Would it be a good thing to have the Champions of the Borders v the Champions of the Lothian Ams at the end of the season??

Sounds like a decent idea to me. Why restrict it tho? How about involving teams from all over the South of Scotland - winners from all Leagues invited to take part in a Champions trophy? Not in a league format like the Champions League - just a knock out trophy?

Just a thought!

champions of the borders would be no match for the likes of Uphall, Dalkieth, Newcraighall,Lochend,Sandys,

no disrespect to the borders teams, but personally i dnt see them winning those games

but it would be a great idea to put in place.

Just think it would help Borders (as well as other) players develop - Good to play better players etc. I have no idea about the other teams but sometimes think Border teams don't get the credit for the way they play. Some decent footballers in the Borders and some attractive football (Gala Rovers, Leithen Rovers, Pencaitland) Agree they would be unlikely to win the competition but would give some teams a decent game. )
Maybe see some Amateur players, with the ability, picked up by SFL teams?

because all the borders teams would struggle against superior lothian players, how about you give the borders team, lets say, a 5 goal headstart ??, you know, just to make it fair like ye ken
