 + Match Report (By John Spowart)

Bo地ess were comprehensively beaten at Central Park as Whitburn severely dented the BU's hopes of staying in the top League.

Whitburn scored early when Ramage run ahead of the Bo地ess defence to play in Andy Roberts who had all the time in the world to stick the ball past Jon Connelly from close in.

Bo地ess enjoyed a good period of possession but they were unable to get back and in 21 minutes they went further behind. Darren Moonie streaked up the left before sending over a dangerous low ball and Andy Roberts was well placed to knock it in from a few yards out.

There was action at both ends but it was Bo地ess who got a goal back in 32 minutes when Kevin Donnelly got onto the end of a Stewart Kenny corner and though Scott Cantley made the save he couldn稚 hold the ball and Derek Sinclair pounced to score.

Whitburn made a good start to the second half and stretched their lead in 49 minutes. Alan Flanagan was unchallenged as he run through to lift the ball over the advancing Connelly the ball finding the bottom corner of the net.. With eight minutes to go the points were safe for the hosts as Gary Brown gave the ball away and Alan Flanagan accepted the gift to score his second of the day.

In 88 minutes Andy Roberts got his hat trick as the ex BU player pounced onto a miss hit Gary Smith clearance to shoot past Connelly and the misery was complete.

A disappointing day for Bo地ess and it will now take something special to get this team lifted for the difficult weeks ahead.
