Well done the Blue Brazil.
Fully deserved result.
Looks like you 'll be in a play off but with the energy & skills we saw today I think u have a very good chance of surviving.
Watched Bonnybridge against Gretna no too impressed a bit immobile.
Not a clue about either the Broch or Buckie - on form decent sides
That would have been some occasion watching Gretna play Bonnybridge.

So the last home League for this season has gone and I must say we have been well entertained at NDP, with many good performances,results and goals. Shire did give us a tough match yesterday and deserved their point after the 90mins. It was getting to squeaky bum time when we got the late equaliser. A great sight to see the LL trophy presented after the match.
Well done The Rose and all associated behind the scenes. Momentum moves on and upward for the next few weeks.

So another Saturday , yes it is Saturday, but the Saturday the hard work of the last few years bears more fruit with the presentation of the Lowland League trophy. Overall winning the League has been deserved. It will be a day to remember and only correct that the trophy is presented in front of our own fans.
We have always had tough games against the Shire with The Rose having the better of the contests with the exception of one due to a “dodgy ref” It’s been refreshing that we have kept the momentum up since winning the League at Berwick in preparation for the bigger game to come in the next few weeks. Looking forward to it.C’mon The Rose

Interesting to note that the clubs named so far who either voted against or abstained are ex juniors and ex SPFL.
I think they come in to the category of “Real Clubs “ as compared to the diddy clubs.

Hearing something is in the works to f**k over the lowland league, exciting times ahead.
Hope that is the case,, but will clubs, individuals put their name to any proposals?
We know that Bonnyrigg, Bo’ness, East Stirlingshire voted against the proposal for guest clubs in the LL. Berwick abstained. I have not seen any mention of the 4th(good boy) club that voted against the proposal? Anybody know?C’mon The Rose

What a mess. Where do you draw the line? If Hearts get in then any of the other Premiership clubs have a claim to submit their colts. Eventually you’ll just end up with a reserves league with lowland league jobbers in them.
Would be great if a new league could be formed at tier 5 somehow and the lowland league totally left behind. As well as ‘the 4’ there are enough clubs from other leagues to make it happen. It would be a league formed with the right intentions and with sporting integrity at its heart. Perhaps a simple 10 league team with 3 teams from WoSL, 2 from EoSL and 1 from SoSL as an example.I must admit I like the idea you mention in para 2. As you say form a league with the right intentions and integrity, and forget all the diddy clubs who cuddle up to the idea of Colts teams in the League.

Well I have waited a while to form my response because I am spitting fire at the decision from the meeting last night. Once again The Rose stuck by their principles and remained consistent with their vote, shame on the 3 who changed their mind and credit East Stirlingshire for changing theirs after saying last year it was for 1 season only. It doesn’t matter for the vote but I wonder who abstained. Yes all these diddy clubs allowing their League to be controlled by the ugly sisters. I really hope now that the Rose win the play offs and gain promotion and out of this now joke League.
Looking 12 months ahead based on this seasons League placings if they are the same another circus will ensue.
Be ashamed the LL.

Mac The Knife, Do you think your club will change their mind from last season of the gruesome twosome being admitted to the LL, or give them the red card?

HOW MANY BONNYRIGG PENALTIES TODAY ? OR WAS THERE A " STRONG " REF ?
Nae penalties yesterday just 3 well taken goals. Bo’ness for a change blamed the pitch for their defeat rather than the ref. In truth Bo’ness we’re poor and The Rose ran out easy winners. Will your team be up for it next Saturday or are the players thoughts already on the end of season beach?

That pitch appears to gets worse every time we get beat there. (was going to put "play there" but knew a Rose fan would edit it)
Any plans to improve it ?It makes a change from blaming the referee for your poor performances -results to blame the pitch!!! There was an interesting article in the Midlothian View yesterday regarding possible action on the pitch. I’ll leave it for you to find the article.
It was a very comfortable victory for the Rose at the end of the day.

So it’s back to Cup duties today against a club who we always have a competitive contest against. I expect no difference today the BUs seem to have been playing better in the last few weeks. The Rose must keep up the momentum in view of the pending play offs. Wonder how many penalties the opposition will cough up today. It gonna be cauld so hopefully the game will keep us warm. Better get some money out from under the mattress and get my ticket for the HL play off match. Will go in the car for the away match.

