Crazy Feet

The Ashfield Gaffer came from Harestanes. Kennedy at St Rochs from West Park. Hopes at Drumchapel from Possil YM. Obviously Mick at Darvel and now EK. Daryl at Lanark. They've all had differing levels of success but successful in their own right.

Fantastic run Lanark are on. I wonder if the success of the management team will make other clubs look at the amateur ranks for options in the future?

Would be a surprise if Cupar didn't win it from here.

A couple of good teams doesn't make a great "league". There is also an element of luck in cup runs - there's still a Greater Glasgow Team in the later stages of the nationals. The Titanic is sinking but you're still trying to shuffle the deck chairs mate.

It's a shame to see what was the best league in Scotland a couple of years ago now essentially disintegrate into a Youth league.

There are no guarantees in football or set way of playing/formation/style of player that guarantees success. If there was, everybody would be doing it. The reality is what Mick and Si are doing has consistently brought great results this season with blips like yesterday attracting negativity being a victim of their own success so far. The playoffs won't be easy but EK have every chance.

Are there any noises around interested amateur clubs stepping up?

It was a surprise to see Garrowhill beat Drum Utd so comfortably as well.

Castlemilk OBC into the morning setup would be wild. The way the wind is blowing we will be left with The Caley as the only decent afternoon set up.

A smart move imo.... Are there any current afternoon clubs who are moving into the new morning set up?

Strange tweet.

Indeed. I tipped them to do well at the start of the season but I thought they would just miss out on promotion but at the moment they will be really fancying their chances. Johnstone Burgh to win it and then it's a lottery after that (for me).

Ashfield manager has done some job on the budget they have. They have no right to be in the mix against a lot of big spending teams around them.

I actually think it looks very open and a lot of teams will fancy their chances. Castlemilk are favourites but not unbeatable. Drumchapel United are dark horses. Already beat well fancied Annbank in The West Cup a couple of weeks ago they'll fancy their chances again anyone at home.

Castlemilk and Gartcosh surely won't stay in that league now?
