Just in time for them all to run off for two weeks leave and not be available to take questions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are GCC going to be pulling our chains for a bit longer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignoramus Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 That’s one of the three hinted at by Maitland out of the door. I’ll bet Mulvanny will be one of the others, he’s barely played. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The play-off is 100% short-term benefit to favour the League Two club and truthfully, I’d feel better if Clyde were relegated knowing they wouldn’t have to go through the play-off for a chance to go back up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The (sometimes necessary) turnover of players at the levels below League 2 would make a joke out of the suggestion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Promotion play offs are one of my favourite things about football, but there should always be an automatic promotion and relegation to go alongside them. If an ambitious club smashes the Lowland/Highland League and wins by 20 points, and then defeats their regional counterpart in a play off, they deserve to be promoted. If that scenario occurs but going into the play offs they have key players injured, or as we’ve seen the team that finishes bottom of L2 starts to rest players to remove them from the potential losing mentality, and they lose a two legged play off, it’s a bit of an injustice imho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was the HL and LL are directly below the league setup in terms of the pyramid. The Wosfl etc aren’t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_bully_wee Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I could honestly listen to McCall talking about binning handfuls of these idiots all day. "I gave some people that I've not seen an opportunity... We'll see what happens there." "I'm getting a far clearer picture of players; who to keep and who will not be getting kept, and that will be made public in the next two or three weeks." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of curiosity how is "an ambitious club" defined? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
