  1. My band are going to be releasing our first EP this next month or two. This is one of the tracks off it.
  2. My local amateur team, Lochgilphead Red Star, resigned from the Scottish Premier AFA a few weeks back. I haven't spoken directly to anyone involved about it, but I understand from speaking to people around and about that it boiled down to the two main threats to a club's existence - people to run the club after those that had been doing so took a step back, and people to turn up to play, especially following the loss of some players over the summer. There was also the issue of Red Star going from the weak SAFL where they were strong to the top division of the new set-up and finding themselves losing heavily a few times in the opening games. That led to occasions where a team could not be raised. All of the above compiled led to the decision to fold for 2023-24. Tarbert had taken time out from the SAFL a few years back and tried to come back last season without luck. They switched to the Greater Glasgow set-up and seem to be doing ok for now. I understand Red Star will return, but where?
  3. Prayers answered and a text version was provided:
  4. They might be giants... but we are Scotland.
  5. I have no idea if this is parody. That is where we are in Scottish football
  6. where are Le CB Edusport playing in 23-24 or has the French Connection hit the buffers?
  7. Not sure current rules but new members often have to wait a few years for voting rights.

  9. I would have thought Stranraer's SoS side to be fairly stable. They use a separate squad of players and unlike the 1st team, use local players - all of whom are amateurs. Especially using Stranraer Academy's facilities rather than Strair Park, I would imagine the costs are no more a challenge than for Wigtown to play.
  10. 30 grand a week for years to keep this quiet (and even then it was an open secret).
  11. To the part-time SPFL clubs: you grasping leeches. Engage with your community and fundraise, attract sponsors. Do what the 200 clubs below have to do. If we can do it, so can you, you cancerous bulge suffocating our game. Elsewhere I see Celtic B's Corr has made the first step towards international honours by signing for Raith Rovers
  12. To the Johnstone fans... you have taken a key player from us, with two years on his contract, paid a fee and made an offer too good to refuse when he was already in receipt of an offer from us that was very good... how is this sustainable on the limited means of clubs in our set-up?
  13. you will get what you want on Soccerway but not sure about filter https://uk.soccerway.com/national/scotland/play-offs-23/20212022/s20160/final-stages/ change year in top right
  14. they were also very loyal to last season's side, a good number of whom were there a good while already.
  15. aye I assumed there was a Perth connection somewhere - I know he was with St Johnstone when he was younger but didn't know if that was a maintained connection. He and his brother have Edinburgh links and his brother ex Mussey yeah?
  16. What's the script with Charlie King quitting Tynecastle on 14th March (immediately replaced by assistant Robert Hart) and popping up at Scone Thistle a week later?
