Gimme

I was told it hadn't been paid but that the league hadn't invoiced them for it, that was a few weeks ago. I hope they don't return next season as they've added very little with frequent requests to move or postpone fixtures due to clashing priorities (Cup games, friendlies, Under 18's) but have squads of 40+ full time players, it all impacts the other sides in the league who's part time players are burdened with additional work / care issues to try and appease them.

As I understand it the money hadn't been paid a couple of weeks ago, not sure if that's changed.

Yep, and they still attend every home game.

I see the colts game scheduled for this weekend has been moved to 12 April. I can't see either of their games against each other getting played.

Bonnyrigg v Cumbernauld Colts rescheduled to 1 March.

9am pitch inspection ahead of tomorrow's game. There's some light rain falling at the moment but I guess it'll depend what the rest of the day brings.

Gala started better and killed the game early on, a sending off before half time meant a miracle would be needed second half. We just weren't good enough first half, better in the second half but the game was gone by then. Disappointing to lose as you want to win every game and every tournament but we have to look at the bigger picture, we are within touching distance of the league title. That's the one we all want and if offered the choice I'd quite happily take that over further progression in any of the cups.

The postponed league game away to Berwick has been rescheduled to 12 March. Depending on results elsewhere that could be a bumper travelling support.

Pitch inspection 9am at Dalbeattie ahead of tomorrow's fixture.

My basic maths suggests there are 19 games to be rescheduled prior to the end of the season involving 14 clubs. Dalbeattie and Bo'ness are both 5 games behind where they should be, Gala and Stirling Uni 4, Shire and Rangers 3, Bonnyrigg, Celtic, EK, Berwick, Caley Braves and Gretna 2 and Cumbernauld and Vale with 1 to catch up.

Presumably the league games that do need rescheduled are being fitted into March first (Bonnyrigg have an away game at Berwick and home game against Cumbernauld to be played) and these ties will slot in around them?

9:30am pitch inspection at Arthurlie, what's the weather been like through there today?

I'm reasonably sure there is no requirement for seating, all that's required is an entry level licence and that just needs cover for 100. Even the Bronze award for grounds looks like it only needs cover for 500 which can be made up of seating or standing. That said plans will be in place for the necessary changes to be made if they are required.

True, but you want to finish top of the pile!

Spartans and East Kilbride can get to 76 points so 9 required to guarantee the play off. Rangers can get to 82 as it stands so 15 required to win the league.

Berwick game on Saturday postponed due to Covid.

It's an accurate report.

It wasn't £10 when Bonnyrigg were there!

Taxi for Max

Cowdenbeath, unless behind the goals is out of bounds during matches.

That the 11 clubs who wanted the Old Firm colts in have given the SFA reason to remove the Highland / Lowland boundary.

Pitch inspection at 9am tomorrow.

After watching them tonight my only question is how have they actually managed to score 5 goals this season.
