Strange times we are living in. 1) Buckie get removed from the play-offs 2) EK beat Club 42 3) EK are excluded from entry to the SPFL because it is found that their doctor is actually a vet or their diversity plan is antisemitic or something. 4) Applying the League Cup Precedent, Cowdenbeath are invited to take the SPFL place - which was the plan aaaaall along. This is actually less mental than some of the stuff on the conspiracy theories thread. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All correct until 4) It's Hearts B as runners-up, not Cowdenbeath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowdenleith Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Can’t say I’m thrilled with the prospect of Stranraer dropping down. Hoped it might have been a club with a decent travelling support. Oh well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) Bonnyrigg Rose safe given their goal difference. Last games are Elgin v Clyde (7th v 9th) and Stranraer v Stenhousemuir (10th v 1st) Looks grim for Stranraer but.... If Stranraer win and Clyde lose. Clyde are club 42. If Stranraer win by 3 goals (3-0, 4-1 etc) and Clyde draw, Clyde are club 42. Edited April 27 by Deanburn Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholas Rage Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Would fancy EK to beat Stranraer as well. Fun first away trip but the novelty will soon wear off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer them than Clyde who I think would do a mini EK and out spend the rest of us, don't think Stranraer would do the same. In comparison to other LL sides the Blues have a decent travelling support a lot of them live in the central belt.

I think everyone knows the standard ain't great, but a minor cup game when you're going for a league title is hardly a priority. Winning on Wednesday against Wigtown & Bladnoch gives them the edge in the title race, but still means going away to their title rival Creetown in a game they can't afford to lose. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been working through a fixture backlog so it seemed like a good chance. They've just gone Tues-Thurs-Saturday with Wednesday around the corner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying for a moment Star, or Creetown will be favourites in a playoff, but just to put some meat on the bones. Star put out what was basically a 2nd XI, today. Bigger games to come next week after having played 4 games in 8 days. 2 league games remaining 4 pts required to win title. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
