WHU(Exeter) 2:21 Tue Apr 16 | It’s almost impossible to choose. |
Leonard Hatred1:00 Tue Apr 16 | 𝐂𝐨𝐰𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐅𝐂 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭 On Saturday evening, following the 2-1 win over Gretna 2008, was the Cowdenbeath FC Player of the Year event. The winners were as follows : 𝐀𝐧𝐝𝐲 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐛𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐲 - When lifelong Cowden fan Andy Forbes passed away back in 2023, his family wished to honour his memory by establishing an annual award for Cowdenbeath FC. It was agreed that the destination of the Andy Forbes Player of the Year trophy would be decided each year by some of our youngest supporters - the Central Park ball boys and girls. This year they voted and confirmed that the inaugural winner of the Andy Forbes trophy was Zac Butterworth. 𝐂𝐨𝐰𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐅𝐂 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬' 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫 - Amongst footballers an award which often carries the highest prestige is the Players' Player of the Year - to be honoured by your peers and given this accolade is a real distinction. There were a number of players in the running and in 3rd place in the poll was midfield dynamo Matty MacDonald. The 2nd place position went to wing wizard Zac Butterworth. And ultimately, the honour of being named Cowdenbeath FC's Players' Player of the Year for 2023/24 goes to tireless skipper Robbie McNab. 𝐂𝐨𝐰𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐅𝐂 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫 - Finally, we turn to the Cowdenbeath FC Player of the Year trophy as voted for by the club's supporters. This honour was first bestowed 61 years ago back in 1963 and it remains the premier award of Cowdenbeath FC and its fans. There was actually a tie for second place in the vote and thus silver medal position was shared between Matty MacDonald and Zac Butterworth who each received 22% of the votes cast. The winner though picked up 38% of the votes. Now past winners of this award include the likes of Andy Kinnell, Eric Archibald, Joe Mbu and Craig Barr - the common denominator of course being that they were all leaders out on the pitch and inspirational captains. Following in their footsteps at Central Park is a man who ticks the very same boxes. In recent years Craig Barr (twice) and Sam Newman both did the double by winning both the Player of the Year and Players' Player of the Year trophies in the same season - 2023/24 sees that trend repeated with club captain Robbie McNab now acclaimed as Cowdenbeath FC's Player of the Year. |
WHU(Exeter) 1:03 Sun Apr 14 | 15th last season Len. Let’s take the positives and paint the town blue. Especially if top 10 becomes sealed. |
Leonard Hatred1:24 Sun Apr 14 | A damp squib of a season, if we're honest. |
Leonard Hatred1:22 Sun Apr 14 | Cowdenbeath 2-1 Gretna 2008 Cowdenbeath came from behind to win their final home game of the 2023/24 season. Gretna 2008 went ahead in the 39th minute through Liam Short and took the narrow advantage with them into the break. Zac Butterworth equalised for The Blue Brazil in the 66th minute before a stunning hit from captain Robbie McNab in the 76th minute put the home side in front. The win was only the third league victory at Central Park this season but sees Stevie Crawford's side climb to 10th. TEAM : Hepburn, A MacDonald, Rodden, McNab, Jordan, Donald, Butterworth, McLaughlin (G MacPherson), Healy, M McDonald, Docherty (Trialist C) SUBS NOT USED : Berry, Trialist A, Trialist B, E MacPherson, Denham NEXT UP : We travel to Alliance Park to take on Caledonian Braves in the final Lowland League game of the season. |
WHU(Exeter) 8:24 Sat Apr 13 | Up to tenth! But let’s keep the Frangelico on ice. A lot could still happen. |
WHU(Exeter) 7:58 Sat Apr 13 | Keep it tight |
WHU(Exeter) 7:47 Sat Apr 13 | 2~1 !!!,,!!2 |
WHU(Exeter) 7:46 Sat Apr 13 | Hang your heads in shame East Fife. |
WHU(Exeter) 7:45 Sat Apr 13 | 1~1 LETS DO THIS!!!!!! |
WHU(Exeter) 6:56 Sat Apr 13 | FFS!!!…1~0 down at home against the team second bottom in the league. KEEP THE FAITH |
WHU(Exeter) 6:21 Sat Apr 13 | I fancy a 6~0 this afternoon. |
WHU(Exeter) 3:23 Sun Apr 7 | Two games left, just have to win them and hope that Albion Rovers and/or Civil Service Strollers drop points, in the business end of the season. Bonnyrigg getting relegated would be the icing on the cake. |
Iron Duke1:19 Sun Apr 7 | Still time to update my CV then. Yesterday, Cowdenbeath lost 4-2 at Cumbernauld after being 2-0 up at half time, as the season peters out. More importantly, arch-nemesis Bonnyrigg Rose conceded an injury time equaliser. Only one point separates the bottom three, after Clyde scored an injury time winner against fellow strugglers Stranraer. |
Leonard Hatred1:07 Sun Apr 7 | 𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐀𝐆𝐄𝐑 𝐕𝐀𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐘 - 𝐂𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 The closing date for applications for the vacant manager's post at Central Park has been set as 12 noon on Monday 8th April. |
Mike Oxsaw 11:08 Sat Mar 30 | Linlithgow Rose 0 Cowdenbeath 1 FT Docherty (9' minutes) No wonder the f*cking site crashed. |
WHU(Exeter) 1:23 Sat Mar 30 | Bonnyrigg are away to Stranraer today. A real SIX POINTER at the bottom of the 2nd Division. |
Leonard Hatred11:43 Fri Mar 29 | I wonder what sort of salary a Coo manager would receive? 🤔 |
WHU(Exeter) 7:23 Fri Mar 29 | Why the f*cking hell does auto-spell-correct, or whatever it’s called, ‘correct’ the word “day” to “Adam”. DOES NOTHING IN THIS COUNTRY f*ckING WORK ANYMORE Happy Easter to all in the COO DIASPORA |
WHU(Exeter) 7:19 Fri Mar 29 | Stevie Crawford and Jason Dair have taken over the helm until the end of the season. Hot off pie and bovril. (Well, Tuesday anyway, I don’t read it EVERY Adam) The next few weeks will be interesting. There’s a Bonnyrigg fan giving it the big one on there. Who the f*ck do they think they are? |
