Well, Bonnyrigg missed a sitter, scored a penalty and upto 35 mins their keeper hadn't a save to make. They looked comfortable.

Tonight’s game has nothing to do with last Saturdays.

 

The Rose will raise their game to levels they’ll be unlikely to match again all season. Being live on the BBC can do that to a junior team.

 

Dundee last week, after being humiliated on the opening day, raised their game first 45. We weren’t at the races.

 

No two games of football are the same and it’s embarrassing, yet not surprising, reading some of the references to last weeks game on the back of tonight’s.

Must win league game for Dundee versus us.

 

The question is more about why Dundee can't play the same every game. Which suggests they are not good enough. 

Absolutely. Although I'd say it's probably the manager who isn't the right man at Dundee. They've got more than enough on paper to be a shoe in for the play-offs, but they've been shaky all season.

Highly unlikely as it was "Mick McGachey"

Bonnyrigg have done better than us in the first half. Deal with it.

That Dean Brett is one ugly ****. Correction, a bitter, ugly, Hibs ****.

 

Johnny Stewart in the centre for Bonnyrigg was ex-Hearts I'm sure. Certain he played a few games? Robbie Horne is a Jambo too IIRC?

They're not a junior team, nor have they been for a few years now.

Hearts will win the league. Signing Gary Mackay-Steven should help put losing to Dundee to bed. 

 

Not sure whether saying 'Deal with it' is fair so I won't say that directly.

Bonnyrigg first half have been better vs Dundee first half than Hearts were

We will and Dundee will win here, doesn't get away from the fact Bonnyrigg have done better first half than we did last week. Bizarre that this basic observation upsets some people.

And Cove rangers won at Alloa, are you seething about that too? Every football match is different.

 

Btw Dundee have had more shots v Bonnyrigg than they had v us after 47 mins. Who cares?

Fair comment.

 

But also then Alloa have given Dundee two hard games this season. Arguably should have won both games. Alloa also beat Hearts. Are Alloa going to win the Championship?

But Alloa beat Hearts. So did Dundee.  Pretty similar performances by Hearts.

 

You not think Dundee beating Hearts was any big deal?

Nothing against the guy, some great moments of skill for us but seeing Osman Sow tonight we absolutely mugged that team for £1million 😂

I said Bonnyrigg have done better than Hearts. That's it, and it's a more than reasonable observation.

 

Anything else is in the imagination of other posters on here.

Kinda looked (from the final camera angle) that the Milan player was unbalanced and going down before any contact; hence point taken.

Ross County back where they belong

Its true the scores are different. 

 

But comparing the games isn't at all reasonable. Dundee with their limitations cannot be expected to play as well as they did against Hearts every game. And Bonnyrigg are playing in a competition they could barely have dreamed about a few years ago.

 

My first thought was why not go to the match thread if you want to talk about a different game. Then the rest of us could ignore it.

Nah, not quite; but they will be if that's their position come the end of the season. More so if the same happens next season.

20 minutes to see out for the Rosey Posey

 

They look out on their feet though

It's a question of motivation and why Greavsie frequently mentioned to Saint "its a funny old game "

Bonnyrigg hanging on, got away with that penalty shout.
