What if anything, is happening in Dumfries & Galloway ? For example would the SoSFL clubs chose..... * to stay as they are, at tier 6 league, albeit with no real interest from its clubs in getting promotion to the SLFL, albeit as an independent league, participating in the champions play-offs ? * to merge fully with a new West of Scotland (especially the licensed clubs), presumably as a D&G feeder, with clubs being "slotted in" if the Juniors join the pyramid on mass * to merge with the EoSL and decide to accept demotion to Tier 7, as a feeder league to it, instead of to the WoSL (there is already an affinity between the EoSL and the SoSFL). It is surely time for the SoSFL's clubs to consider their future ? * to Edited June 1, 2018 by Robert James 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Rose Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 It makes me happy knowing that the West juniors will all be left behind. Also reassuring to know that the West bias will disappear. After the Beith stitch up there was no other option for the big rose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Rose Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I’ll add Dean Brett’s scandalous appeal to that too. Closed shop of arseholes that are reaping what they sewed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mantis Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 1 hour ago, Red Rose said: I can only see us getting stronger from this point onwards. Great committe and a team that could currently hold their own in league one. I’m a big admirer of the Rose but let’s no get carried away Unless you mean league 2... Deano #1 got about 60 games for Berwick. Deano #2 had a decent career at Cowden. Both perennial lge 2 strugglers. The rest of the squad have no significant senior experience afaik. Big Kieran is never going to score goals at league level, even Wayno at his peak couldn’t do it on the big occasion. And yes, I know you deservedly beat Dumbarton... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talbot 78 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 The east are weaker than the west by a heavy margin. Bonnyrigg are the big team in the east at the moment but were never able to topple the west big dogs. I do wish them luck in the future unlike red rose who must still have a few thorns up his backside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming all still there, Michael Andrews, Lee Currie and Ewan Moyes all 100+ senior apps. Brown, Gray and Nelson in the 90s.

You say that, but nothing I’ve seen this season suggests there’s much of a gap between east and west. It’s more a question of overall standard in the juniors, and my hunch is that it’s slipping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all playing at a level well above league 2 and Kieran has been superb for months. Wayno has been at his peak for the Rose. Dean Brett is easily one of the best players in the league on current form You are a slaver pal. Edited June 1, 2018 by Red Rose 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He done well for us in the Championship and it was said that Livi and Falkirk were looking at him but it never came to anything. Don't know if he would get back to those heights again but could certainly do a job in L1 and L2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a toss up between him and Brown as the best full back in Junior football. Moyes and Young could easily play championship too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
