Dumbarton v Bonnyrigg Rose 23/3/24


Recommended Posts

Saturday will be a lottery due to the pitch.

It’s a complete embarassment and whoever signed off on fucking Kazakhstan u21s using it for training purposes is an idiot. It’s got to the stage I think the only thing that will knock any sense into our utterly useless and incompetent board is some form of disciplinary action from the SPFL, which can’t be far away given the state of the park. 

I have zero interest in watching two teams attempt to play football on what has to be the worst pitch in Scottish football above amateur level and I’d imagine the majority of our support are the same. Our board are an absolute disgrace.

Been pissing down on and off for the past 2-3 days. Some really heavy showers yesterday and overnight.

Anybody confident that this game actually goes ahead today> Groundsman should be down at the club 8:00 this morning starting to try to work on the pitch. Its going to be showery between now and kick off too. Can easily see this one passing a morning inspection but getting progressively worse towards kick off time.

He's been a bit busy, up advising Dundee on pitch maintenance.

Well it looks as if the game today will be going ahead. Not the best of early Spring days. As usual the games against the sons are turgid affairs. Don’t expect this to change today with The Rose now battling to stay in the League. We did score a very early goal last week but in the end was all in vain. Would be happy to come away from “The Rock” with something.

C’mon The Rose 🌹🌹🌹

The last one at The Rock wasn't ;)

How's the pitch looking?

I'd say the going was 'soft'. Probably not too dissimilar to the Peterhead or Stranraer games. If I was being mega-positive I'd say it might actually be marginally better than in the Peterhead game.

Or with this ref. 

He's made some very weird calls. Fouls he hasn’t given. One of the hammer throwers had a wee kick at Hilton (I think) right in front of him, which I can only assume he played advantage for, when there was no advantage.

Interesting technique from the referee to simply ignore Michael Ruth being kicked off the park.

Apart from the penalty he has given us absolutely nothing. He made it abundantly clear in the first five minutes he was giving nothing to Ruth in particular. 

We’ve been the better team but it has been a very scrappy game.
