Dean Learner Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Enjoyed your ground and the game yesterday. From your point of view, I felt you had two or three spells during the game in which you had us under a bit of pressure but never really got the impression that we were clinging on. Think the best chance actually came from your player robbing one of our centre backs on the edge of our box rather than a moment of magic. Thought we played well without being anywhere near our best. Well taken second goal and should have scored a few more after the penalty to make it three. No chance was our first goal offside but it did look like a clear handball in the build up. All the best for the season ahead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the home/away worked out so its just a divided fanbase and weakened teams being put out unless dates can be rearranged. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t see anything anywhere that allows this . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone earlier said trying to use the Development team. Don't think there's anything that bars it from happening. I know Stirling Uni have technically had to do it with university commitments. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigwullieac Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 On 13/07/2024 at 16:25, Deanburn Dave said: Positives :- BU's looked a bit fitter today. It didn't rain. Negatives:- Too many. We need the goalkeeper to show a better level of performance. We need a traditional centre forward who can pair up with Mitchell. Defending has been poor. Midfield is not functioning properly. Attack has struggled to create chances against decent defences. Don't think Hamilton and Rutherford have done enough to merit new contracts. Think Hamilton is a useful backup and should be retained, Rutherford is beyond done though, couldn't even last half a half at the weekend 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicholas Rage Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 On holiday so looking forward to Deanburn Dave's match updates Will the trialists do well? Will BU put in a decent performance? Will the young team make an appearance and stand their ground? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 Fin Malcolm nicks the ball and finishes well. 1-0 on 32 mins. We have been playing poorly . Trialist BU keeper (sub on Saturday). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deanburn Dave Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 2-0 Ball down the centre, Dale defender misses a chance to clear and Fin Malcolm punishes with a neat finish under ex BU Andy Murphy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 2-0 at halftime. Two good finishes by Malcolm but other than the goals he hasn't done much. Good:- Stevenson, Duffy and Hawkeye. Bad :- JJ (slows the game down unnecessarily ) and Hamilton (keeps finding players in blue.....but the BU's are in orange tonight) Plenty of room for improvement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 Loads of subs second half. Campbell is starting the second half + Porteous, Mitchell, Travis, Irving Off goes trialist keeper, Hawkeye, Hamilton, Kennedy and Johnston. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
