Young guy from Troon.?

Terry , you make me happy when sky’s are gray.

Looking forward to seeing how it all pans out in August. This phony war that is pre season is just an excuse for a wind up and the Darvel thread has kept me entertained. Can’t wsit till it kicks off properly.

That’s right the same team that the Vics 10 plus 1 beat

This guy makes a good argument. I took this off the Johnstone Burgh site.

Having an SFA Licence guarentees entry to the Scottish Cup. Having a licence also opens up access to funding and grants from the SFA which could be used to improve facilities and infrastructure. My opinion is that by being seen as a progressive, ambitious club, with guarenteed Scottish Cup entry, this would attract more sponsors and supporters to matches. Johnstone is a town of over 15,000 people. There is potential for the club to grow. Kelty Hearts have been trailblazers as far as joining the Pyramid goes. One of their Members posted on Pie & Bovril what benefits they have gained through joining the East of Scotland League, which I have posted below: What does the East of Scotland Football League have to offer? • Membership of EOSFL which confirms acceptance of and commitment to the pyramid system thereby satisfying a mandatory requirement of being granted a Club Licence.

What a great initiative. I will make sure I catch a game at some point over the next few months.

I was in Holm Park for the first time in years towards the end of the season. It was delapidated to see the least. I’m not here to criticise the ground as I’m sure knowing a big refurb was due a lot had been neglected. I’m not sure of the capacities but Lochburn is far better situated. Maybe a Bankie could advise.

Lochburn is a strange looking ground but what it will do is allow big crowds when the Pollok et al visit. Good pint in the club and plenty of pubs about if you fancy sampling the Maryhill hospitality. Hope it goes well up there for possibly your last year in the Juniors.

So pleased you are moving forward. I enjoy a wee day out at Fullerton Park. Good luck for the season , think if you can stay on the coat tails of the Gow you will be there or thereabouts.

I wonder will those same players still be there at the start of this season or did they just get a pay for two games?

What Kansas City are they from. I’m sure the US has two.

I fancy Rutherglen to go very close to winning their league. I called Royal Albert last year so here’s hoping I get this one right to piss you off.

So you are equating the deaths of football fans with me “red-doting” your posts after you red dotted mine.?? You sir are a troll who has been owned on numerous occasions across P and B I just hope I’ve ruined your day.
