Arthurlie1981 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 The old saying that comes to mind is ‘you can only play what’s in front of you’. What does it matter who is in the league and who is not. I’m pretty sure the Junior cup winners would have celebrated the win just as much as normal even though it was shorn of the Lothian/Fife teams. In years to come no one will remember who wasn’t in the league just who won it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In ten years time when you're playing up at Elgin on a wet Tuesday night, you'll be thinking - you know what, that WoSFL title really was tainted. It will haunt you. You won't be able to enjoy the game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Largs Thistle don't win the League, I hope that Clydebank do, that they have a licence, that they win the play-off and that in ten years time they ARE up in Elgin on that wet Tuesday night. Surely you realised I was being sarcastic with that earlier post? Or are YOU being sarcastic and I'm missing it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they decide to call it early on a points per game basis, we will go down as the winners. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most any Premier team has to play to get there is 8 games. There's certainly time to get it done if the opportunity arises. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the latter, is that how the fixtures have gone so far? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect they will pause for a while longer then try and get everyone to the halfway mark before calling it. I expected it would pan out something like the way it has so far also. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the latter, is that how the fixtures have gone so far? I've only heard 50% not everyone once. Probably more in mind of a stoppage like last year when there was no chance of a restart. For the WoS Premier side of things, only Rutherglen & Troon have played each other twice so far. While Troon are in the title race, they still have to play Clydebank, Kilwinning, Irvine Meadow so the extra game wouldn't likely impact the title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobby Dossar Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 The way thing are going if the 1st and 2nd division don’t finish like last season there ain’t going to be any play offs. As I’ve said before turkeys don’t vote for Xmas 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy groundhopper Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Hopefully enough games can get played so that the cups and medals can be given out, something to stick on the mantelpiece eh. Am guessing that the no relegation or play offs would start from the spfl2 downwards ? Or could some leagues think of increasing numbers for next season ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackie Gold Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 You have to laugh at the Bankies fans wanting a tainted title when you remember the state of them when Talbot were awarded the title last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
