Jordi1977 Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Thought you guys started pretty well today and were well on top first 15 mins. Our first goal was probably against run of play at that stage too - then a goal just before half time and 2 just after has killed the game completely. Hope everyone that came down at least enjoyed a pie! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope everyone that came down at least enjoyed a pie! We are so easy to beat. That’s been the case for quite a few seasons. It really doesn’t matter how well we play. We are so used to losing games of football it’s become a habit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say it was against the run of play but once you scored feared the worse, you took your chances (I think the first goal was the first on target) while we didn't. Our side is probably too young when everyone is fit we can be decent but not much depth. Injuries have killed us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowdenleith Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago It was pretty dispiriting when the two early goals went in at the start of the second half, was fearing 6 or 7. The guys never stopped trying, I’ll give them that, but the gulf was clear to see, but when there are so many first choice players watching from the grass banking, was always going to be tough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope everyone that came down at least enjoyed a pie! Fair summary, you are probably being kind! You do have a handful of complete cretins for fans standing in the shed. We were diagonally opposite on the grass banking but could hear them loud and clear f’ing and c’ing at Cowden players. Not because the players had done anything to offend, just because they probably thought in their own minds they were being funny. Strange mentality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely unnecessary abuse. 'Baldy b*****d' and 'ginger c**t' as well as the classic 'yer ma shags yer sister'. Absolute vermin who I'm sure most folk in the ground felt embarrassed for. As for the game, all us suffering Cowden supporters have experienced new lows over the past decade or so with the Bonnyrigg games being of the lowest but in my opinion, this was up (or down?) there. Broxburn deserved the sizeable win, zero complaints there. But seeing us torn to shreds through ineptude, feeble attempts at defending and being second to every single ball was hugely disheartening. When having to resort to bringing on a 40+ year old in Gary Fusco to tighten things up at 4 zip, that epitomises the downward spiral we've been on unfortunately. For the record, I love GF. I won't ever give up on my club, but today is possibly the first game I've ever thought to myself, 'why am I wasting my Saturday afternoon watching this?'. Minging is the adjective appropriate for today. Can't believe the difference in performance between today and the Morton game. If we don't buck our ideas up and get some of our injuries cleared up, I honestly fear the worst. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not regulars whoever they are, but embarrassing none the less. I genuinely thought they were away supporters. At least the Livingston Ultras (baby division) didn't get in to cause trouble. Well done to the committee and police for getting them moved on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordi1977 Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Injuries are definitely a big thing if you don't have a big squad. We've had a few ourselves this season, but just about got through it with luck of draw in fixtures and just about enough squad depth. Today we had 2 big players return after being out a while. Both played well and scored - we definitely won today's injury lottery. The colourful fans... you lost that lottery. Not regular guys - but maybe due to couple of slightly larger team not playing, they decided to pay us a visit this afternoon. Most of us are fairly jolly! Honest! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were standing with one of my workmates and his family who live in Broxburn and goes to the games sometimes. He was happier than I 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NELLY 1 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago First and foremost would like to thank the fans for their turn out today which unfortunately was a a disappointing day. The support was very good. The results have not been good nor acceptable. I don't want to mention Injuries particularly however there is no doubt that this has played a part in disappointing results and team selection for the manager. The manager and staff is working hard to get results for the club. This is a difficult period results wise and injury wise thus we need support more than ever. Massive game Saturday. We go again and will endeavour to be at our best sat for scottish cup tie. Cheers Nel Mon the cowden 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
