     BU's CRASH TO THEIR 3rd LEAGUE DEFEAT

 

LOCHEE UNITED 4 BO'NESS UNITED 1

BO'NESS crashed to their 3rd league defeat and leaves them rooted to the bottom of the table after 3 matches.

United started strongly and hit the bar after 8 minutes but it all went pear shaped when Lochee netted in the 15th minute

 

Today's other league results are: Bathgate Thistle 1 Whitburn 0, Bonnyrigg Rose 3 Carnoustie Panmure 1, Linlithgow Rose 1 Tayport 1.

Saturday 16th September 2006


LOCHEE UNITED "LIVE UPDATES"

The website is going to try and set up a "live updates service" from today's match at Lochee United.

The kick off is at 2.30pm, so hopefully we will be online to give the full starting line ups before kick off.

This is the first time we have had the opportunity to add this system this season due to other commitments (well pipe band contests) so hopefully for those who can't make it today we will be able to keep you up to date. Check back around 2pm for the latest.

 

Saturday 16th September 2006


TRAVELLING TO LOCHEE BY CAR

ANYONE who is travelling by car to Lochee this weekend, you will get the road directions via the "Fanzone" page "Travel Guide." The map says it will be a 120 mile round trip so be prepared and leave early.

Some e-mails have asked about the Supporters bus time table, we will try and get you these times ASP.

Wednesday 13th September 2006


LOOKING AHEAD TO LOCHEE UNITED

ON the road again to the Dundee area. This time to Thomson Park, Lochee to play Lochee United. "The Bluebells" will kick start their league campaign against the BU's who will be playing their third match of the league season.

Still to record a point and already sitting at the wrong end Bo'ness will try to get some points on the board to ease the pressure already mounting.

Lochee United have still to make their mark on the league trail but have already set their standard in the league cup having played 6 won 3 and drawn 3. They sit at the top of their league cup section with 12pts. Having scored 19 and conceding 7, they are finding the net.

The league cup and the league are two different propositions and both teams know this is the main one and will treat it like a cup tie, so we will have to wait and see what Saturday brings.

Wednesday 13th September 2006


BOOKMAKER PRICE BO'NESS  3/1 AT LOCHEE

 

This weekend Bookmakers William Hill have priced Bo'ness at 3/1 away to Lochee United. 4/6 Lochee and 13/5 the draw.

BO'NESS PAY RESPECT TO LEGEND

There was a minutes silence prior to yesterday's game in memory of Jimmy Harrower who died earlier in the week.

Jimmy was centre forward for Bo’ness in season 1954/55 before he moved on to play with Hibs and Liverpool. Jimmy was part of a successful forward line that included Alex Scott who went on to make his name with Rangers and Scotland. Jimmy was a strong bustling forward who is fondly remembered as one of the best players ever to don the blue shirt of Bo’ness United.

Saturday 9th September 2006


BO'NESS UNITED 1 CAMELON 2

Camelon scored their third victory of the season against Bo’ness with a narrow victory that leaves the BU's struggling at this early stage in the League.

Saturday 9th September 2006


LOOKING AHEAD TO CAMELON

WITH the injury crisis at Newtown we will have to wait until nearer kick off to see who is fit enough for the first home league match of the season.

The BU faithful will be out hoping their team can over turn the defeats from Camelon already in the League Cup. Hoping they can take some of the chances which went a stray in the last match at Newtown.

Camelon started their league campaign off with an away win in Fife at Hill of Beath Hawthorn then went down by 1 goal to nil against high flying Linlithgow Rose at Carmuirs Park..

Willie Irvine seems to be getting the team into shape and will have to wait and see how the squad line up as they have another two league matches after this.

Friday 8th September 2006

SCOTT BROWN NETS BRACE AT DUNIPACE

DUNIPACE 0 BO'NESS UNITED 2

Winning away and not conceding was the main thing as Bo'ness warmed up with only 12 fit players. But two second half goals from Scott Brown maybe putting Bo'ness in winning ways.
