Deanburn Dave Posted January 8, 2022 Author Share Posted January 8, 2022 For the first 60+ minutes the BU's were the better team by a distance and at 2-0 there were plenty of opportunities for the third goal. Alas it never came and once Cumbernauld Colts got a goal back the game swung in favour of the visitors who looked like they were going to snatch an unlikely point. With substitutions and the consequential positional changes we looked to be struggling but fortunately the BU back line and keeper held out for the 3 points.Well done the BU's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Could have and should have won that game 4 or 5 - 1 today. Jamie McCormack MOTM for me. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnie Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 First 70 mins today were excellent played some good football and should’ve scored 4 or 5 last 20 mins we stopped passing the ball and giving it away to easy hence we struggled at the end MOTM McCormack he was excellent at full back today and could easily have had a hat trick today 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boheesian Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Yes we were good for the first 60-70 minutes but for the remainder we put ourselves under pressure with a lot of poor distribution. Galbraith and Grant missed easy opportunities to put the game to bed and that gave the Colts a chance to get back into the game. We were just clearing the ball back to them and the link between defence and midfield was non existent as we didn’t have anyone who was willing to hold on to the ball. The defence were outstanding in particular Jamie McCormack and also good to see Murray Carstairs back. Matty Flynn certainly puts in a shift and got no protection from the very weak refereeing. The big positive? 3 points 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karate kid Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I wonder if the formation played yesterday could have contributed to not being able to relieve the pressure in last 30 mins. Matty worked his socks off and held the ball up but with no one near him it just came straight back.Same when Kieran came on. If Nicky was fit and played in a 10 role it could help.Or playing with another striker who could help split their defence when on the offensive. Thought the defence was outstanding combined with Devon's efforts was a real positive going into the rest of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often why wonder why there is no quick response to Matty when he gets the ball surely that’s the idea of playing a hold up striker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolly Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Hopefully yesterday’s win will give us the confidence to push on again and get some points on the board after December’s blip. Hopefully we can keep a settled team which we haven’t been able to do much this season 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats on that, and has been one of the best keepers at the BU’s in years. Has is moments but what keeper doesn’t. Probably one of the best in the LL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue 8 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 I think. Devon was outstanding My man of the match in midfield and at the back hope he can keep it up and the rest of the team 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boheesian Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 The two clear cut chances that went begging in the second half is where we’ve missed the natural goalscoring talents of Zander. Might have to alter the team on Saturday if Flynn isn’t fit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) As a player who really splits opinion amongst the BU support, I feel that Ryan Stevenson needs some credit for his performance on Saturday. First half out wide on the left wing I thought he was excellent. Second half he fell out of the game a bit but so did the team as a whole.

bigwullieac Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 All the best to Kieran, same to Reis Peggle and Michael McFarlane who are headed back to their parent clubs. Need some signings in to replace them, and hopefully someone can find Craig Comrie at some point? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
