Was asked when the last 0-0 game was at the Albyn Park involving Broxburn Athletic in an official match and it was over five and a half years ago when Broxburn Athletic drew at home with Craigroyston on Tuesday evening the 31st of July 2018 in our second game ever under the banner of the East Of Scotland League .

Broxburn Athletic’s Man of The Match against Haddington Athletic was Greg Page and was nominated by match sponsor John Myles . Greg is sponsored by Ian Sloan ,Joe Chapman and Broxburn Tiling and Plastering . Greg mustered the defence and made sure we kept a clean sheet to extend our lead at the top of the league .

Today’s game at Dundonald has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch .

Gary Brass was named as, Rock Breakers, man of the match after  the victory at Bo’ness Athletic. Gary’s injury time winner was his   fiftieth goal for the club and is pictured receiving his award and also a cash award from the supporter’s arranged by Andrew Brash. Gary is sponsored by Smart Tech Auto who cover his first and second strip and Graeme king who sponsor’s his Third kit.
