Cowdenleith Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Great result Bo’ness, the Lowland League is clearly not as weak as some of the WOS folks would have you believe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you said a lot of outstanding performances but I’d make a special mention for Musa, he was fantastic, Gemmell who must have covered every inch of the park and Irvine, who wasn’t well known to the BU support before the game but looked as if he had been playing every game. Sitting with a glass of red wine and feeling good !!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we did start with our first choice keeper - who kept us in the game, I know that’s his job. Rutherford back at left back- rather injury prone, but McAulay is a more than capable replacement. Darvel moved the ball about well hitting the post and as previously said Musa at his best kept us in the game. We grew into the game in the second - half and Stenhouse took his goal well then a great cross from McAulay was duly converted by Stevenson.. I sponsor a player every season and last season it was Jamie Hamilton(injured) and this one it’s Rutherford (injury prone) next season I’ll sponsor the corner flags 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't checked the response from certain posters to what St Andrews United did to Auchinleck Talbot yet. That could be amusing. Seems to be a bit of a changing of the guard underway in the west. Reality is that the top end of the LL has been very strong for a while so the idea Darvel were strong favourites for this game definitely seemed off. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FK1Bairn Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 (edited) I went along to the game today with my son. I thought Bo'ness were well worth their victory today. Some decent defending once the back 5 settled down and the keeper kept the score level with some good saves. Didn't seem to be too many complaints from Darvel when the penalty was awarded, looked a stonewaller even from the other end of the ground. Great save by the keeper again early in the second half to keep the score at 1-0. Nice run by the big no 9 (Dalziel?) to make the space for the no 7 to run into and strike the ball low and hard into the corner though the keeper seemed to go down in instalments. The 3rd goal was well worked and there's just something about a move that results in one full back crossing and the other full back scoring Hoping Bo'ness get a home draw in the next round as I would love to go back. It was also really good to see the number of kids on the pitch at half time, is that a normal thing?

Hopefully a home draw and another decent crowd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 What a result. Gutted to have missed the game. who is Irving and I assume he’s a centre back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted September 24, 2023 Author Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) Danny Irving who arrived at start of season from Civil Service Strollers was playing at centrehalfs. He is a right back who can play in midfield. Not tall or strong but he won his battles and dovetailed well with Hawkeye. Always in the right place at the right time.

Scuzz Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Irving was my MOTM but it could have been any of a number of them. Great to see Michael Gemmell continue to play so well too. What a difference a week makes eh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
