Standalone Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 2 hours ago, Jambo'ness said: Today in 1951 it was Junior Cup 5th Round day and a trip to Dalry Thistle ensued. A 2-1 win was achieved with this team: Foote, Mitchell, McKeeman, Hogg, Thomson, McKie, Dunlop, Smith, Gardiner, Steedman, Ormond. The BU's came from behind through two goals by Willie Gardiner, the winner a penalty. 3000 travelled from Bo'ness in the crowd of 8600. The takings were £398 at the gate. Outside Left was Bert Ormond, brother of Gibby and Willie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Allan. 1 hour ago, John S said: 1 hour ago, Scuzz said: Big Allan. At Broughty That's right. Was not going to bother with that today but his hat-trick yesterday makes it more interesting. After scoring just 2 in 15 games last season, he has got 8 in 22 this campaign so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't happen to know which club Bert came from, do you? I have Gibby signing from Camelon Thistle in 1953.

I think Dalry was his debut for the BUs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only went on to play 6 games in total, scoring in his final game, the winner in a 3-2 victory away to Forth Rangers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team was: Hope, Moreland, Marshall, Thomson, King, Abel, Orr, Purden, Lumsden, McPaul, Watson. Davy Orr scored a double and Brian Purden & Brian Watson also netted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo'ness Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 Here's one to have you thinking. In 2012, away to Bathgate in a 0-0 draw, which player made his only appearance for the club, as a substitute? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closest he got was as an unused sub at Arthurlie in the Scottish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo'ness Posted February 12, 2019 Author Share Posted February 12, 2019 In 1955 just a fortnight after hitting double figures against Alva Albion Rangers, the sides met in the reverse League fixture at the Hillfoots and the BU's won 6-1 this time. The line-up was: Ronald, McBlain, Donnelly, Hogg, Boyd, Meiklejohn, Thomson, McMahon, Harrower, Hunter, McKeown. Goals came from a Jimmy Harrower hat-trick, John Hunter, Hugh McMahon & Billy McKeown. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo'ness Posted February 12, 2019 Author Share Posted February 12, 2019 Yesterday's teaser stumped everyone. The answer was Stuart Beveridge! No, I don't remember him either. Today, I want to take you back to 2005 and a 2-1 win at Thornton Hibs. The winner was scored by a player netting his very first for the club.
