GordonS Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 4 hours ago, gogsy said: I could understand that viewpoint if it was still 2010. Without wanting to be partisan, since Linlithgow Rose won three Junior Cups and were runner up twice between 2002 and 2013, Mussy are the the only east club to have made the final. In that time Bonnyrigg have only got past the last 16 once. It's hardly "jewel in crown" territory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th1stleandr0se Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Any players out there? If you were offered terms by a Lowland League team like Civil Service Strollers or Whitehill Welfare or a former Junior Superleague team such as Linlithgow or Bonnyrigg Rose in the lower-tier East of Scotland League would it be prestige or money which would influence your decision? Decisions like this could be crucial to the teams involved because, up till now, I believe players would have seen the Junior Superleague teams as on a par with Lowland League teams and the prestige element would have been equivalent. If those same players now say that they're not going to play in a lower league we could find that recruitment could be a problem for the former Superleague teams especially if the narrow doorway up to the Lowland League means that some of those teams spend a few seasons in the lower tier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the on pitch success things appear (from the outside) to be looking less than rosy at Musselburgh, manager leaving, players leaving in their droves and rumours of money troubles. Clown in charge been at it for years. Why players would even consider signing for him raises doubts about their intelligence to be honest. Players months behind on wages/ Manager also with little chance of receiving the funds and its all down to one man. I am amazed that this has not be raised at a more senior level years before now, sad times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few smaller LL sides pay wages. CSS are proudly amateur. So long as the ex Juniors do, they'll always hold a trump card.

And for all the talk of the pyramid and getting rid of the glass ceiling, the LL clubs, for self-preservation reasons, are sticking to one up one down. It'll be a gey few years before the top clubs are at the top rather than this hotchpotch of random clubs currently occupying the top places in the non-league pyramid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slaverysam Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 So that's it done and dusted, for the present at least. Next seasons EOSL will be a great place to be and I'm guessing there may very well be increased national media interest which will benefit all. So all the scare mongering can cease, you guys in the East that wanna stay get on with what's left the rest of you do whatever it is you do.A HUGE onward and upwards, exciting times....... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
