They're more than capable of turning anyone over on their day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F_T_Y Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 We had ten men for most of the game, a poor call for me looked like johnstone got the ball but you cant really tackle anymore. You couldn't really say it changed the game as we passed up numerous chances, tc through on goal, graham header and darroch unmarked from a corner. Even the benburb first goal was through our mistake, dodgy ball back to keeper when it should have been on the motorway. There wont be many more hardworking teams in the league than Benburb. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip they have given us really tough games -old Frank and Paul have got them very well coached and they have some very good young talent.Plus add in the likes of Shaun Fraser who when he is focussed is a very good player and you have a strong team 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNU_Linux Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 I think the main takeaway here is that Paul Lovering's ahem enthusiasm works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched the footage that was posted last night that everyone seemed to be complaining about, including your manager This is the still just before impact that was also posted, , this is a red based on current laws. You can’t tackle like that anymore. Happened to Jordon Allen recently too. Maybe 5 or 10 years ago that was a yellow, but straight in, studs up is dangerous and a red.

Lokloyal Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Yep looks like a red card from that still 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passbackdave Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Was a red all day long no complaints there but better team lost the game. That's Ben's done the double over us this season. Don't want them in Cup. Mon the papers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not man of the match Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 You can't take much from a still and that doesn't look good but there is a few stills in the lead up which makes the Bens player look more dangerous than what is clipped above. Sadly I'm not clever enough to lift from twitter and place on here. The sending off didn't really impact the game, apart from the two goals, Clydebank created numerous chances but couldn't really test the Bens goalkeeper. The opener was a poor mistake from the goalkeeper and the second goal came at the death with Bankies throwing bodies forward for an equaliser. Bens work incredibly hard though and showed on day one they are a good side, results back that up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Step in the right direction. Think how different it could have been if some of the fine margins that went against us actually went our way for example the pollok game, 3pts dropped when we were clearly better team. Not worth crying about now though they scored and we didnt and thats the name of the game. Looking ahead you can see the improvements and hopefully more improvents to come. Everybody seems capable of taking points from everybody else, lots more ups and downs to come this season no doubt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glensmad Posted November 12, 2023 Author Share Posted November 12, 2023 Each season there is actually the possibility of 5 teams going down from each league in the WoSFL, but unlikely. Scenario 1 - No team is promoted from the WoSFL, but a team is relegated from the Lowland League into the WoSFL = 4 teams relegated from each league except for the Fourth Division. Scenario 2 - No team is promoted from the WoSFL, but two teams are relegated from the Lowland League into the WoSFL = 5 teams relegated from each league except for the Fourth Division. (This would only happen if a team is relegated from SPFL League Two into the Lowland League but no Lowland League team is promoted, i.e. the Highland League champions win the play-off, and the bottom two teams in the Lowland League are West-based geographically.) Either scenario is unlikely as the league tables are at the moment, but possible each season as the current rules stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
energyzone Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 If Gretna were to get relegated could they opt to drop into the WOSFL as opposed to the East or South? Just wondering about the situation if the above happens and Beith (for example) win the league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
