Robbie Sinclair has been transferred to Camelon after finding game time at Broxburn difficult to come by . We wish Robbie all the best with his new club and thank him for his efforts during his short spell at the club after joining at the start of the season from Edinburgh University in the the Lowland League .

We would like to thank former players Stevie Pitman, Derek McWilliams and Gary Maley for filling in a bounce game and providing opposition with Livingston development side last night after Dunbar Utd pulled out at the last minute . Broxburn took the lead through Errol Douglas with Livingston drawing level through a penalty kick . The second half started well and a good performance through out saw us get two hat tricks through Greg Binnie and Darren Downie to finish the scoring 7-1 . A worthwhile exercise to get much needed game time after bad weather etc saw us idle the past couple of weeks . We wish the Livingston lads all the best in their development and hope to see them progress in their careers .

Bitterly disappointed we did not get playing today but with standing water on the 4G surface suggested problem underneath the surface which was a danger to players . The whole 18 yard box was effected some parts worse than others . Could have been put off earlier in our opinion saving a lot of people a waste of time and expense . On behalf of Broxburn we apologise for any inconvenience this caused today and hopefully lessons have been learned going forward .

Tomorrow’s match away to Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts will have a 10am inspection . It is currently 50/50 according to the hosts and will be dependant on over night temperatures . We will inform all as soon as the decision comes through on our social media pages .

Broxburn United sports club community have made the facility available for donations to the  West Lothian Foodbank . Along with our partners we feel at this time of year it is important to make sure the community is not left wanting for anything and we are glad to do our small part in the process to make sure that the people who need will be looked after . Mid Day on Saturday is the closing time for donations . Excite sports centre just down the road will take donations from 11am to 3pm Saturday
