Speaking to someone at Peebles today, that might not be happening yet as the facilities they were/are planning to move to don't meet the standard. Peebles are hoping to get a stay of execution at Whitestone Park - but the guy I spoke to also mentioned groundsharing with the rugby club next door - not sure if he meant temporarily or permanent.

Heard a rumour that Edinburgh United are being deducted 9 points. Anyone else heard this?

Here are our (Newburgh) highlights from the game that I finished this afternoon, if anyone's interested?

Pumpherston 1 Newburgh 2 King Cup 2nd Round Saturday 9th March 2024 Recreation Park, Pumpherston

The East of Scotland wouldn't be happy with Dunfermline trying to postpone their team's (Rosyth) games. Think that's one of the stimulations of the League.

Wow.

I thought Peebles were moving grounds?

I'd be interested to see the stats to back this up, particularly over the past 10-15 years.

The problem is, in the UK you can never accurately predict or know when the bad weather will come. Anytime from November through to March is easily capable of being blitzed with bad weather.

Newburgh vs. Albion Rovers in Round 1. Winners play West Park United at home in Round 2.

I'm sure Edinburgh United will feel a small sense of consolation that the relegation picture has been put back to what it originally was come the last day, but it's particularly strange considering Edinburgh United's offence took place in March and was dealt with so you assumed the League was finished with. What has occurred or how was it discovered something in January is now an error? Surely you can point a finger of blame at EoS, along with Craigroyston, for only reacting to this now?

Mental! What is going on with all these ineligible players? Are clubs deliberately playing these or is there some miscommunication over suspensions or player signings and availability? There's been so many across the EoS this season.

The issue seems to be as much them playing ringers under registered players names (as per Lochgelly's claim) so signing your management team as players probably lends them to potentially exploiting this issue further.
