Add to Peebles and there's your "some". That's interesting. I must have imagined having a pee in the toilet beside the pie shop. You were so pissed that you had a piss in the pie shop. I hope you didn't buy a pie afterwards.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're into change or die territory now. This attitude has always pissed me off. The SFA is the governing body of Scottish football, not the Scottish league system. Being in or outside the league pyramid is utterly irrelevant to whether a club should be in the Scottish Cup. The Scottish Cup ought to be open to any club that can get a licence for their ground, and involvement in the pyramid should have nothing to do with it. Naw, this is the best licence: https://www.westlothian.gov.uk/article/3009/Sex-Shop-Licence Genuine question - why do sheep move in flocks? Is it because they are stupid? Or is it because there is safety in numbers, there is strength in being together, and being isolated is incredibly dangerous? The value of novelty and rejuvenation shouldn't be underestimated. It's what, 17 years since the formation of the Superleague, and things have become stagnant. The change itself will whet a lot of appetites. The novelty aspect is true, but ultimately we should all remember next season we are going to watching the same chaps (i.e. those not good enough to attract a league club) playing the same sport in front of similar-sized attendances as this season, albeit (for some of us) at a few different grounds. Like as not the same clubs will still be hoovering up the baubles. Plus ca change.....etc Edited June 3, 2018 by Ian38018 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the previous public waiverings of Dundonald and St. Andrews they probably fancy their chances something can still be turned around. They probably don't want to give up defeat on something so important. They've got hope, hope in the shape of Linlithgow Rose voting to stay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly they've been quite communicative with the clubs to fill them with scare stories and likely promises that they don't have the power alone to guarantee. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until the East Region know how many teams are left there's not much they can do with regards to league set ups for next season and I'm sure that any lobbying of clubs thinking about leaving would have been done in private. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truthteller Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) So called big clubs should be leading the way. Linlithgow and Bo'ness who are being dragged in kicking and screaming. Big clubs ??????? You're having a f#####g laugh teams in the west will be pissing themselves laughing At least the other east region clubs had the baws to make the decision to move off their own backs. the wee rose and Bo'ness have had their heads up their own ass for years full of their self importance, and are now being led by others truthteller says it as it is Edited June 4, 2018 by Truthteller -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
