3 A decent game played at a good tempo by both sides, looks like that guy Swanny was trialling or has signed for The Hoose, scored the first and looks dangerous in possession. Goals came in 26, 49 and 88 mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goals came in 26, 49 and 88 mins. Towards the end of last season he was playing with one of the two amateur teams now affiliated with the Blackburn United Community Football Club I believe? Way too good a player to be paddling about in the amateur pond - just a pity Blackburn couldn't convince him to move to their own Junior side!

Theres bigger clubs tried and failed to get the wee man,even still trying to get him.Has scored 13 goals in his last 3 matched for his sunday amatuers and banged in 6 in 2 games for his saturday team,The guy is class just a pity hes no ambition to play higher.
