Broxburn created the first chance on five minutes when Ross Nimmo got down the right and crossed into the box where Dean Shaw punched off the head of Conor Kelly to clear the danger . It was going to be a dour battle .Alexander Miller saw a shot blocked by the defence on 15 minutes . Ross Cameron tried a speculative shot from thirty five yards out that sailed well over the bar . Good play from the visitors half way through the half on the edge of the penalty box finished when Alan Docherty fired a shot that was easily saved by Wallace in the home goals . Nimmo was denied just after the half hour mark by good defending . On 34 minutes the closest chance came when Miller tried to flick it past Shaw but the keeper saved well . A few minutes later the striker saw a shot blocked and cleared from danger . Camelon created a chance with six minutes remaining of the half but this time Docherty shot wildly over the bar . The last and closest effort came in the dying minutes off the half when a corner came into the box and Miller’s effort was cleared off the line and away from the area .
All watching the game were hoping for better fare in the second half and it was the home side who almost scored in the opening minutes when Nicholas Locke made room for a shot but his effort went over the bar . Connor Wallace saved at the feet of Ryan Kane on fifty minutes at the expense of a corner . two minutes later Docherty ran into the box from the left and Wallace blocked his effort at his near post .The corner came in and Donald Morrison headed wide of the right upright . A long ball over the defence for Miller was met on the edge of his box by Shaw . An hour gone and the quality was not getting any better when a ball in from the left was just too high for the attacking Ross Cameron . The goal came after 64 minutes when ROSS CAMERON got the ball in the middle of the box and went slightly wide right before turning and rolling the ball past Wallace from an angle . Kieran Anderson saw an effort from 25 yards out wide left go just wide of the left post .The same player saw the sane result on the 80 minute mark . Jack Beasley sent a good long ball into the box with six minutes remaining but there were not takers of the chance created . With four minutes left on the clock an opportunity to get on level terms when Miller knocked a ball forward to Locke who was then brought down in the box and the home side were rewarded a penalty . Conor Kelly stepped up and his tame shot was saved directly at him by Dean Shaw . It was not to be our day we know we can and must do better .With no game until a week on Tuesday against Preston Athletic in the Football Nations Cup ,it will give time for all the niggling knocks and players coming back from injury to fully recover .The Preston Athletic match is on Tuesday the 30th of October with a 7-30pm kick off .

In a very tactical match the first chance came after 14 minutes when a ball into the box was met by Christopher Townsley who put Conor Kelly through but his shot came off the bar and over .Three minutes the deadlock was broken when a Kelly shot was only parried by Calum Reid in the visitors goal and GORDON DONALDSON was on hand to lob the ball over the keeper into the net . A. minute later it was 2-0 when the visiting defence was put under pressure by Greg Binnie and forced a pass back to his keeper who miss hit it into the path of ROSS NIMMO in the middle of the box and he had the simplest task to find the back of the net . Ross Nimmo put a good ball into the box on 26 minutes but it was cleared by the defence . With six minutes left of the half Conor Kelly did well to get to the bye line before finding Nimmo who in turn set up Binnie , but the later sent his shot over the bar . A corner to the home side with two minutes left was met by the head of Shaun Harrison but it went wide right .
Broxburn had an opportunity to increase their lead five minutes into the second half when Conor Kelly was brought down in the box and when he stepped up to take the penalty award Calum Reid saved and his defence got the danger cleared . Ross Nimmo made good room coming in from the right for a shot but it went over the bar . A dangerous ball into the box was cleared over the bar by Christopher Townsley . On 61 minutes Binnie made a good run into the box but his cross was cut out for a corner . Shaun Harrison had two chances from successive corners his first was deflected past the target and his second was a free header that sailed over the bar . The points were sealed on 71 minutes when Ross Nimmo played a great ball through to CONOR KELLY who went past the keeper before lobbing the ball goal wards and despite desperate defending the ball found the net . Greg Binnie had a header on 73 minutes that went safely into Reid’s arms . Heriot Watt got a consolation goal on 74 minutes when a corner into the box was cleared out right but still in the box when Michael Linton clumsily challenged the forward giving the visitors a penalty which Captain AIDAN QUINN made no mistake from the 12 yard mark . Justin Hogg had a good ball across the box cut out by Connor Wallace . With time running down Nicholas Locke turned and shot forcing a great save from Reid . Another three points in the bag see’s us keep our top spot .With three cup ties coming up only time will tell if we are top by the end off the month .Tough cup ties start next week away to Jeanfield Swifts in the South Challenge cup .

The opening goal came after 11 minutes when SCOTT RICHARDS got the ball on the left hand side of the box and played a ball across the box which deceived everyone and found the far bottom corner of the net . A minute later the scoreline was doubled when Richards floated a ball into the heart of the penalty area where GREG BINNIE was totally unmarked and he guided his header into the top left hand corner of the net . Scott Richards should have scored a minute later but saw his effort saved . On fifteen minutes Craig Scott saw an effort well saved . It was Nicholas Locke’s turn a minute later to be denied by Adam Shaw in the visitors goal . The third goal did come half way through the half when Binnie got the ball on the right of the box and laid it off to CRAIG SCOTT just inside the box and he guided it into the far left bottom corner . Locke set up Connor Kelly on 28 minutes when he put the striker in on goal but the defender cleared for a corner .

