Anyway, if every side only plays to their own level nobody gets a glamour tie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I am aware, each of the a teams we face are one step below in the pyramid. Not 4. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not remotely having a pop at Cowdenbeath, I'm having a pop at you for having a pop at City's preseason opposition. Why do you care? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you care? Are you the only one that’s allowed to flit about almost every sub-forum and comment about other teams that have nothing to do with you? Sorry, missed that you were in charge. At least I have the excuse that EC are very local to me and I did pay into a few of their games last season. I stand by my slightly tongue in cheek comment that for Edinburgh City to play a team 4 tiers below them, even in a pre season friendly, is a bit odd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Meadowbank Thistle used to play AVU Amateurs every year as their warm up game. The team that finished runners up in Division 1 beat them 22-0 (I was there...!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if they'll have a flute band. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years back when Leith Ath were playing at the 3G pitch at Peffermill there was an ammies game on another other pitch which was abandoned by the ref (who'd had enough of the pagars apparently). One of the teams, to my delight, was AVU who were still going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Their rules allow clubs to apply for a grace period, which Edinburgh City may well have done. We all know that Buckie didn't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know one new player who has definitely signed, but nothing announced by EC, they don’t seem to do communication with fans, he was playing in a bounce game at Broxburn last night against Gala. I am sure they must have signed a bunch more, just not announced anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
