    Having a hoodie and big jacket on on the last day of April is weirdo behaviour from Klopp

    Picking your clothes based on the calendar rather than the weather makes so much more sense.

    What a session that was. 

    Superb viewing.

    As good a session as you'll see. Have to admit, I loved that long plant in the last frame... And he still lost it.

    we took some awful hidings in that 5 years  came up against a defensively superb Stevenage the first season   woeful the 2nd  Crawley and Fleetwood were big money teams compared  to us in the following years   great bit of business regarding Andre Grey among others    the knocking  out of Norwich was the best game i have experienced that includes Celtic beating Real in 1980 and Love St 86

    I knew Stevenage would come into this thread as soon as it became a shit town debate. How Peterborough have stayed on the bench this long I don't know.

    Harry Kane's Norwich, I'll remind you ;) i'd go for that Oxford game as the highlight of the wilderness years. Better than getting beat by Braintree anyway.

    Mid Table   if no points deducted and if League 2 is shite hen the conference is horrible

    It's pretty obvious with the 30 point deduction that it means winning 10 games (or getting points from draws) just to get started on chasing down the other teams. What quickly also became obvious is, you're gonna see visiting teams coming to waste time right from the first whistle to hang on to a draw. The conference was great compared to that.

    When they got relegated out the league the tears and snotters rivaled anything you saw at castle grayskull from old co. 

    If they'd had a decent manager that season they would have stayed up they had the players to band league 2 is shite at the best of times. 

    Interesting take on it as the club started with a 30 point deduction and a last day rush to get a bunch of loan players in once the embargo was lifted. And you'd be hard pushed to find anyone at the club with a negative word to say about that manager.

    If Luton go up it could ruin them, if they chase the dream. 

    They need to spend millions to make Kennilworth Road usable as a ground even for a couple of seasons, the place is an absolute shit hole of a ground. It has a second hand wooden main stand that you'd question using as firewood, the away end involves a bird's-eye view of the neighbours garden and the ground itself is based in an area of the town best described by estate agents as  "in need of some TLC"

    They have grand plans for power court (a disused industrial park in the centre of the town that they have bought up) however it seems to be dragging on at a glacial pace despite it being in absolutely everyone's interest to make this happen ASAP. 

    They have more than a few knuckle draggers in their support and they are not a cuddly friendly plucky side, these people have a sense of entitlement about them. 

    However, if they go up, don't spend a penny and live the dream for a season before plummeting straight back down the parachute money could keep them going for years.  

    Not in everyone's interests. Capital & Regional, owners of the mall in the town centre, fought to prevent it, particularly Newlands Park. Thankfully they're gone.

    Laughing at the idea of Luton having a sense of entitlement though. It's been a running joke since they start moving back up the leagues the number of opposing managers/ players/ supporters who come away with the catchphrase they should be beating "teams like Luton".

    the records will show, IF Beith win the league then history will show that the EOSFL supplied their champions to the Lowland league at the expense of the WOSFL & SOSFL champions.

    I never said it was anyone's expense in the west, that's the problem that's your quoting, never have. 

    Give it a rest.

    Don't think your getting it, don't think of the individual teams. At the end of the day, history will show that the EOSFL supplied a team that was promoted at the expense of the WOSFL 2 years running, which looks like Tranent last year and Linlithgow this year

    Well, I don't agree that it would be at anyone in the west's 'expense' unless someone actually lost out. That's all. I'll read all about it in this history book of yours ;) Enjoy your evening.

    ffs Raven, there's no case, I'm not replying saying I'm against you or anyone, I'm just being factual, the records will show, IF Beith win the league then history will show that the EOSFL supplied their champions to the Lowland league at the expense of the WOSFL & SOSFL champions.   

    You even had someone make direct comments to me calling names when he is the one who is being hypothetical and the facts were different to what he spouted, making him look to everyone else like a...... well leave it for everyone else to decide what

    It wouldn't be 'at the expense of the WOSFL champions', if they weren't licensed and therefore eligible for the playoff.

    And no, I never had anyone calling you anything.

    lololool,  the history books will show that the EOSFL champions were promoted to the Lowland league and the WOSFL champions were not, and also the SOSFL champions were not either, that's exactly what the conversation was about

    Yes, if you word it like that, you don't look like your making up nonsense. Apart from the lololool, of course, which really doesn't help your case.

    You kidding me on, what has history got to do with it if Beith cannot go forwards to the playoff, the guy is making hypothetical reasoning to say that the facts are wrong.  Nearly everyone in the East think if Linlithgow play any WOSFL champion, they think they will win. Same as what Tranent did when they came to play Darvel in last seasons playoff and they won.

    I'm just stating, our WOSFL champions lost out last season to the EOSFL champions who were promoted and again, if Beith win the league then they cannot go any further thus our WOSFl have lost out against to the EOSFL champions who are then promoted.  History will show as such.  Only way it can change is that either Darvel or Auchinleck win the league, (i think the league is between Beith, Darvel and Auchinleck) and they win the playoff then history will show WOSFL champions were promoted to the Lowland league at the EOSFL champions expense

    The history books won't show that anyone 'lost out' in something they weren't eligible to play for.
