Broomhill Ultra Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 6 hours ago, BANKIEBILL said: Does that take into account playing against each other ?9 No just a very simple points gained divided by games played but I suppose it takes into account games already played against each other. Some massive games coming up for all involved. It’s a very exciting league, though looking at the First Divisin table it has the potential to become even more congested at the top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lokloyal Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 It’s a great competitive league and as good as any in Scotland.We won’t win the league but are probably able to cause mischief if we are on form!If not we will get a few gubbings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good and Bad Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 (edited) I hope the weather settles down to allow games to be played on time. We have had instances of teams in the past struggling due to fixture list. Edited January 24 by Good and Bad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And decent social clubs. Can’t decide between the two. 3: Townhead. Another classic, good cover and terracing and same as above re social club. 4: Newlandsfield. Probably the best in the west outside of Ayrshire. 5: could easily be a number of grounds so in no particular order I’ll mention Barrfields, Dunterlie and Holm Park - all very decent grounds. Additional honorable mentions for Glenafton, Troon and Beith - all good places to watch football too. The work at Darvel in recent seasons has been excellent as well compared to what it was. To be honest, I think we have a really decent set of grounds at the moment. While a number certainly have seen better days or need a bit of work done, for the most part the current premier grounds are in a decent enough state, and a decent place to watch football. Seems like clubs have really cracked on in recent years with sorting out their gaff. Even the only actual cage in the league - MTC, is better than a number of similar grounds, at least there is an effort. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy groundhopper Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Excellent choices, i just love the old covered ends, proper stands and olde open terrace. Always look at how they can be improved without looking stupid. Should be a good title race, hope to see a few in March - my last visit of 2023/24. Could anyone come with a late run ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Townhead falls down due to pitch, also a lot of maintainace lacking in recent years. Use to love townhead 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanner Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Have to say Medda look like a lost cause if that second half yesterday is normal for them. There are a couple of teams I'd rather see take the drop than them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just because its done with night mode that makes it harder to tell the distincton made with the bottom 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They absolutely pulled our pants down in the SOS. I'm certain that the lethargy of our performance that day allowed them to look better than they actually were but I still think they'll be hard to beat in a one off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediocre Pundit Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 How does relegation from WoS Prem work if Clydebank (say) got promoted and Gretna got relegated to SOS? How does the league fill the space - less relegation or more promotion? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
