  1. [emoji106] I still say a visit to Innerleithen is better than Peffermill or Forthbank though. All about opinions and I hope you do well this season. Be good to ruffle up the usual suspects [emoji57]
    I've never forgiven the LL for relegating Whitehill.

    You're right. Peffermill, Broadwood, Forthbank and Edusport's souless cage are worse days out.

    I just believe all clubs will find their level, this reshuffling isnt a bad thing
  2. Pretty sure the Vale players will be loving the ignorant and disrespectful comments above. Hopefully the innocent East Stirling players aren’t on the end of a dull one when the teams next meet.

    Already happened. Straight red for a bad one on Gibbons at the weekend.

     

    Nothing disrespectful, they're out of their league and need to find their level. As do Gretna, Edinburgh Uni and others

     

    And as we did in League 2

  3. I actually don't want relegation this year unless its Edinburgh Uni finishing bottom. Would like to go to Vale of Leithen before they inevitably go down. 
    You're not missing anything. VOL are fortunate to still be in the league and will continue to struggle
  4. hahaha i'm not complaining. I certainly don't think anyone seen today coming. I seen a photo of the pitch and i'm still unsure how its possible to score 7 goals on that heap of shite. Exactly what we needed though. Clean sheets are great but we weren't exactly capitalizing in the goals scored department - especially considering who we have played. Now in the best position we've ever been in in the LL but it all counts for nothing if we don't beat Bonnyrigg next week. 
    Hopefully they get relegated and we wpmt have to play on it again
  5. I was with Oakley United for a few years, tried to give my time and my support for the club. Loved it. great bunch of guys. hard working, did everything for the team, for the club.

    My son moved to Kelty Hearts - I followed him. There for nearly 8 years. To say that the crazzee bunch of committee dudes were hard working, single minded for the club, sweat blood for the club ... is nowhere near the real effort, time and love they have and give for KHFC.  truly amazing.

    To say it was fantastic there, loved every minute.. heart and soul for the club .. understatement. some of the best years of my life ... I think my son's also.

    He moved to Bo'ness United last season .. I followed him.

    The committee .. exactly the same as Oakley and Kelty... hard working, give their time and effort to the club. simply put: they love their club.

    For me? probably the honesty of the three clubs that makes me feel a part of them. Yes, and my son being part of the setup is a major.

    Do I feel a genuine affiliation for Bo'ness, yes. most definitely ...and for the above reasons.

    I am a very pedantic and, hopefully all that know me agrees, truthful person. 

    I cannot "support" a team part time. Hope they do "ok" enjoy the wins but slide away from the losses.  This is not me.

    I need to feel I am part of the club. How can I help them? I love speaking with the players, attempting to encourage and , if possible, maybe give them some help, a wee tip or trick. For they are the heart and soul of the club.

    I support Bo'ness United because of who they are, how they go about there business, the committee, the defo mental and very knowledgeable fans..... and because my son plays for them.

    To specifically answer your question: I KNOW Kelty Hearts will win the league this year. They are too strong, too much pace, experience and quality throughout the team not to.  My thoughts are with them.

    Have I forgotten all my time at KHFC ... if you know who I am, then ask my fellow members of the Kelty Hearts Ultras, who indecently, sponsor my son. Ask them.

    To recap: I am unsure if you were asking an honest question or merely mischief making. Either way, I hope my explanation gives you what you were after. I have been as honest as I can. 

    you have a good evening Darkness.

     

    Should change your name to OUKHBU_Brian.

     

    Also EK are the team to beat. Kelty suffering without Fash

     

  6. Spartans twitter moaning about another refereeing  decision tonight. [emoji2]
    Edit for lolz
    89 mins: Taylor-MacKenzie nets from the spot to give Gala a 3-1 lead. The Gaffer is incensed and he’s shown a yellow.
    The guy is a melt
  7. The last time we won our opening 3 games of the season.
    What a team. So many great days that season, still can't believe we ended up finishing 8th after the start we had, its actually a shame that the players chucked it as soon as we fell out of the playoffs because we certainly were better than our 8th place suggests. A lot of 'what if?' moments that year that could've changed not only the clubs season but the clubs future.  
    Michael Bolo. What a player

  8. I can’t find any official live streams and there has been no word from the club. Which is pretty poor. Ekfctv put out a highlights package after game.
    With things as they are i thought they would have had a stream in place.
    Should be a 10 point deduction!

    Wait, we'll need it to be 15!
  9. Hi Self A. Unsure where you are heading with this one when all that was asked was where the 6 first team players were on Saturday.
    Money to the side, of the 6 players that we were referring to, 5 are injured, Fact and the other was suspended... again another fact.
    are we good?
    take care.
    Injured or "injured"
  10. Maybe the players have opted for that until we are out of this current situation.  
    With very little income in an uncertain foreseeable future most clubs will be in similar position so it’s maybe a bit blunt to say “they are not paying them” .
    Just word on the street.


    Or streets, cause that's what everyone is saying.

    It came from the players too [emoji102][emoji102][emoji102][emoji102][emoji102]
  11. I think realistically newky is right, the chances of this season being finished (unless they elongate it into next season) are shrinking and shrinking.
    But ignoring that - I also think Kelty will win the league again. They were the best team last season and they look to have strengthened this season.
    As for Shire, I've no idea. I think we look like a better team than last year, and I'm also happy with a lot of the signings we've made. I dont see us catching Kelty, but I'm hopeful of us being able to put up a better challenge this year. 
    EK will be better, how much more so I dont know. There's always the danger they could end up with a few signings like we had last year, very good in concept but couldn't really be arsed.
    BSC and Bonnyrigg also in the top 5, Bonnyrigg are probably still the best of the rest and have the advantage, as last year, of having a settled, very experienced team. BSC will get over the loss of their front line without too much trouble, I think.
    I dont see anyone in the rest of the league breaking into that top 5, a lot of decent sides in there but not really enough consistency to keep up imo.  
    I'll pick Vale to be relegated, but it would funny if they somehow wriggled out of the drop again, and the posters on here who have a weird obsession with having them punted from the league lost the plot.
    All in all, I am very much looking forward to Saturday afternoon, and best of luck to everyone ahead of the season. Hopefully we can all make it through relatively unscathed.
    Oh yeah, and does anyone want to predict who the first team are that will fake a Covid scare in order to have a game postponed? 
    Classic junior tactic there.

    100% Bonnyrigg Rose, only if its a home game though
  12. Some mad duds on the Lowland League podcast saying Berwick Rangers are dark horses this year. Not sure what for, probably the knackers yard. 
    Top five in no particular order East Kilbride, Kelty, the big Rose, Bo'ness and BSC (despite their many disciplinary problems).
    I think Bo'ness will flop and they wont get top half.

    Kelty Shire EK BSC Rose top 5

    VOL and Dalbettie or Edi Uni to go down or be saved by no covid relgations, with VOL getting less than 20 points all season

    SPFL will find a way to save Brechin from the play-offs again.

    The record LL win will be beaten this season.

    The darkhorses of Berwick will over-achieve and finish 10th this season
