Derek
Sinclair scored his
first goals for Bo地ess
as his double was enough
to see off Edinburgh
United to progress in
the Dem-Master
Demolition Cup.
Blair
Lehardy was the Bo地ess
mascot for the day and
he saw his favourites
cope well against a
stiff westerly wind to
keep their goal intact
in the first half. The
BUs controlled the game
and might have even
scored as they created a
number of good chances.
As it was
they scored early in the
second half when a Kevin
Proctor cross fell
nicely for Sinclair
to score from close in.
Proctor nearly got on
the score sheet himself
in 64 minutes but his
header from a Kevin
Milne corner crashed off
the bar but a minute
later Bo地ess doubled
their lead. Gordon
Russell sent a free kick
forward and Sinclair
controlled the ball
at the edge of the box
before hitting a fine
low strike on the turn
to beat Michael Burgess
for the second time.
Edinburgh
hit back and Craig
Neil rose above Jon
Connelly to give his
side some hope and
Steven McIntosh nearly
equalised with a shot
that just missed the far
post. The visitors
worked hard trying to
take the game to
penalties but Bo地ess
held on and might have
even stretched their
lead late on with
efforts from Kevin
Donnelly and David
Morrison.
However Bo地ess got to
the finishing line and
will be pleased to get a
victory in conditions
that made life difficult
for both teams.