Craig Scott had another shot from 20 yards out sail over the bar on 65 minutes . Greg Binnie saw a shot go wide right of the target on 73 minutes . Kelly thought he had got the elusive goal but his attempt was blocked and cleared . A minute later Binnie was disappointed when a ball in from the left found him in front of goals but he turned the ball wide left from six yards out . Two chances in the last few minutes when balls into the box seemed to bounce of everybody and block the goal all though afterwards the visiting keeper did confess he clawed a ball from over the line back into play that the officials did not pick up on . .Good performance first half bit disappointing the second half but we move on to Saturdays home game against Heriot Watt University with a 2-30pm kick off .

Three minutes later Ross Nimmo sent in a dangerous ball to the six yard box but the visiting defence cleared .

The second half started as the first half finished with Donaldson seeing an effort go just wide left . Donaldson again was at the back post from a corner but his effort was cleared on 51 minutes . A minute later Kelly set up Locke who turned and shot just over . With 54 minutes gone Jonni Turner passed to Beasley on the edge of the box and his lob over the defence found Connor Kelly but the striker fired high and wide .

Kelly turned and shot over on 72 minutes before ROSS NIMMO completed his hat trick on 84 minutes when again he received a ball out left and ran in on goals to lift the ball over the keeper into the top right hand corner .Kelly could have added to the scoring but just failed to control the ball and the chance was gone . A comprehensive win of which there were a few today ,but we will have to be at our best against much stronger opposition next week in Perth against Jeanfield Swifts in the Alec Jack cup second round a much tougher game expected .

Broxburn started in determined mood and Alexander Miller created the first chance in 3 minutes when he turned the defence and shot but his shot was week and the keeper saved easily . On 15 minutes a ball into the home box caused problems and after a few attempts the ball was eventually cleared fro the danger area .Three minutes later Cameron Mitchell made room for himself before firing a shot wide left from the right hand side of the box . Half way through the half a long ball saw Ross Nimmo in with a chance but his first time shot went high and wide . A minute later Miller was through on goal but shot straight at the keeper . With 27 minutes on the clock a long ball so the home defence static and Robbie Ross was given a great opportunity but he snatched his shot wide left of the target Miller got the better of the defender on the half hour mark but his shot was right at the keeper . Controversy erupted in 33 minutes when Alexander Miller beat the keeper and his shot appeared to hit the roof of the net before hitting the ground and spinning out .The stand side assistant initially started to run to the half way but then stopped and play continued with no goal being given . With five minutes left of the half a good one two between Miller and Nimmo with the latter’s shot saved .Craig scot saw a great shot saved for a corner which Shaun Harrison sent a header goalward but it was blocked and cleared .
The second half started the way the first half had finished with Broxburn on the attack .Nimmo picked up a great cross field ball from Scott but the wingers ball in was poor . Miller set Nathan Donnelly-Kay up on 56 minutes but his shot was straight at the keeper . Just after the hour mark Harrison saw a header from a corner go just over the bar .A minute later a Scott free kick was met by the head of Christopher Townsley but the big defender’s header was saved .Miller was through on goal from a long ball over the top but Stuart Burnside continued to frustrate the home side with another fine save With 75 minutes gone Donaldson set up Craig Scott but the midfielder’s shot was blocked and cleared .Turner set Miller up on 78 minutes but Burnside saved well yet again . From the corner Scott saw his header crash of the bar and away from danger .It was Craig Scott who was to be frustrated by Burnside with five minutes remaining with a tremendous save .Mark Hendrie sent a free kick just over the bar on 88 minutes which they won during a counter attack . Good play set up Scott Richards and he sent his shot over the bar when on another occasion he would have been expected to hit the target . A corner in injury time was met by Shaun Harrison but Burnside kept up his inspired goalkeeping by saving well ..With time running out Burnside again saved his side this time from a Miller shot which he somehow managed to tip over the bar. A frustrating night for the home side with Newtongrage Star away on Saturday to see if we can get the shooting boots back on and win the match to qualify for the first round proper of the League cup .

