Tonight we travelled to Tranent for a friendly and won 4-2 in what was a very good performance .We had a number of trialists and all showed up very well  .Cameron Ross put us ahead from the penalty spot after Ross Nimmo was fouled . Tranent got back on level terms with their own penalty before Gordon Donaldson put us ahead at the break 2-1 . Greg Binnie made it 3-1 early in the second half before David Howie scored a screamer to increase the lead .Tranent cut the deficit near the end . A good work out and show what the young lads coming through our community club can do at this level .

On Thursday evening of the 20th December Broxburn Athletic will travel to Forrester’s Park Tranent for a friendly with Tranent .The game will kick off 7-30pm

Broxburn Athletic,  along with other’s, have submitted their application for SFA licensing and membership of the Association .You will notice over the next few month’s some changes that need to be in place around the Albyn Park for this to be Achieved .We ask you to be aware of these changes , some construction some subtle .You have to have a licence to play in the Lowland league and progress up the Pyramid System .There will be costs to this project and an announcement will be made soon to launch a fund raising campaign to provide the capital for this project .

Broxburn Athletic’s next official game will be at home to Camelon on Saturday the 29th of December in the Conference League “c”   with a 2-30pm kick off .We had hoped to bring the match forward to the Friday evening but due to work commitments from players with our opponents this could not be arranged .

Today’s game scheduled to be played at Stirling University eos has been postponed due to a frozen park  after an inspection this morning .

Would like to start by saying everybody at the club wishes Conor Kelly a speedy recovery from what was a dislocated arm. At the time it looked a lot worse as we waited for the ambulance ,thankfully the injury ,all though bad enough was not as bad as first feared  .He was allowed home from hospital that night and was recuperating at home with strong pain killers .We played well today but just don’t seem to get any breaks at the moment Two goals in the second half sealed the points for the home side but we should not be despondent as we did play well and coped well with the injury situation and loss of Conor .(full report on website asap )

Saturday’s kick off time has been brought forward to 1-30pm from 2-00pm due to lack of daylight and fears that the match may not finish at scheduled time . This means the bus for Perth will now leave the Albyn Park at 11.00 am
