Yip could just as easy rephrase it by stating it's a bit like the old junior league management committee wi their established community clubs who couldn't see the benefits in front of them lol. Was only trying to reason as to why LL clubs won't open up yet its seen as "havering pish". Hopefully the new regime will get it right and common sense prevails if anything just to keep yoursel Marshy and the Virgin sweet.

Thread title LL general chat right enough. Last time I checked HFL is at tier 5 same as LL. Lets relegate say half a dozen every season from the LL to suit the "stacks" of clubs in the South. You got it right there "stacks" of clubs in the top heavy pyramid. Cant help the countries geography why should the LL open up more relegations when theres no much room for movement from the HFL at the same level? Theres yer stumbling block. Oh such pure whataboutery

I'm sure if any other ambitious clubs in the North got within a sniff of reaching tier 5 on footballing merit there would be some kind of fast track arranged. There are a helluva lot more at tier 6 in the South which every enthusiast knows but this is where the pyramid is unfortunately flawed.

@Marshmallo @virginton Instead of the petty red dots can you answer the question please? A lot of shouting aboot the LL opening up relegation spots (rightly so) can you confirm the HL are doing so this season with the Midlands opening up? Where does their champion club go subject to licensing? It's no just the LL that needs a complete reboot.

Have they got a relegation spot in place up there yet? Aye but a free hit at the play off.

As much as everyone thinks it being down to allowing Colts in the league has anyone thought that the Broomhill split might have something to do with it ?

942 to be exact, Hibs and Hearts playing a day later would've helped but Bonnyrigg always been a big supported footballing toon and i can easily see them getting up to that as an average with or without playing Colts teams.

Not many ww folk were surprised by Saturday's result. What price were Coldstream like? 2 Saturday's on bounce ww would've been coupon busters. Getting back on topic and they're no even worth defending on the park but could it be that Vale have been decimated by having to fund the floodlights or did they get the money from elsewhere?

Who is in the LL self preservation department? The LL have been very quiet since the colts shambles. Has there been any correspondence from clubs regarding the current LL committee recently as to wtf is actually going on? By the way 9/4 was a shite price considering the 4 leagues difference.

Not shocked by ww result a good few chances missed when Coldstream took their chances. Well done the Streamers and a nice local derby to now look forward to. Very best of luck.

South Challenge Cup v Coldstream tomorrow a trophy we have won twice in the past beating Dalbeattie Star and Edinburgh City in both finals. For selfish reasons wouldve preferred the match in Coldstream but then again apparently there are some tasty pies to review. Not really tempted myself.

The outdoor pursuits ruin it as well. Watching them on a trampoline is hardly worthy for a sports quiz.

get it roond ye old pal.

Thanks bud and good to see a few through from Dunbar. A harsh but ref going by book last man sending off. Yer man Miller played very well for us I thought and our big keeper was very steady. Delighted wi the 3 points. Hopefully catch up Dunbar.

No trying to make excuses but having heard from the manager this week the squad is on its arse wi players no being fit. Hopefully cut out silly mistakes and give you a game today.
