Important win. Keeps us tucked in the pack and not adrift at the bottom.

We made it more difficult than it should have been at the end. If we had a proven goal scorer a Kane Hester type? then we could have been out of sight before the 96 minutes were up. We badly needed this and the lads worked as a unit to get us over the line - Bonnyrigg are no great team and I think they will find it difficult to stay in this league if today is anything to go by. If we can get something from Elgin in midweek will be a bonus as they seem a bit on fire. If the team continue to graft the way they did today then we should be ok this season - it will always need hard work such is this league

Much improved performance. Weathered a bit of a Bonnyrigg storm at the start of the second half and to be honest, I couldn't see them not scoring. Came much more into it after that. Could maybe have had a second penalty too.
Referee booked virtually everyone I think. Where do we find these numpties?
A couple of wins will have our more optimistic supporters clamouring for a play off spot at the top of the league. Meanwhile back in the real world we'll need to improve just to finish 9th.
Better day today though. Be good to play Bonnyrigg every week.

A wee side note - we have the second best defence (tied with Dumbarton) in the league with 12 goals against us. Stirling albion have the best defence with 10.

Choice of 4 or 5 for MOTM, though I wouldn't disagree with sponsors' choice, but pretty much pass marks for all. Midweek journey will be a big task, though.

Looking forward to my first 'Vers game in 5 weeks tomorrow. Disappointing last couple of results following our mini-unbeaten run. However reckon we'll complete the double over Bonnyrigg at the San Siro tomorrow - 2-1 to the mighty 'Vers! Just Saying!! Excellent performance from the guys today & a richly deserved victory 😁😁👍👍⚽️⚽️

Good win for the boys. That’s the first quarter of games completed and a good time to stand back and review what has been. The odd win along with a series of “played well,hard luck” stories ain’t going to cut the mustard I’m afraid. We need to up our game. [br Gotta love your positive vibes] Bucky 🤣🤣

[br Gotta love your positive vibes] Bucky 🤣🤣 There’s some on this thread (not me) saying that this was a must win game and it’s the first week in October! All I’m saying is the players (and the manager) need to ask more of each other. I don’t think that’s negative.

Great result yesterday. Delighted for everyone at club. Man of the match was the Bonnyrigg keeper by a country mile. Onwards and upwards. Safe and successful journey to everyone travelling up to Elgin on Tuesday night. 🙏

We were very positive yesterday. Different team altogether. Bonnyrigg looked like a junior team. Too many bellies and the only tactic on show seemed to be to chop down anyone who breaks through. They won't be going anywhere quickly.
