Deanburn Dave Posted January 13 Author Share Posted January 13 Stuart Hunter appears to manage the way he played......honest, passionate and committed. Hunterball is getting the results. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that's him. Not the biggest of keepers which has maybe affected his appearance figures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Ruddy was at Cowdenbeath for the first half of last season, thought he was very decent. Played a dozen or so games but Maurice Ross seemed to change his mind quite often between him and Dan Farrell. I seem to remember Jack got rather bizarrely subbed (not injury related) at half time in an away game and he left quite soon after. One of the older Bo’ness gents on the terracing reckoned your goalie has his eye on a move up the ladder, and Ruddy brought in as a result of that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got subbed at Gretna after trying to waste time inviting the centre forward on to him before he picked the ball up. Said centre forward ran in and Ruddy couldn’t bend down quick enough and the guy kicked the ball thru his legs into the goal. ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition to John Ward who has been mentioned above a couple of younger players Murdoch and Fullerton were also moved on. Maybe the first time poster who made the comment is not happy about that for some reason. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musa has been in and around training with Raith Rovers for a decent length of time. Not ready for that level yet but have to presume there's some interest that got him in the door. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidan-bufc Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 2 hours ago, Deanburn Dave said: Referee was probably technically right with the cautions today but it really spoils the game for fans to have all those cards flying about. A bit of commonsense wouldn't go amiss. Agreed, both could’ve easily been let go without either team batting an eye lid at the decision. Both players were on a yellow and gave the ref a decision to make though. 11 minutes ago, Nicholas Rage said: Musa has been in and around training with Raith Rovers for a decent length of time.

Been a good keeper for us and had some unbelievable performances for us too. If he can cut out the errors he can go on to make a very good career for himself. Wish him all the best. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got subbed at Gretna had a complete howler for their goal so I wouldn't have minded Maurice saying something to him about it. I actually thought Danny Farrell was the best of the 2 last season. For me Ruddy has spent too much of his career on the bench the latest club being Dulwich I would rate the regular BU keeper higher. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholas Rage Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Musa reminds me a fair bit of Rab Douglas. A cracking goalie, but you know a calamity can be just around the corner. Guy is like a lot of young goalies though, early twenties and hasn't played a lot of football. After a couple of hundred games there's every chance he'll be a cracking goalie. Hope BU can hold onto him for as long as possible, but signing a new goalie (if he's signed!) would suggest he might not be long for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s still a bit weird subbing the goalie at half time, even if he had a brain fart. Same old story though, goalie makes a mistake it’s a calamity, defender makes a howler (eg first Bo’ness goal today) it’s quickly forgotten but the consequence was the same. You can’t tell I’m the Dad of a goalkeeper can you? I do get a bit protective about them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair he was one of three or four players who got hooked at the break that day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted January 13 Author Share Posted January 13 Musa is signed until the end of the current season. My understanding is the BU's wanted Musa to sign on now for next season. He won't commit to the BU's as he believes other clubs will make him better offers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a strange guy. Definitely got a mistake or two in him which explains why he's now playing at this level and not further up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart has been a tremendous asset to the club as a player, and now as manager. The BU’s have been so much more enjoyable to watch this season. I for one am extremely grateful for all he has done for the club, and surprisingly for BU fans, also have hardly heard a bad word about him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
