I know the website in fairness put out the info only when the i’s are dotted and T’s crossed for signings but where friendlies are concerned surely updates can be posted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would probably be better as a holding midfielder than a centre half Maybe you've answered your own question there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather trust the judgment of Max and give backing to the lad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted July 4, 2021 Author Share Posted July 4, 2021 Plenty of effort by the BU players yesterday. That was the main thing I wanted to see. Better passing, match fitness and running off the ball will come over time. Once Max gets them playing a quick passing game they will be a good team to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo'ness Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Yesterday, we saw something that we have not seen for a long time and that was legs full of running. We had been an ageing side and could be cruelly exposed by young, faster outfits. I think balance has been restored now and our older lads like Hunter & Gemmell will probably benefit from having guys round them to do the running. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted July 4, 2021 Author Share Posted July 4, 2021 The BU website has a list of the squad numbers for this season. 1 to 20.They skipped unlucky number 13 and they left blank number 11.I am guessing Danny Galbraith who wasn't listed in the squad will be number 11.Biggest surprise to me was no squad number for Devon Jacobs. Has the wee man left the club ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwullieac Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Got to give a big congrats to big Hunts on taking the captain's band this season. Well deserved, has always been a player to help gee up the team and bring some focus when needed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the new arrivals and less of a promise of game time has made him want to move on? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure Devon’s only about 30… Wonder if a niggling injury or a change in work circumstances has prompted this. A wee man but a big loss if he’s away. Had a couple of superb seasons for us in recent years. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a couple of superb seasons for us in recent years. He is 30. Still has a year left on his contract so probably won’t be going anywhere. Heard he had joined the fire brigade so probably shifts might get in the way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photos taken at recent games show the locals are really struggling with social distancing up there so masks on and a bath filled with sanitiser might be worth considering before and after the match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
