Ginaro Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 6 minutes ago, craigkillie said: Looking increasingly likely that a licensed team will win the South of Scotland, so we're going to be looking at the unfair scenario where one of the two teams actually capable of being promoted will have home advantage in the only game that's likely to matter. Or if the east v west game is a draw then it's basically a case of who can score the most against the SOS winners. Unless Abbey Vale or Creetown can go on a run and Stranraer reserves take points off St Cuthbert/Threave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Apparently there will be a penalty shoot-out after any draws in the play-offs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morley Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 With it looking possible VOL may over take Gretna, would Gretna drop into the EoS or SoS? I know Gretna are associated with both organisations but recent legacy is in the EoS, all be it pre pyramid expansion days.....if they do end up relegated surely better chance of coming back from the SoS than EoS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South. I can't remember if they were on the original list that was public when the LL was formed. However, since asking league officials over the years they've always been designated as a South club. The make up and membership of the East has changed greatly since they joined in 2008. The South at least represents bottoming out and the only thing they may lose is the EoS Qualifying Cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suppose that would depend on whether they need to denounce they EOSFA membership when relegated (don't see why they would need to, it's a bit like being a SJFA or Fife FA member). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I say lose, I'm thinking of that more as resigning. The SoSFL is pretty good at managing the league fixtures around the many cups their teams play in. Not signing up for the Wigtownshire & District FA would give some extra flexibility to squeeze in the couple of rounds they'd likely appear in the Qualifying Cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyramid Watcher Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Apologies if this has been answered before, but what is the maximum number of teams which could be relegated in any one season from the LL? I know there are various permutations, and I was wondering if the more informed posters on here could clarify it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second requires the HL Champion to win promotion and Club 42 to be relegated to the LL. Currently Fraserburgh win promotion to the SPFL and Cowdenbeath relegated to the LL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossBFaeDundee Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 VoL now even with Gretna on games played after the latter team's game was postponed today, and Vale managed to grab a rare point and an even more rare clean sheet in a scoreless draw against East Kilbride, a quite incredible achievement on the face of it. Six points between them now, can the Vale turn it around? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWeatherFan Posted January 29, 2022 Author Share Posted January 29, 2022 It's really 7 points due to the goal difference. While I could see them scrape some more points together, they've left it too late. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginaro Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 A look at the remaining six fixtures for each team at the bottom. Gretna: Civil Service Strollers East Stirlingshire (away) Stirling Uni Caley Braves (away) Cumbernauld Colts Bo'ness United (away, tbc) Vale of Leithen fixtures - they'll be hoping for Cowdenbeath to catch Elgin and then Bonnyrigg to go up. Dalbeattie Star Gala Fairydean Rovers (away) Broomhill Cumbernauld Colts (away) Edinburgh Uni Caley Braves (tbc) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Bear in mind that Elgin getting relegated and Bonnyrigg Rose promoted would mean no relegation from the LL. Recent form at the foot of League Two is making that scenario look more likely than it did earlier in the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom team goes down if there is a licensed tier 6 club to come up. It’s the second bottom team who could breathe a wee bit easier. Apologies if I have interpreted that scenario wrongly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Elgin City are Club 42 and Bonnyrigg wins promotion it leaves the Lowland League at 15 clubs. The Tier 6 Champion wins promotion and fills the 16th spot, meaning no relegation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
