Alexander Miller has been picked on the stand by list for Scotland juniors for the up and coming Quadrangular trophy in October .There will be warm up games and We congratulate Zander for this achievement . There have all ready been a couple of call off’s from the squad so he may be promoted sooner to the full squad watch this space and good luck .

Not the start of a four game home run we wanted or expected ,with respect to our visitors today . Going 1 down in the first minute then turning it around and going in at half time 3-1 up and coasting it beggars belief how the players on the park managed to chuck the tie away in the fashion we did today .You cant just turn your form on one week and hope it is there the next it must be consistent and today was way below par as bad a result as I would have expected today .Fair play to Oakley we wish them well for the rest of the season ,but no superleague side should loose to a side struggling in the league two levels below them at home .

A superb display from “THE BURN ” today gave us three well deserved points at Sauchie .From the first minute Nicholas Locke header till the last minute strike from Zander Murray ,we outplayed our hosts .Those two goals sandwiched a double from Zander Miller and strike from Kieran Anderson .It could have been even more emphatic had the hosts keeper not been in inspired form saving them from even worse score line .

Not a good day to try play football with a strong wind blowing down the park it was proving difficult for both sides to get in to any rhythm . Going down 1-0 then getting into a 2-1 lead and looking good for the three points it was hard to take for a throw and a back heeler to give Kennoway Star Hearts a share of the points .Need to go and get three points next week at Sauchie .An Anderson free kick into the top corner and Miller goal were the scorers for the burn today

A 1-0 win against Linlithgow rose was just deserved .After a drab first half, the game picked up the second half and Broxburn just shaded it and got their rewards with a late goal from Alexander Miller .Usual complaints about the park after a defeat from a club had lot of respect for but after match comments were unwarranted .On the Night the visitors through work and injury problems could not, like ourselves, put out a full strength side .To start blaming the surface after being down the previous day to try and book a regular training spot on the park is quite hypocritical .Accept it for what it was the better team won on the night and move on .
