After the excellent result on Saturday Bo'ness are pretty close to last year's league winning level. 1 point less and 1 goal better. Looking at the remaining 10 games last year that yielded 7 wins 2 draws and 1 defeat which if repeated would see us on 62pts. Probably not enough so we need to improve on the 2-1 away loss to Tayport (Fauldhouse) and the 0-0 and 3-3 away draws to Kelty and Musselburgh respectively, 69 points WOULD win the league but a very tough task, but the current squad are capable of this.

In the old 12 team league appprox 46 points would win you the league if I remember correctly. That is about 2.1 points per game. That equates to approx 58 points in 15 team league . They currently have 58 points with 4 to play so tin my book they are certainties

Boness next 3 fixtures, Fauldhouse (A), Armadale (A) and Carnoustie (A), could easily pick up full points and have the gap narrowed to ten points with three games in hand.

Hopefully! But seriously, teams we still have to play after that run include Kelty, Linlithgow and Newtongrange as well as a trip to Musselburgh. Looks unlikely any team would win all those games. Kelty have it almost sewn up I think. In a way I was made up for Kelty yesterday. Going for the league, losing at ht to your Derby rivals and coming away with a last minute winner, that's what footballs all about. Progress on and off the park for Kelty this season, the future for years to come looks bright for them.

Been a wee misunderstanding here daleboy1969, gogsy is a Kelty boy.

All he was trying to convey is that there is a good possibility that Bo`ness could win their next 3 matches and only be 10 points behind Kelty with 3 games in hand.The words `could easily` will not have been intended as a slight on his part, individually or collectively, regarding any opponents involved in those 3 matches.

No other team will reach 60 points..

Im open to a wager from anyone

I will give you 1/5 on that bet. :-) Kelty will win the league with 65 points Rose/Bo"Ness/Newton will not hit 60

Bo'ness are well capable of winning the next 3 tricky away games,more than capable of winning our 3 remaining home games,Kelty & Mussy will be tough,but by the time we go to olive bank,hopefully they will be more interested in the junior cup final

Everyone knows this league is not over. I think Kelty need to win 3 out the next 4 to seal it.

Kelty could win 3/4 & still not win the league,if & its a big IF,Bo'ness win all their games,Kelty are favs.and rightly so,but as long as theirs a chance,well u never know

I know the maths. It's just my prediction on what they need to do to secure it.
