  1. There was close to 400 there that day including about 100 away fans. Not a bad support at this level. Work is due to start on a new 4000 seat stadium next year. Only another 3600 fans to find[emoji51]



    very very ambitious, how exactly do they plan to fill it haha

    Good highlights - terrible music!!

    What kind of crowds to east Stirling get now compared to last season out of interest?

    Our crowds have definitely decreased since last season. Can't really find any actual figures for this season, but its around 150, compared to 300-350 average last season.

  3. In the interests of balance I would say that I haven't heard any such talk (of winning the league by a large margin).  EK finished 5th last season and lost their top scorer (Jack Smith) to Stenhousemuir and one of their best midfielders (Anton Brady) to Queens Park).

    Monies gained from the Scottish cup run should have given them a large boost in terms of trying to bring in better players but let's be honest they haven't exactly signed Lionel Messi.  I personally wouldn't see failure to get promotion as a disaster.  It's tough to win the LL then beat HL winners over two legs and then beat a team already in league 2 but we've now seen (courtest of EC) that it's possible.

    The clip posted via Youtube by EKFCtv was the first time I've heard the new manager speak and he didn't appear to cross any lines in terms of disrespecting his opponents.  

    I personally expected East Stirlingshire to be favourites for the title although a big part of that feeling was keeping together a squad who have been used to playing at league 2 level.  There was little between the teams on Saturday as there wasn't in most of our games against Edinburgh City last season and at this level you only have to lose a couple of key players and you're vulnerable to anyone.  That in essence is one of the reasons I've been enjoying the LL so much albeit EC ran away with the title last season.



    4 of our starting 11 played with us last year, one of which a keeper who played half a season and another who was basically a reserve player and never played. Hardly keeping a league 2 squad together, is it?
  4. I'm going on the 21st. I don't mind the ABC. Seen some good gigs in there.



    Only been there once mind you, never had any bother just no really a fan ae the layout of the place. Will still be unreal none the less.
  5. Hardly creaming was actually comparing yous to other Junior teams in the area.

    If ye want me to be petty a dozen adults singing  songs in front of aboot 100 folk does seem a wee bit odd [emoji3]



    It's aw about enjoying yerself, is it no? We're no trying to impress a few old duffers.
