Expect Edinburgh Rose and Linlithgow to be strong again. Sandys will be back up there. Hearing they've re-signed Ozzy and they've signed Andrew Kidd from Bonnyrigg Rose Juniors.

 

Tollcross to struggle.

The players that left tollcross never won anything and never have won anything at amateur level, so I'm sure they won't be missed too much. Tollcross will finish top half, solid as usual. Where they finish and what they win depends on if the calibre of player is higher than those that left, won't be hard in my opinion

Craigshill to win Prem 2 easily as been said previously.

 

Linlithgow to win Prem 1 with South Gyle (If still around), Fernie and possible Tollcross to struggle aswell. Lost good players and depends who they bring in. Think the boys that left will be a big loss imo, 5 or 6 of them would be starting pretty much every week.

I dont think prem 2 will be as easy as everyone is making out. Craigshill have been brilliant and deserve their paludits. However I know St Bernards have strengthened an already good side. Be tighter than everyone expects I reckon. Lochend pulled off a few trasfer coups also, few ex junior players.

 

Prem 1 will depend on who brings who in and who has lost who. I felt linlithgow were the best side we played last year, although the rose were a good set up aswell and obviously deserved it over the course of the year or wouldn't have won it. Think there might be a couple of dark horses in the race this year. Kiddo to sandy is a big signing and could maybe impact who else they get in, so you never know

Fact is the players that left have left because they want to win trophies. If they don't feel they are good enough to win them in Prem 1 and have to drop to God knows where, that's their prerogative. I'm always of the opinion to play as high a level as you can. If they were really good they'd be in EoS, lowland or junior. They can and will be replaced, so anyone of the notion that tollcross will struggle is completely wide of the mark and proof will be in the pudding as they say

Tollcross need to change not only there style but there whole management if they are to win anything. Played against them many times and tryouts know exactly how they are going to shape up etc. Do not hear a peep for 90 mins from the sidelines.

Think sandys will be the dark horse for the league!!!!

They maybe left because they are all friends and want to play with other friends? Not everyone wants to go play at the highest level they can. Out of interest who has officially left? Some people want to play with friends and enjoy it. If they can win trophies then that's a bonus.

As for the Tollcross management, they must be the quietest sidelines in the association. Used to hear the fuller figured coach but nothing from the manager. Can't blame the players all the time for no trophies......

hmm.

 

Premier - Linlithgow.  2nd edin rose.  Third, dark horses Danderhall.  (Sandys type home field advantage there.  I'm scared as a watcher.  Wonder how the refs and away teams feel.)

 

Fernieside for relegation.  Team are aging.  One season too many (unless new signings)  Tollcross might join them unless new players come in.

 

Craigshill for the champ obviously.  Lochend to join them.  Vic loco or st bernards for third.  

 

Lothian East  - ESV  

Lothian West - Tollcross, erm I mean Salvesen.

 

Edinburgh West - Edinburgh City Ams

Edinburgh East - Dunedin

You can blame players if they don't apply themselves and if a few aren't pulling in the same direction as everyone else, then you've little chance of winning anything. As for noise on the touchline, that doesn't win you games. Seriously, no trophies for shouting the loudest. All tollcross is missing is a general on the pitch, nothing wrong with the way they play. People that say otherwise are jealous or delusional, in my opinion ofcourse

Of course you blame the manager. By the sounds of things you are attached to tollcross in some way? If the guys weren't good enough why did they get resigned and played? Manager sometimes needs to swallow some pride and walk away. Maybe should follow the players to a lower level as you class it.

Danderhall for prem 1 in saying!!!!

Nobody is saying you win things from shouting the loudest, but you do need that from the sidelines. They lost 2 good vocal coaches who knew their stuff in exchange for 2 former players who were awful and know very little. The manager needs to take control more and get the team better organised and try come up with a plan B when the nice football doesn't work.

As game changer said it's maybe time the manager swallowed his pride and left for a lower level. Done nothing in Prem 1 or 2 and with the other coaches lack of knowledge or experience won't anytime soon.
