dk81130 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 St Rochs will be up there and I think Wishaw as well. Twood also not bad as well . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenconner Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Who's coming down to join us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#10 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Shotts straight back up for me, interesting to see who else comes down with them out of maryhill and yoker and will the 3 keep the bulk of their teams?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playsuptop Posted June 2, 2017 Author Share Posted June 2, 2017 After the season Glasgow Perthshire have had, they must fancy it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenconner Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Noticed Yoker (no bar) got beat 6-0 yesterday. Are Yoker relegated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBENS Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Unfortunately for them, yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenconner Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 So if three teams come down and two go up that means it will be a 28 game season rather than 26 games this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBENS Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Correct, and every team will have a free week at some point during the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mon The Port Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 If perthshire have kept their squad I'd tip them to be up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottMcCorry Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 St Roch's first. Going to be a very important summer. Missing out on promotion was a body blow, maybe with hindsight, its in the best interest of the club as a whole...but still to be in the position and fail, its sore. I expect a few to depart and be replaced. Maybe some fringe players may not be replaced. So i cant really guess how we will shape up just now. I would think that the managers expectations are to be in with a shout, but i don't see us being labelled joint favourites as we were last summer (with McBookie). Maybe a more understated squad than last year. Of the teams coming up, my limited experience in these leagues, have shown that confidence and lack of, is massive. Blantyre Vics and Cambuslang have both bounced out of the districts leagues in 2 seasons...so aligned with their win over Cambuslang, i expect Perthshire to be in the running at least. I think Port Glasgow will be looking to stabilise in mid table, whilst i think EK will struggle. Of the current clubs Rossvale always seem a club in transition. Are they finally moving to Huntershill this season? A good set up means i dont think they can be discounted, but hot and cold...unless they sign well in the summer, i think another season on the outskirts. Thorniewood seem another club rebuilding. Wishaw were one of my picks to challenge last season and should do again. An those coming down...saw Yoker first hand in the cup at the end of the season....i saw a strong if somewhat limited team, but what will relegation do to the squad. Dont know anything about Shotts and Blantyre Vics were playing with a limited squad for most of last season, and relegation could see them lose some more bodies. Like so many in this league, really unknown quantities until the latter stages of the summer break. I'll guess an say Vics will get it right and challenge, whilst Yoker and Shotts will be mid table. That's that for my totally uneducated mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taxman Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 If we can keep the bulk of our squad for next season then I'm sure we'll go straight back up but at this stage of the season we're still in with a shout for the Central League Cup, big improvement needed from last Saturday if we get to the final though, Peasies humped us.
