Burnieman Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 They could be in for another tough season come August, the Second Division would seem to be a better environment to halt the decline and rebuild. Good luck to them though, we need more of them and less Syngenta's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crow Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 (edited) All the best to Ian and Jocky. Were involved at the top end of U20 football for 4 seasons when it first started and moved on to build a more than competitive side over the same sort of time at Edinburgh United. A good appointment from the Vale committee. Get a side on the park for the last 8 games to see out the season and get building for next season in the 1st Division.

superbigal Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 I guess what little heart the current players had was about the combined size of a walnut. Anymore no shows and there should be the risk of being removed from the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1985 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Ian Flynn and Jocky McCrAw is a good appointment - just need to get thru this season and start from scratch next season with their own players 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy groundhopper Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 On my way around Easter, is there any way I can get from Glasgow to V of L for a night k.o, apart from hiring a car - or staying over ? Not sure of last Innerleithen last buses yet (Similarly for Dalbeattie) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalbeattie games no chance - back of beyond. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNU_Linux Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 How much are the Vale impacted by egg chasing? It's hardly a secret rugby is the more dominant sport in the Borders but Innerleithen unusually doesn't have a rugby team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peebles themselves didn't come across as mad a rugby town as Hawick or Kelso. Leithen Rovers in the ammys were always pretty strong alongside VoL, Tweeddale (sometimes avec Colts) and Peebles Rovers all in the same area though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's a late bus and this train contraption you speak of? @Andy groundhopperthe only way to get around Galloway if you don't use own transport is to use the force. @Spyroremember this is Wicker Man country so don't come if you are a virtuous man or a virgin. Galloway the forgotten county both by Holyrood and Westminster. Thats what you get when you consistently vote in a Tory. I know keep politics out this forum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hardly a secret rugby is the more dominant sport in the Borders but Innerleithen unusually doesn't have a rugby team. I remember reading that a local player died playing rugby and therefore Innerleithen became more of a football town than their neighbours. Walkerburn is only a mile or so along the road and has a rugby team despite a tiny population and the kids will go to Peebles High School so I'd expect it's a fairly even split between football and rugby there really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
