Loch Ness haven't put up an amateur team this summer, not sure if they have any connection with Gellions FC though, where they originated.

Quite surprised there was no resignations at last nights AGM,let’s face it our squad is weaker than last season,Kirk is still clueless tactically,we really haven’t improved over the 3 seasons in the Highland League.Time for someone else to have a go.

Hospitality was a bit of a disappointment yesterday,the feel good factor from last year has gone.
Thought this new board was meant to be the start of something new,not looking likely now,heard quite a few players will be gone at the end of the season if and when we don’t get promoted also a lot of the players not happy since Price came in.The board made the appointment so should come out and admit they made the wrong appointment the man is a muppet his style of football has no identity his tactics are shite.
Some of the players aren’t really bothered about the club which stems from the top,last week up at the Broch a few laughing with one another after a shambles of a game.Crowds have dwindle this season instead of increasing because Price has made this team shite.
Cant see us getting back into the SPFL with Price in charge,if we fail he should be sacked.

Peebles went junior in 1960s, returned in 1970s, but could not rejoin SFA as ground criteria had long since tightened since they first joined decades earlier. Aberdeen Uni forgot to renew their membership in 1986 apparently.
No licence renewal has been refused since scheme began c2010 IIRC... not 'newco' Rangers in 2012, or venue-less Cove in 2016, or Wigtown in 2017 who scratched from cup/mothballed/etc.Is there any word of the SFA opening up for new licence applications?

I assume Brechin could reach bronze licence standards in short order - how are Buckie and Fraserburgh placed?
I doubt they'd have much trouble, but there's the possibility of Buckie using it as an excuse to avoid going up, although I've heard their attitudes may have changed recently.

Have been to the Allianz Arena 4 times, with the number of extra trains that get put on on gamedays the extra waiting is nothing massive.
Says a "decent walk" from the U-bahn station, 20 minutes?

Buckie haven't won on a Saturday since February 17th. True story..
If they hadn't blown it against Clach, Lossie. Wick and Vale in recent weeks they'd be red hot favourites, we're the real heroes here!

I'm at the Clach v Locos game and it's absolutely fucking it down. A decent game so far despite this.
I wimped out before half time, not a bad game as you say but I wasn't in the mood and we've got the same game on Saturday.

A problem for the short sellers in Truth Social is they won't make a profit till it drops to $20, and because of that there's very little trading going on to get it down there.

Keith v Brechin City is off.
All eyes on Buckie Thistle as they attempt to close the gap to three points.

@scottsdad and his equally malingering pal, The Prof, are the gold standard here.
Scottsdad's a genius, pretends to be a workaholic so everyone tells him to take it easy.

A colleague of mine (Aberdonian) takes his dirty washing out to the rigs to save him running a wash at home.
I'd say "spare a thought for the security bag searchers at the heliport", but that would only encourage him (and many others).
Netanyahu and his missus used to take at least 2 full suitcases of dirty clothes each when they got invited to stay at the Whitehouse so they could get everything washed and nicely pressed by the staff. Apparently they took 11 suitcases for a one night stay in Portugal.

Sorry for being thick but why do people consider Fraserburgh favourites when Brechin have three points and a (slightly) better GD? I presume the combination of momentum from the 4-2 the other week and the fact that playing Strathspey twice is a given six points and considerable +GD?
I think it's just Buckie and Brechin stumbling just as Fraserburgh are getting unbeatable. I'd still put Brechin as favourites though.

Shocking seasons for Clach and Forres, Forres actually bodied Clach 4-1 about a month ago, which shows how poor a side Clach are. This is undoubtedly their worst squad for as long as I can remember, possibly ever.
Clach don't bother getting out of bed for minnows like Forres and Grantown FC.
Anyway, on an end of season roll..

Golspie certainly aren't interested in promotion, nice bit of income being able to rent out their ground to Brora this season though.

I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
Three young guys part of a burglary gang were being chased by gardai and died in a fireball driving into a truck on the wrong side of a dual carriageway.
Apparently the chase is meant to be called off if this happens but the garda kept going.
Their funerals were arranged by a directors who specialise in scumbag sendoffs. The videos are something else.

The memorials that their families had left at the site have been vandalised multiple times.

Shares in Truth Social have dropped to mid thirties from a peak of 79 dollars. If they drop below £17.50 for one day between now and April 26th, Trump loses out on a 36 million share bonus from an "earnout" provision, here's hoping.

Reminder that Nobel disease is a thing
I'm convinced.
QuoteKary Mullis won the 1993 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for development of the polymerase chain reaction. Mullis disagreed with the scientifically accepted view that AIDS is caused by HIV, claiming that the virus is barely detectable in people with the disease. He also expressed doubt in the evidence for human-caused climate change. In his autobiography, Mullis professed a belief in astrology and wrote about an encounter with a fluorescent, talking raccoon that he suggested might have been an extraterrestrial alien.

Did you get the Bahn25 trial card?
Looks worth it just for that return journey if he hasn't, the alternatives to a fast train sound horrible.

I just bought the DB pass but unfortunately it would not let me buy one in mates name and he is on holiday with sh!tty Internet connection so have to wait until he gets home.
It looks like we will only need a train to Cologne from Stuttgart and returning to Stuttgart next day. But prices for us two on train are mental.
A Flixbus Stuttgart-Munich is only £16 with your seat booked!
So if anybody has two seats going Stuttgart-Cologne and either returning after game or next day we would be interested. DM me.if
What kind of DB pass have you got? I did see you can get Flix tickets from Stuttgart airport to Cologne airport and back for a reasonable price, don't know what getting to and from the airports is like and the ones I saw were very early in the morning. Also some from Kornwestheim near Stuttgart. Don't know if splitting train tickets would be cheaper, say Stuttgart -Frankfurt-Cologne, or if you could do the whole journey by connecting regional trains. I see there are still loads of the match ticket holders discounted tickets going, maybe worth waiting to see if the Fans Pass is actually checked or if you could get away with a screenshot.

I'd far sooner just pay for beer in a beer garden with a big outside telly, pubs that have one will rake it in.

Highland Amateur Cup 2024
in North Pyramid

Thinking of following Maryburgh home and away as far as they go. A wee trip to Germany might interfere though..
