cfor56 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Weather update - East Stirlingshire and Civil Service Strollers are in communication with regards to tomorrow’s Scottish Lowland league match. Both clubs want to give the match every opportunity to go ahead and have agreed to monitor the conditions overnight with an inspection likely early tomorrow hopefully around 10.30am. Updates when we have information via @TheShireFC on twitter. Any idea of the state of the pitch just now? Is it a water issue after all the rain this week? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Monaco and Derry City ? All those teams mentioned play in their home town/city. The original post re French team playing in Annan, Glasgow team playing in Alloa etc ,was that those teams don't.

luggy Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Easy win for the shire today bolo appears to have made us a lot harder to score against. CSS number 9 must have been delighted to finally get sent off as that appeared to be his only goal today. Must have a game he doesn’t fancy next week! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlansHotBath Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Good win today, against a team we've had poor results against in the past couple of games 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfor56 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Good result on a difficult pitch where the ball didn't roll at all. The defence was well marshalled by a vocal Bolo who brings experience and stability. Didn't understand why css number 9 felt the need to be needlessly aggressive throughout the game as he deservedly got sent off and his team are then another player short. Nae brains.

Who knows maybe longer term there might be for teams and not just Edusport but it seems the LL is getting stronger by the season anyway despite so called poor attendances....... At the end of the day as frustrated as you guys are it's not shit crowds that have put you where you are today unfortunately..... Edusport shouldn't be a Lowland club, but they achieved promotion in accordance with the current pyramid rules, which doesn't take "attendances" into consideration. Nor should it. If a West of Scotland 'senior' league had existed or been set up within the pyramid, Edusport would not have won promotion to the LL, and the future of the 'Shire Ground Saga' would have remained as a key (and important) issue in this thread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Bit gutted I will miss the friendly on Sat at Kelty Hearts due to working (unless a miracle happens). Years and years since I've seen a game there. Hopefully there will be a reasonable amount of Shire fans who make the short trip. Although our home support this season is down on 2016/17 there is still a decent % of the Shire support who go to away games. There was 40ish away fans at Civil Service Strollers on Saturday past. The supporters club do a great job of running a bus to nearly every away game. Yes the novelty of new away trips after years and years of going to the same few venues was, along with the attacking football, a big draw for our travelling support last season. So it has been good that although the level of regular support has decreased a bit in 2017/18 a lot still wish to travel to watch us play. There were some seasons when we played in the Scottish League when we only took a car load to some games and I vividly remember being the only Shire fan away at Berwick Rangers maybe 20 years ago for a Saturday league game with the Berwick fans singing to me "are you the only fan". So personally I'm happy that a lot more of us my want to travel and watch us play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this will be an excellent warm up Tough to call as no doubt both sides will want to give game time to players coming back from injury and such. But both sides will be going for a win Looking forward to trying out the social Edited November 30, 2017 by holme 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
