No meaningful historic national non league cup that captured imagination or proper derby match that whole community got behind in the junior grade. Aye sounds brilliant so it does. Don't have to get misty eyed over a national non-league cup, since they'll be in the actual Scottish Cup. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really do stumble from one fuckfest to another. Posters who do not list either location or their club are, for the most part, attention-seeking trolls. Congratulations, we are convinced ! Now you can just f**k off and let serious fans discuss the future. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo'ness Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 It will be good to restore a senior rivalry with East Stirlingshire. The senior side in Bo'ness always had them as a rival. It will be even better if we can, through time restore rivalries with Alloa & Stenhousemuir, even Stirling Albion whose forerunners were King's Park. As long as the club doesn't over-reach itself financially, the future is bright. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 ...the future is orange in terms of away jerseys? Finances are definitely going to be a major challenge next season* and beyond given the sort of backing the Shire, Kelty and Brora have. Think some covered seating similar to what Kelty did is something that should maybe be on the agenda more than increasing capacity up to 4500, if the 5 year plan is geared towards SPFL entry. *- All going well at the SFA AGM. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John S Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Over the next few years with teams going up and others coming down the Lowland League will look very different, and will include Linlithgow Rose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urgh, you're right... Staying junior would have protected us from playing against any small clubs, guaranteed progression to higher leagues, resulted in the transfer of the ownership of Newtown Park to BUFC, prevented the formation of any other football club in the town, prevented the running of any websites or social media accounts related to the club except for those previously approved by the PolitBUro, and we'd have single handedly saved the credibility of the SJFA Cup. To quote Homer Simpson: By the way, I was BEING SARCASTIC (Seriously, I think the point I'm trying to make is that the times they were a-changing regardless of what we did, and we might as well be at the forefront.) 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The League will look different that's for sure but the longer the wee Rose take to go up, the harder it will be. They don't have the money they used to have, to be successful. Not trying to score a point over them but by the time their squad re-building is done we could be in the SPFL!

A lot depends on how many relegation places there are in the LL to make way for promotion from below. If it stays at one and most of the larger WoS clubs get licensed quickly, the west champion will probably win the playoff most seasons. That makes winning the EoS and getting promoted this season potentially a huge advantage for any club that does it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
