No, not the ones throwing the toys out the pram in a hilarious yet threatening statement, but the "writer" of this "article" who thinks that if a team leaves a 19-team league, in order to make it an 18-team league, another team must be added. I actually made the effort to let them know about the mistake, explaining what they'd got wrong as clearly as I could without being bolshie about it. It was a bit of a pain, full address required even when I said no reply needed. So they changed it from this: Quote The Lowland League say they are still planning to have 18 teams in the division next season, which means another club will be added. to this: Quote The Lowland League say they are still planning to have 18 teams in the division next season. Don't know why I bother, I'll just hurl abuse at them on twitter next time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 13/06/2023 at 23:22, AJF said: In fairness, we have brought in 3 free transfers this window thus far while 5 high earners departed at the end of their contract. We’re linked with Lammers for around £3m and Dessiers for around the same which would only be about half of what we spent last summer. I take my hat off to you @AJF Fantastic to see a Sevco fan acknowledging that they are now called Sevco. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s more like when folk from Aberdeen call a chippy a “chipper”.

Did all the chippies in Aberdeen go tits up, got demoted and had to start all over again in the 4th tier as brand new chippies called chippers? And forfeited all their chippy of the year awards? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have liked to have seen him scrabbling about the floor of a Glasgow nightclub lavvie trying to put together bits of a £20 note. Presumably, with sellotape he keeps in his pocket for these sort of events? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) I am a simple man. I see a story and I click it. I see the story is attributed to English. I close the tab without reading any further. As I say, I am a simple man. English's style of prose, and his subtle combination of ignorance and arrogance, is a fucking nightmare to read. You feel his Facebook feeds, if not for public consumption, would be filled with cantankerous boomer "humour" and complaints about how woke everything is.
