Stag Nation

Have you actually read the requirement? "The club shall nominate a Board / Committee member who has lead responsibility for equality in the club. The club shall publish a public commitment to addressing inequalities and preventing discrimination. This should be published, as a minimum, on the club website. The club shall establish and implement a policy for equality, which shall include provisions dealing with harassment and unfair treatment. This policy shall be communicated throughout the organisation." So, they need to nominate one individual, and do a bit of cutting and pasting of other folks' policies. Hardly a nightmare, is it? Maybe a couple of hours work? Also, it's the same requirement for entry level, so they should already have done it.

I love that "has added considerable toughness to the defence". I suspect they mean "thug".

Buckie have won the HL

Are you sure? They have this dreadful thing called the EU, and for most of its members the Schengen agreement. means no border controls. I can't remember the last time I saw any passport or customs checks within Western Europe.

Don't blame the fixture guy - he only works within what the rules dictate. If the clubs want the final to have a clear day, they just need to vote for it.

So, 19 extra games for the finalists. That should put paid to the close season ...

When I was a lad, it was the Station “refreshment rooms”, aka “the Station” or “the Refresh”. It was licensed, at a time when there were only four proper pubs in town, and it was popular with under-age drinkers. Allegedly. God knows why it was renamed the Mallard, after a locomotive that never came anywhere near Dingwall AFAIK.

I was there in 1966. We can do it again! Oh hang on, we lost ...

Too late now, but did the board actually have the power to disband the league without a vote of the members? I doubt it. Whether they had the power or not, anyone disagreeing (or even just wanting an open debate) could have called an EGM.

Read his post again. He didn't say Talbot had anything to do with the OO.

1. Exactly what geographical 'region' would the LL cover? How would relegation from or promotion to LL work? 2. Where do you get the "crazy amounts of money on transport in tier 5" from? I've heard no complaints from LL clubs, and the HL have been managing happily with much greater distances since God was a boy.

Careful. If there were nothing to prevent that, then the OF could get their 'colts' into the SPFL as Govan United, or whatever. Luckily, the SFA Article 13 (Dual Interests in Clubs) seems to close that particular door.

As had Arbroath.

Easy. Some spiv buys the assets, starts a new club called "The" Edinburgh City, applies for the vacant place and gets in on the nod.
