Bo地ess
wound up their pre
season friendlies with a
defeat against an
impressive looking
Kirkintilloch Rob Roy.
Rob Roy were promoted to
the West Region Premier
League and they could be
a force to be reckoned
with in the top league
in the West.
Kirkintilloch struck
early going ahead in 14
minutes when Chang
got onto the end of a
Vaugh cross to head in
at the near post. Things
got worse for Bo地ess in
28 minutes when they
went further behind this
time conceding a twenty
yard low shot from
Campbell.
Bo地ess
were struggling to get
to grips with the game
and only had a couple of
speculative shots from
distance to show for
their efforts.
At the
start of the second half
the BUs looked a bit
better and they were
putting the home defence
under pressure for the
first time in the game.
Magennis failed to hold
a Donnelly shot hit from
the edge of the area but
his defence bailed him
out with a scrambled
clearance.
Magennis
redeemed himself as he
held onto a Payne effort
but in 61 minutes
Donnelly came closest to
getting a goal for
Bo地ess as he smashed a
spectacular volley off
the Kirkintilloch cross
bar.
However
it was the home side who
got the next goal to
stretch their lead even
further. A Bo地ess goal
kick was intercepted by
Kirkintilloch and the BU
defence was caught out
as Broadfoot
zipped forward before
rounding Stalker to slot
the ball home.
Bo地ess
tried to get a goal back
but they could not make
the breakthrough and had
to suffer a few more
scares at the back
before a difficult night
was finally brought to
an end
The
early victories did not
make Bo地ess a great
team and equally this
defeat does not mean
that they are suddenly a
bad team. There are
players yet to come back
with hopefully a few new
faces yet to appear and
the important test for
the side will start on
Saturday with the visit
to Camelon.
