I'd laugh if it wasn't for the fact that £ast Kilbride are the main beneficiaries... Shame about this. If my team has to lose their place in the league I’d rather it was to a team that wasn’t financially doped to buy promotion - too many of these already in the SPFL! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean financially doped as in owners and directors who are willing to invest in their club and show a bit of ambition? -7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Fucking incredible the lengths Buckie will go to to avoid promotion, fair play. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many clubs sat on their arses for years showing no ambition happy to take the SFA check every year. Good luck to the clubs who want to grow. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmic Joe Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) What an absolute shitshow from Buckie Thistle. In fairness though, the system should only include clubs that are interested/ qualified (not B teams) to be part of the pyramid.

I don’t think our leagues should have clubs which are technically insolvent and where the ‘investment’ is a statement by directors/owners that they will pay the bills if necessary.

Buckie are qualified to be part of the pyramid - they're not qualified to move up to a higher level though. The idea that the spot should just be handed over to whichever non- entity in the division has the correct licence is utter pish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to know without details of what they failed on though. How the f**k do Clyde get a silver for ground, they're homeless 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamamafegan Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Notice Buckie haven’t even released a statement on this. I think they’ve deliberately let this happen. Should be able to put Brechin forward instead. It’s tinpot stuff from Buckie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to the clubs who want to grow. As opposed to East Kilbride who have rocketed from their lowly position in the Lowland League to their current lofty position in the Lowland League. And it only took a small fortune and an army of ex-SPFL mercenaries to get them there. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
