THIS wasn't a bad day at the office, but a terrible one for everyone at Lomond United.
Right from the off the vistors where not at the races and soon found themselves 1-0 down when a long ball over the defence saw a home player stop the ball on the by-line.
His pass into the box found an unmarked forward with all the time in the world to blast the ball into the bottom corner past Derek Bushnell as the rest of the players were caught ball watching.
Soon after Rosyth missed a great chance to make it 2-0.
After a poor start, Lomond equalised. Kenny Christie and Sean Farrell combined well down the right to feed Gavin Dales.
He skipped past four defenders and curled the ball beyond the keeper for an excellent goal to make it 1-1.
The vistors were right back in the match - game on.
But instead of taking the game to Rosyth, misplaced passes, miss-timed clearances and bad marking at set pieces saw the homesters go 2-1 in front.
At a Rosyth corner, a defender on the half way line made his way towards the box unmarked. No Lomond player tracked him and when the ball fell to him at the back post he made no mistake from 12 yards.
The second half saw the vistors step up, Christie broke clean through and with everyone waiting for a goal his shot was straight at the keeper.
This was to be Lomond's only real chance.
During the second half, the players did try to get back into the game but just could not put any pressure on the home defence.
With the referee about to blow for full-time and all Lomond's players in the opposition half as they went for broke, a long ball once again saw the striker score to make it 3-1.
Thus ended Lomond United's first vist to Rosyth, a game which is best forgotten about.
