The Informer

Not that reliable then?

I made a point on another thread earlier, what difference does it make? People are obsessed by how many fans a club has.

That’s an original one, It’s always good when the attendance police come out to play, they always have a wide range of opinions on the subject. I’ve been to a fair few games this season across the grades, and to be honest I’ve never really bothered how many were watching. As long as it doesn’t dilute the quality on the park then what’s the hassle?

I can see this pre- season turning into a pissing contest between Kelty and EK, who can outdo the other with the quality of their respective signings. 15-love Kelty at the moment.

I can’t see this being long term, I think his Motherwell position will take up more time than he thinks.

You should maybe ask on the BSC thread? I’m sure @Jerry Macguire will let you know

As a neutral fan in the league, I think they have been very good on the pitch. Can I ask you in what way is it holding up the prospects of the league? Apologies, that was to Craigiemack.

All I can see is the prize money list??

You haven’t shown me anything where it says it does exist? P.S You seem to be getting a bit tetchy about this, let’s try and keep it civil if you don’t mind. Thank you.

I’ll stick by my original statement thanks.

Yes there is. I would disagree

There is no parachute payment.

It would require a rule change to go to 17, that’s not going to happen.

It was a SFA board decision, therefore cannot be appealed to the governing body. There is an option to go for independent arbitration, that would be Bonnyrigg’s best option.

Money talks, and if the amounts rumoured to being paid by Kelty are true, then it’s no surprise players are going there.

I’ve heard a rumour tonight that Dean Shanks has been sacked. Shocking if true.

If they do I would imagine they won’t go public with it, and create an inflated market. This is the danger for Shire I think, clubs and players will be looking for a wee bit more now

Not Spartans, who won league last year? Not BSC who have finished 3rd and 2nd in last 2 seasons?

The gif the club used was the Simpsons, who happen to live in Springfield. Never mind, the joke has gone

Shouldn’t that be the first shoots of Springfield?

I wasn’t aware you were a ltd? I thought you were a community organisation. My apologies.

There are generally grants etc available for new stands, infrastructure etc?

I don’t know where the cash comes from, and to be honest I’m not too bothered. My point was about the sustainability of such an approach, and given the figures rumoured to be being paid, is it next season or bust?

Great for the LL, however you have to wonder at the spending levels and sustainability in relation to the level Kelty are at? Fair play to them though, I just think it’s got the potential to go wrong.

My reading of it is that the bottom team can only be relegated if there is a licensed team to come up, and there isn’t. Therefore WW are safe, and Berwick will fill the 16th slot, there will be no application process.
