Mascot
for the day Ben
Alexander led Bo地ess
United onto the park and
an interested spectator
was George O達oyle who
had just signed for
Carnoustie and the
former BU favourite will
also be the number two
for the Laing Park side.
There
were two new faces in
the Bo地ess side in the
form of goalkeeper Jon
Connelly signed from
Larkhall and forward
Scott Gallacher signed
from Fauldhouse.
The game
was a classic six
pointer and a single
goal was enough to see
Carnoustie leap frog
Bo地ess leaving the BUs
with a lot to do to
climb away from the
bottom of the East
Region Super League.
The game
was a largely scrappy
affair with neither side
imposing themselves and
the first half
particularly saw little
in the way of goal
scoring chances. The
second half opened up a
bit and Stuart McKay saw
a long range shot saved
by Michael Whyte. New BU
keeper Jon Connelly made
a good save from a James
Russell effort but it
was at the other end
where Bo地ess came close
to scoring with a
Stewart Kenny effort
rattling the crossbar.
As the
games progressed it
looked as if one goal
might be enough to
settle it but
unfortunately for
Bo地ess it was the
visitors who got that
goal. Ralph Brand
replaced James Russell
in 70 minutes and only a
minute later he put
Carnoustie ahead with a
low shot that beat
Connelly at his right
hand post.
The closest Bo地ess came
to scoring was when Gary
Ogilvie headed onto his
own post but they could
not score and it is
going to be a tough
struggle over the coming
months.
