What are the chances of North Lanarkshire's finest bouncing straight back into League 2?
In my mind, Tranent will win it,
Rovers upper-midtable

Clyde have signed Josh McCulloch from Hibs. Hard to find anything online about him but I did see he was on loan at you for a spell last year. Any clues on what we can expect?
Nope, he had a handful of sub apperances though didn't do anything wrong,
He could only train with the team for 45 mins on a Tuesday and couldn't attend Thursday training, so sandy Clark hardly seen him so didn't want to play him ahead of guys who were there every week
Brian Reid had signed him without ever seeing him play, or know who he was,
Might be a star, for the moment we couldn't tell you

It is the social club who own the rights to the name not the football club.
They are 2 seperate entities social club are the only part of the original Edinburgh City left. Whereas the football club now were originally an amateur team called Postal United formed in the 60's who were granted permission to use the name in the 80's
Last year there was a falling out and the social club told the football club to stop using the name, I think the social club were getting nothing from the football club

Yeah heard this yesterday on Clyde midweek scoreboard that’s FC Edinburgh changing back to Edinburgh City FC
Not checked yet but is this true? Or has it happened a while ago and I’m as usual late hearing the news?
The new chairman announced it a few weeks back, did they fall back in with the social club?

What's the current situation with Bevan?
Thought someone might have went and got him by now.
Nothing he's doing pre-season,
Hes contracted till end of this season,
Scored 9 goals in 19 games since signing in January,
I suspect he could score a barrel load this season

Is it really that big a jump to the LL from WOSFL Premier League? Tranent done very well last season after coming in and it was a shock when they beat Darvel in the playoff.
I think the point is more, Darvel finished 3rd this season,
After they beat Aberdeen in the Scottish they had an almighty collapse

Bit pointless giving gavin the boot now should of been a bit earlier but then the boards to blame aswell I think no ambition and no quality brought in this season once the downward spiral started I’d of thought they might of tried something else different then before the reality of highland league football again plus I heard rumours of the players bickering/fighting at the end of today but might not be true
Hester and McHardy spent a good 5 minute spell shouting and swearing at each other before the ref finally split them up,
There are also reports of a bit of a rammy between the players as they were getting on the bus after the game a bit of fisticuffs

Dumbarton have got off lightly v rovers 3 times this season
Reilly will be in premiership/championship next year, my best bet would be Dundee or Kilmarnock
Not only is Bevan only 18, I'm pretty sure he only turned 18 at the start of January, his physical size for a boy of that age is impressive alone
Also just to note, this is Rovers first win in Dumbarton since 2001, the first time Rovers visited the rock,
Currently in Budapest with work and have now missed my third game this season while away on different work jollies, 1-0 win v Stranrear, 4-0 win v Stranraer, and now 5-1 win v Dumbarton.
I may not come back home

I see Bonnyrigg have refused to agree to change the matchday v Albion Rovers to avoid a clash with the Scotland v Cyprus game.
Scotland v Cyprus will kick off at 14.00 at Hampden with Rovers v Rose kicking off at 3 meaning it's guaranteed to be a much smaller crowd than normal for one of the biggest games of the season

A wet day was had by all
Rovers free kick for the goal was a cracker recommend everyone search on twitter for it

Yes, been involved in 20 goals in 21 league games, scoring 13 assisting 7
Prone to throwing a tantrum but a good young player,
Dundee have been watching him for a while along with kilmarnock and Queens park, he has been training with Killie regularly over the last couple months
Gordon Strachan was at the game at the weekend watching him,
I believe he might have been told if he is sold in January he will be back on loan till the end of the season
