I might be wrong but do they not go to whatever league is local to them below div 2 ie lowland league,Highland league or east of Scotland league 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Big huge St Mirren fan Chick Young just reeled off the times when St Mirren won the 1st Division/2nd tier. And missed out 99/00. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 He was also greeting about St Mirren fans going on the pitch at full time. When, and why, did folk start crying about a pitch invasion from fans who's team have just won the league? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A relegated SPFL team goes into either the HL or LL, depending if they are N or S of the Tay. If Cowden do go down this year, a second team would be relegated from the LL to either the SoS or EoS league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcat(The most tip top) Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 The buddies also finished 3rd in 1893 An achievement that was probably sweetened by Paisley rivals Abercorn joining Clyde as the first two teams to be relegated 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today’s results mean Whitehill are safe alongside Gala, and Dalbeattie are the only club left still needing to scrape enough points. It might have been settled today but Vale’s game was off.

Yeah, it's really interesting; I've been keeping an eye on it all season. The fact Gordon & Co did not even know what happened to team 42 and beyond was simply staggering. I didn't think my opinion of them could sink any lower this season, but there you go... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they can have odd numbers of teams so they don’t need to demote anybody I get it now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fort William are in real danger of collapse or withdrawal, but it's nothing to do with Cowden or whoever being relegated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, at the risk of hijacking the thread, I was at Whitehill 4 Gala 2 today which ended a run of 8 defeats for WW. Probably the worst run in their history. Also saw the Cowdenbeath- East Kilbride playoff last year where Cowdenbeath survived on penalties.
