In fairness all due diligence has been done, so yes concede ya bot!

Pound to a penny when they do, it will be Talbot's fault somehow.

In all honesty, I haven't lived there for 14 years and haven't found myself in that situation for a long time so it's easy for me to say what I think I'd do. Surely racist shouts are the one thing which everyone is united against and is therefore something which has to be taken to task.

Gone up and spoken with the boys. You?

That wasn't what I was suggesting at all but doing nothing but mutter under your breath is not a solution either.

Why's Tim Vine getting involved.

Split loyalties for you, eh? Oh aye, I'm on your ignore list

The only way to sort it is to get them out, team handed if need be. Can't understand people clutching their pearls but doing nothing else.

And did any of you gaspers call them out for it or did you settle for making a mental note to post here about it instead?

New York cops will turn a blind eye to anything.

Frank Hill got his tracksuit on?

It has become a bit of a joke by saying that Tony McInally will sue them but in all honesty, if the reason is not to pay the bonus, he would be very much within his rights to do so.

Agreed. Although it could be argued that Beith currently find themselves in the position that Talbot were in in the Junior leagues. Keep winning the league and you get Scottish Cup entry anyway. They won't be thinking like this though.

You could be right but they seem to make the right noises at the right times. Regardless of this, they are the champions so it's up to all the other ambitious clubs to race for the golden ticket.

To play into the hands of @judge macbrayne and @Vanderbilt, a caveat to everything I have said is that lots of clubs/fans quite enjoy the competitive, reasonably local nature of the WoSFL so it's not disastrous not to get promoted. However that shouldn't be confused with lack of ambition and the ludicrous notion that they are not trying to win the league or would deliberately throw the resulting play off, before the above mentioned start.

The point is why should they be changed. It seems like the true inhibitor for WoSFL teams progressing is the closure of submissions for licensing. If they were open then Beith would be going all out for that. Until such times, the route is crystal clear. Win the league and the gate suddenly opens...until you reach the next gate that is.

Ok, thanks for the explanation but I disagree. Most Talbot fans AFAIK accept the fact that if they don't win the league they won't have a chance to go up. What I'm saying is that the majority of Clydebank fans on here and in fact the majority of posters who are in favour of a highest placed loser idea are Clydebank fans.

You'll have to explain that one, I'm afraid. Do you mean it will impact Talbot?

No, as well you know. I'm saying that the overwhelming majority of people here who are advocating the highest placed loser (note the word loser) should be allowed an opportunity to progress. But then you knew that.

That would genuinely be hilarious.

The Serie B twists continue as Venezia bag a late winner and Como could only manage a bore draw at Modena to keep the second promotion spot in the balance. The last round of matches are this Friday evening with Como just needing to beat Cosenza at home to go up. However, if they draw and Venezia win at La Spezia, then it's the Venetians who take the place. If anyone is interested you can get the Como match live online by signing up for free at https://tv.comofootball.co./home It's basically Mola TV and it's worth watching if only for the Alan Partridge-esque presenter/commentator. Interestingly, Martin O'Neill has the full time gig as pundit for Como.

Aye there is. If you're not good enough to win your league you are not good enough to be given any further opportunity to be promoted. You can quote figures about how it's not about Clydebank all you want but for you and the other Clydebank fans it is clearly about Clydebank and your frustration about not being able to win the league and thereafter climb the ladder. Your team will get up in time but for now stop trying to gerrymander a route for yourselves.

When's Gall leaving?

Hi Everyone, Results from this week’s fixtures (4th May) were;- Clydebank 2 v 1 St. Cadoc's Darvel 4 v 3 Irvine Meadow XI Rutherglen Glencairn 0 v 1 Shotts Bon Accord Ardrossan Winton Rovers 5 v 4 Caledonian Locomotive Ardeer Thistle 1 v 1 Bellshill Athletic Royal Albert 0 v 1 Newmains United Current standings are;- Wk 40 Score Correct Scores Total 1. dagane 14 17 507 2.

The nameless tim 13 10 375 19. BC63 10 5 311 Highest weekly score so far is dagane – 37 (Week 14) It's supposed to be silly season for the results in matches so we can blame a low scoring week on that. However, @coolerking83 bucked that trend with a healthy 21 points with @Shannon notching up 19 and @coineanach and @Dean Learner bagging 18 each, which sees the latter climb to second place. That was also due to some very ill timed forgetfulness. I never like to point at posters for doing this as we've all done it but it means that, although technically possible, it would take a highly improbable last week of scoring to topple @dagane from the top spot. It looks like the battle is really for the remaining podium spots. Let's make sure we all put in a set of predictions and see what transpires. Check your scores please. Fixtures for Saturday 11th May are;- Arthurlie v Beith Juniors Kirkintilloch Rob Roy v Largs Thistle Neilston v Thorniewood United Craigmark Burntonians v Bonnyton Thistle Kello Rovers v Lesmahagow Juniors Lugar Boswell Thistle v Glenvale There they are in all their glory. The final round of fixtures. Good luck everyone!
