Thathanka Iyothake Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Back Again ,In my opinion having seen all the East super league teams with exception or Bonnyrigg and Broughty I feel that the our league is full of mediocre teams . Sad to say even as early as October the EAST League appears to be A 2 Horse race. How bad is that for the game ? Although there are EAST teams who will have an extended run in The BIG CUP , I now Predict, that the BIG TROPHY will stay in the WEST ! ( T.I.)

locheedfcno1 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 West team's seem to have bigger budgets? Team's in the east do well just to survive. East used to do really well in Scottish tayport where a force. Lithgow boness and kelty are big teams. My team Lochee knocked out hurlford in the first round this year. Auchinleck the team to beat. Great set up and good fan base. Agree the east is weaker though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Beith and Pollok who are the main men this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanner Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Beith being the holders makes them the team to beat. Pollok? Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Blastie Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Nobody notice KRR......won their last 13 games..........worth a tenner bet I'd say !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossiter blue Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Usual suspects will be mentioned Talbot Pollok Beith from West Kelty Bonnyrigg from the east . I think someone will come out the pack and maybe spring a surprise . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rednblack Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Yes of course. They won the tie they won the game they won the cup. Not had much of a Scottish run last two or three years would be good to change that anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, was just being a dick. teams that win on pens usually have a wee bit of confidence about them so I suppose it says something about their character that they won it. They're the form team, it's still very very early to be suggesting they'll do a Leicester, but best of luck to them trying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rednblack Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Don't think anymore at Rob Roy has said we would do a 'Leicester '.A trophy any trophy and top six finish and wee run in Scottish is a brilliant season for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertha/BJFC1938 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 When in recent times you speak of trying to win the SCOTTISH cup then you need to be at least on a par with Auchinleck Talbot , they've got their mantle for a reason and every club tries to emulate them season after season in the Scottish cup , regardless of them maybe having a few wee bad bits of form of late they're still the role model in the Scottish cup due their excellent amount of wins in it .

Rob Roy definitely have the potential. They are in the same position Troon where last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juniorfootball123 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I fancy one of 3 teams this season: 1) Beith, massive confidence and experience from last seasons campaign. Very difficult to beat at home and a side with a lot of big game experience. 2) Kelty Hearts, fantastic start to the season. A lot of ability within the squad and similar to Beith, top quality experienced players. If it's a team from the East that have a real chance it's them! 3) Rob Roy, don't think they will be consistent enough for the league however with the quality of squad they have I fancy them to beat anyone in a one off game meaning Scottish Cup could suit them. Saying that a lot depends on the luck of the draw, avoiding big teams and even more getting home ties is a massive advantage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think only 2 teams have done it in my lifetime. Kelty is always a threat. It's a cliché at the minute but it is always a tricky visit playing east coast teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
