You and your 9000 other townie pals will never forget the 3-0 humiliation from the minnows along the road, so stop telling lies, you’re not 6 years old anymore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not worth repeating the reasons as this forum isn’t interested in a reasoned debate. The fans that were there are the important people and tho most agreed, some didn’t but think everyone appreciated the difficulties all Clubs were placed in by Maxwell etc and the required action going forward. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's getting most people's goat here is the no fucks given attitude cowden supporters are giving to their clubs betrayal of Scottish football No one likes us,we don't care.who else says that.....? I can only speak for myself and say that I have adopted a fairly bombastic attitude on the multitude of threads that have popped up on the similar subjects. I’m a fairly placid guy, but only taking so much of the crap that has been thrown at us. Cowdenbeath fans are some of the nicest, easy going folks I’ve come across. I’m gonna step back from these B team/conference/good guy list/shit stirring threads as they have been mostly a complete waste of air. People who may know more than most are shouted down by the empty vessels on here, when trying to give information to the best of their knowledge. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) Ad usual like most threads, this has become a 25 year old married couple. 10 of the 16 clubs voted to keep the weans in. We are not privy to their reasons why. Speculation is rife. The b teams in LLland don't seem to have been the roaring success we were promised. So the next wonderful idea is this conference malarkey. It appears that the 16 LLland clubs have been told different versions of this proposal, probably dependent on their history. All that the bickering has done is the usual; the coo fans on here have become passive aggressive towards the rest. The other 9 plus the no voters are incredibly quiet. Do we seriously believe Cowdenbeath and the others want to play in such a league. That would be a slow death for any club. I don't have the golden answer. But what I do know from 30+ years as a union rep. The powers always use the same tactic; DIVIDE & CONQUER. Don't let them. Find common ground to fight from. Oh here I know; a love of the game. Have faith in one another my brothers, and sisters. (Long Live Loretta) Edited May 3, 2023 by HorseyGhirl 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe any discussion was permitted. Did they ever say who was on the PWG? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