While their attendances have been higher than average, they've failed to meet their own conservative estimates.
They've lucked out with Bonnyrigg and Vale of Leithen at opposite ends. Only looks like SPFL Trust Trophy participation might be effected as CSS, Berwick, and East Stirlingshire are still in contention. While Berwick Rangers would have the advantage over CSS with no OF.
It would be interesting if someone with the know how(not me) could add another column. A Column with the attendances when the clubs had Bonnyrigg as visitors. Chiefly as “The Rose “ are arguably the best supported team in the League. Thanks if poss.

So last of 4 games with one of the Ugly Sisters in the LL season tonight. I will not be attending the ground that has great memories for The Rose. I have no idea what type of contest it will be at this stage of the season on a reportably tattie field. Good luck to the Rose.

I am against the Old Firm having teams in the LL next season. They should start at the bottom of the West pyramid AND there should be a restriction on the players they use so there's a consistency on field. Integrity goes out the window when they field different teams week to week.
If they are allowed to stay next season then they should play Away every game (excluding the OF game obviously !!).
....and the LL should be receiving a lot more cash. NO PAY, NO PLAY.It’s not about cash it’s integrity that’s at stake here. Both our clubs made the correct decision last summer and will make the same and correct decision this time round.

Bonnyrigg once again doing the right thing by consulting their fans. With roughly a week to go we'll see if any of the other clubs do the same.
Yes indeed another proper decision from The Rose
. I can’t see the supporters/club decision changing. The LL rightly got stick last week for a wrong decision on relegation. I hope all those spineless clubs who voted to admit the ugly sisters last time have seen the folly of that decision and make the proper decision this time.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Barry Ferguson get the job.
EK would do themselves a great favour if they left him where he is in the managerial gutter. Very unpopular at Clyde even more unpopular at Alloa. Spend more time on his media career than the club he is the so called manager at. If boring defensive football is is your forte then fair enough. Kelty fans weren’t bothered when he left,and they got a better manager to replace him.

The point I guess I was trying to make is that clubs paying only expenses will get replaced by clubs that have budgets more in line with what tier 4/5 would naturally pay and the more promotion/relegation places there are, the quicker CSS, Gala, Gretna, Vale, Edinburgh Univ, Caley Braves, Stirling Univ etc will get replaced. Put in the likes of Darvel, Talbot, Pollok, Tranent, Linlithgow etc the expenses only clubs will struggle to outmuscle them. I know there are clubs who are punching in LL and that's brilliant. But increased competition will make it difficult for them. Status quo keeps the inevitable another few years down the road.
Does the first etc include Broomhill?

Yes it was a much better performance last night. The first half was fairly even and if any team had scored in that period I reckon it would have been to their advantage in the second half. But ‘‘twas not to be, an early 3goal blitz from The Rose in the first 15mins of the second half finished the game as a contest. I was as surprised as anyone when George Hunter made an appearance after a couple of months out and how fitting to see him score the 4th goal. Welcome back Geo. It was also pleasing once more that the goals were spread throughout the team, by 3 players who have not scores for a while.

So a gentle journey across the bridge to the Kingdom for a cup tie tonight. From recollection I don’t think we have played a Fife club this season. It will be another tough game for both teams , surely we can’t be a poor as we were last Saturday. The chances that we missed last Saturday will hopefully be converted tonight. It took us a long time to test the Dalbeattie keeper. It would be nice to finish the season with a trophy as well as the League, as we did when we departed junior football.

It's only meant to take a couple of clubs to put forward a motion. At least something like that was said when all this was mentioned last year. If there are 7 votes out there they should be able to get it on the agenda of the AGM.
It would also be beneficial for a united front from the Tier 6 leagues. Especially in light of the ongoing colts issue. It can be argued these clubs are simply trying to line their pockets with the Old Firm's buy in.
I don’t know where you get the idea of clubs trying to line their pockets. The Ugly Sisters Colts have generally not enhanced gate receipts. From what I gather the £25K from each club last season is still in the LL coffers. I would welcome your examples of “lining their pockets” I have made my thoughts known on the Ugly Sisters being in the LL, they have taken the piss.