Dundonald started the stronger probing the home defence early on . In 3 minutes a throw in to Stuart Walton was then squared across the box but Connor Wallace cut out the danger . Alexander Miller had a great opportunity to open the scoring in the 4th minute when Greg Binnie set him up on the right hand side of the box and he turned the defender before curling a shot just wide of the right hand post . With ten minutes gone the visitors created a chance but Wallace saved and Gillen cleared the danger for a throw in . The opening goal came in 14 minutes when Jonni Turner fouled McKenzie in the box and ARCHIE CAMPBELL scored from the spot to put his side in front . On 17 minutes a free kick in from the right was met by the head of Calum Smith but his header went just wide of the right up right . Just before the half hour mark a ball squared to Gordon Donaldson so the defender 20 yards out but his shot went wide right . Chance of the game came three minutes later when Greg Binnie squared the ball across the box to Craig Scott and with everybody expecting the net to bulge Craig saw his shot saved by James Lennox in the visitors goals . On 33 minutes a corner by Turner in from the right saw the ball break back out to him and his shot wizzed through the box and past the left hand side post . With six minutes left Greg Binnie was sent through but was thwarted by a great tackle just inside the box by Colin Wilson .
The second half started as the first half did with Dundonald on the attack and a minute into the half a ball down the right was cut back to Calum Smith but the striker saw his effort saved . At the other end two minutes later Miller saw an attempt easily saved . On 52 minutes Archie Campbell got on the end of a ball played in from the right but saw his effort fly across the box and wide off the goal . Smith made a great pass to Jason Penman but the latter’s shot was saved comfortably by Wallace . Miller saw his shot when one on one with Lennox saved and the striker could not get the loose ball goal ward . It was Miller again who was sent through the visiting defence but this time he lost his footing at the vital moment and the ball ran through to the keeper on65 minutes .Michael Linton was booked for a foul five yards outside his own box and central but the free kick was crashed off the bar and as Gordon Donaldson broke away he was cynically fouled by Moffat who was carded for his trouble . The equaliser came with 15 minutes reaming when Miller was brought down outside the box and right .JONNI TURNER stepped up and curled a ball around the wall into the far left bottom corner . ALEXANDER MILLER got what ended up being the winner three minutes later when Scott Richards played him through beating the offside trap and firing into the net . A satisfactory result to start the season and we now move on to Tuesday night against Craigroyston with a run developing that I am sure the squad will want to preserve .

Broxburn opened the scoring on 7 minutes when Alexander Murray got down the left rounded the defender before crossing to ALEXANDER MILLER to score the goal that won him the top goalscorer award for season 2017/18 .Dundonald equalised on 12 minutes when a free kick out wide left was struck towards goal it looked like Donoghue would gather easily but he misjudged the flight of the ball and it went over him into the net from BARRY SIBANDA . On 15 minutes a good run down the right was followed by a cross into the box that Sibanda got his head to but couldn’t direct it goal ward .The big striker was causing the home defence all sorts of trouble and had an effort cleared of the line on 19 minutes .He did get his second to put his side in front when a corner in from the right landed at the back post BARRY SIBANDA was there to squeeze the ball past two defender’s and the goalkeeper on twenty minutes . Half way through the half a ball in from the right was met by the head of Crag Wedderburn who sent his header over the bar . Two minutes later at the other end Ross Nimmo was set up but hit his shot past the right hand post . Half an hour gone and Gordon Donaldson put a great ball into Miller who took a touch past the defender before shooting wide right . Nimmo won the ball in the middle of his opponents half and laid the ball off to Anderson on the right hand side but his shot was just wid of the right hand side upright . On 37 minutes the Broxburn box was like a pin ball machine but the home defence cleared the ball after the scare and several chances to increase the visitors lead went a begging . A big call by the referee changed the dynamics of the game when Chris Townsley went out left to challenge the Dundonald winger they ran into each other but the referee sent Chris off for apparently stopping a goal scoring opportunity . Dundonald made it 3-1 just on the half time whistle when ROSS DRUMMOND was allowed to run through he opposition half before cutting inside and scoring from the edge of the box .
Miller and Anderson could have got on the end of a through ball two minutes into the second half but the ball ran through to the keeper who had come off his line to gather . Kieran Anderson created a chance for himself on fifty minutes but shot just wide left of the target . Alexander miller tried to lob the keeper from just inside the opposition half but it came of the far left post and bounced straight into the arms of the grateful James Lennox .Broxburn did get into the game on 56 minutes when KIERAN ANDERSON got down the right hand side of the box before giving Lennox no chance . Dundonald restored their two goal advantage when a free kick was awarded 22 yards out centre of goals and BARRY SIBANDA shot home passed Donoghue for his hat trick . On 69 minutes there was strong claims for a penalty when Alexander Miller looked to have been pulled down but the referee was having nothing to do with it .A minute later the ball broke to Ross Nimmo who had the keeper to beat out on the right but the keeper did well turning the effort for a corner . Broxburn’s ten men again got within touching distance when a corner in from the right was met by NICHOLAS LOCKE who’s powerful header flew into the net . With 82 minutes on the clock a corner came in from the left and from a yard out BARRY SIBANDA scored his fourth and Dundonalds fifth with a header .Alexander Miller received a good pass from midfield from Scott Richards but his attempted lob this time went over the bar . With two minutes remaining Nicholas Locke was ordered off for a second yellow card received for a challenge twenty five yards out wide right . Not the best way to sign off the season with a defeat but time to reflect and hopefully move on to better things next season . Thanks for all your support this season and lets hope we can do something next season no matter where we might be playing our football .
