Now we all know why you were so defensive over the vote to allow the Colts in the league. Dunno where to start Stirling Uni also voted for b teams, you annoying purple dragon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many rules/regulations and so many keyboard lawyers lately. Just want to concentrate on the fitba 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want to concentrate on the fitba The rule doesn't explain inviting Cowdenbeath because it explains why Albion Rovers are included. Concentrating on the fitba is a good plan. I have no problem with Cowdenbeath being invited if there is a fair and transparent reason as to why they were invited as opposed to any other LL/HL club e.g. all club names put in a hat and they were the one drawn out. I also have no problem with the club accepting the invitation. The issue is that there is no explanation as to why the process is different from the past 2 years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The year before it was East Kilbride as Lowland League runner up. The expectation would therefore be the runner up of one of those two leagues rather than a team finishing 15th. I don’t think Stirling Uni were runners up in the Lowland League by your methodology given you say Cowdenbeath were 15th - you are saying on that basis a B team should have been a candidate along with Buckie Edited June 8, 2023 by Cowden Cowboy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B teams are not currently included in the League Cup (that would be a whole other issue) and I wouldn't want them to be, so Stirling Uni would be next in line for LL. It really makes no difference to me which team is chosen but it should either be one of the runners up (as in previous seasons) or the alternative process for choosing who to invite should be stated, whether that be Cowdenbeath or any other club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t say you said Stirling - you said runner up which was Rangers B if I recall. So logically that is one of the 2 teams you felt merited the place. If you say Cowden were 15th then you are saying Stirling Uni were 4th. If you are suggesting Stirling Uni were 2nd (runner up) then Cowden too must be advanced in the League standings to 12th not 15th on that method of looking at things - if the facts are to be recorded in an unbiased manner! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
