Man from the East

Still a very long way to go yet. A lot of football to be played, points to be won and lost. But, Luncarty have put a spanner in the works. Fully expect some more over the next couple of weeks. Obviously it was the result that most Dunbar supporters wanted. As said earlier - the prospect of another East Lothian team in the premier is getting closer.

I think that promotion is the #1, everything else is secondary. Hopefully DU continue their positive progress back to the premier. Every point still has to be hard earned.

Even better one for Luncarty

Didn’t really work out that way,,,plus a man sent off

I agree very much - there’s going to be twists and turns. With no doubt some inexplicable defeat for someone. Theres a couple of tough run in sequences, and also some gritty teams at the lower end with it all to play for in terms of maintaining their place in the Div 1. Yes, agree points on the board are like the golden share.

A very tidy, organised, safe, comfortable and clean ground.

Dinnae quote me fellah, that’s what I’m trying to find out. I couldn’t believe the venue capacity wise. Broadwood makes much more sense to me.

I’m told the final is at Irvine Meadow. Will it be a tickets only game?

And they’ve (Glens) also got to play all the top 5,,, which DU have already done very successfully.

Interesting the match between those two in August gave a 7:3 victory……. to Luncarty.

Personally I think they’re a tough side to grind out a result from. Dunipace even more so.

Tremendous achievement. Very very well done. All the best in the final

Very well done to the Glens. nice one. All the very best in the final. Think I’ll be there.

Looking at the some of the remaining fixtures - could be entertaining. DUFC play four of the current bottom 6 clubs 15 - Shipyard 14 - Lochore 12 - Leith 11 - Camelon however, Glenrothes are due to play all clubs listed in todays top five, comprising; 1 - DUFC 3 - Nitten 4 - Luncarty 5 - Dunipace You couldn’t make it up what’s going on in this league. Great entertainment and interest.

Apparently,,,

Think I can follow that. It seems correct. But,,,,,,, surely the SoS and WoS leagues winners are entitled to a play off scenario. Whether they actually meet the criteria in other factors is a separate matter to be dealt with outside of any play-off. Perhaps it not yet all done and dusted.

That’s not the simplest chart to follow. Will the LL ever become a 16 team league?

Who got the red card? What for?

Tomorrow it’s yet another trip to the nice City of Perth in the quest for league points. The earlier meeting in the season at NCP resulted in a convincing 5:0 victory. By all accounts last Saturday in the same neck of the woods seemed to be a thoroughly convincing performance - very well done to all!! Hopefully the sequence continues.

I’d go with that. Also, there’s a quotation ‘All Champions are winners, but not all sinners are Champions.

Don’t you think that having that safety net makes clubs look for the easy option? Then when the LA has tight budgets, football clubs will be the last thing on their minds. Then there’s the discussion about where you draw the line, tier 3,4,5,6,7 or 8 ,,,, Not easy to resolve that one.

Why should the local Authority be the main source of infrastructure improvements? I’d much rather the LA financed homes and health and if they were to provide financial support - it would be for job creation and sustainability. Clubs may have to do more to help themselves. some will some won’t, some are capable, some aren’t. In football it’s cyclical. Look at previous big clubs who are floundering,,,, why does that happen?

To be fair, the Groundhopper day probably lifted those clubs participating numbers considerably. It has probably doubled the normal match day attendance and put about 30+ onto the season average. The Groundhopper day has slewed the average and biased it a little bit. But overall the same sort of profile would have emerged. I’m told that the Groundhopper attendances were independently verified. Overall it’s great picture and very useful bit of information.

Interesting numbers,,,, One club seem to almost entirely have an attendance ending in ‘0’

Not got any hump Yep agree K&D look more dangerous than Glens
