Their location is actually quite good my friend being right on the Cumbrian border and only 5 mins from Carlisle. They are not in an isolated part of D&G, being right on the M74 they are only an hour or so from Central Belt. But they dont seem to be a draw. Get the impression not that much liked around D&G area. I totally understand what you mean about the location, I think their main issue is that the teams round about them in Carlisle/Cumbria will probably pay better. I actually quite like going there. So I hope they get it together. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Edin Uni are better than last year Gretna may be following Star down here for next season. Hope you are on your way to the Alliance or there already? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't underestimate youth. Especially if they are talented and have belief. Decent start makes the managers task easier to motivate the boys for midweek. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All in all though it’s a really good start against a fancied team. Edited July 22, 2023 by Pyramid Watcher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishLoon Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) Can't lie as an outsider until it possibly becomes as feared and east Kilbrides money are running away at the top of the league I'm looking forward to keeping an eye on the lowland for once. Looks even more competitive than last year. expect cowdenbeath to be up and around things after their league cup showing too.

Shows how much Celtic care about the league they also had a B team friendly at Camelon, no idea how they split their squad if they put a strong one out at one of the games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stanley Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Although they lost, that seems like a better scoreline for Edinburgh Uni than might have been predicted based on last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was out of contract in a couple of games time and was told not to come back. He seen his contract out. He did get an SFA charge but the hearing was never conducted so again untrue about the automatic ban. 1 out of 3 ain't too bad though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
