Date – Saturday 20 September 2025
Competition – Park’s Motor Group Lowland League

Bo’ness United 1
(Armstrong 21)

Broxburn Athletic 2
(Docherty 34, Douglas 57)

Bo’ness United served up their worst Lowland League performance of the season, losing out to Broxburn Athletic by the odd goal in three. Broxburn created the best early chances including a Samual Gormley header cleared off the line. However, it was the BUs that struck first, a Jack Hodge corner beyond the far post, cut back for Jordan Armstrong to scoop over Broxburn keeper Robert Watt. Bo’ness went on to enjoy a good spell but were pegged back, the ball being cleared to the edge of the box where Jamie Dochery steered a shot finding the inside of the post.

Twelve minutes into the second half Broxburn took the lead as Errol Douglas got onto the end of a low ball to convert from close in. Following that goal Bo’ness worked hard but huffed and puffed unable to put any pressure on the Broxburn goal. In the end they never really looked like getting back. Banks o’ Dee come calling next week and Bo’ness know only a significant improvement will see them progress in the Scottish Cup.
