bemoan

A few miles away, in the cafe at the city’s famed bookstore, Powell’s Books, a trio of retired friends bemoaned their beloved city’s negative image.

In it, the father, Igor Kruglov bemoaned that “ten days have passed” and yet the investigation is “being conducted by one local sheriff.”

A letter writer compared the Dodgers to Little Leaguers and bemoaned the team’s “silly” dancing and seed showers.

He said it himself afterwards, bemoaning the standard of his team's attacking game, lamenting the absence of creativity while concluding that this is "not the way Celtic play."

He is not the type to bemoan his lot publicly.
