Granny Danger Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I see. Where's the sporting integrity in that? I take it you're not being serious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beermonkey Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 This should be banned. I've never been in favour of clubs switching games to other venues to cash in. You should have to play your home fixtures at your home ground unless special dispensation is granted (i.e. when Celtic played Gretna away from Fir Park, because it's a slag heap) Agreed, if their ground only holds 1500 then just sell 1500 tickets. What's to stop st mirren (just for arguments sake) switching a league game against celtic, to ibrox just to "maximise revenue" ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Leitch Loyal Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 What's wrong with Glebe Park? It's for "security reasons". The game at Kelty Hearts has been made all-ticket. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tourette Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Yeah! Like Sarah O and Julyan Sinclair... Fuckin hell! I'd forgotten about them. What a cringefest that show was. Fans on "the terracing" and all. Maybe it can be revived with chico and traynor. that will surely be about their level of credibility now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE KING Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Anyone know what the knock-on economic effects of ZombieH*ns being in the 4th tier will be on Stranraer (the town) and on Stena Line / P&O ? could tip us into a global recession. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyderspaceman Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 A bit rich coming from a supporter of the team playing in Ayrshire's biggest shitehole. Aha! So you admit there are several shiteholes in Ayrshire? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I hate the fact clubs can shift their grounds in cases like that. I can understand it in certain circumstances where grounds are really unsuitable, for example, non-league meeting an SPL club in the Scottish cup, but all league grounds should be able to cope with all other teams in the Scottish league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Brechin, and apparently Brechin have contacted Dundee about hiring out Dens Park for the game against Sevco. Source? This mornings release on the Brechin website: The Club has now received confirmation from The Scottish Football League and Tayside Police that the Ramsdens Cup tie with Rangers will be held at Glebe Park, Brechin on Saturday 28th July with a 3.00 pm kick off. Ticket sale arrangements and will be announced here on Wednesday 18th July. I like the way they stuck the word 'Brechin' in there just to crush any other theories.

Help Ma Boab Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I hate the fact clubs can shift their grounds in cases like that.

Indeed. So if Brechin meet Sevco in a future league game, will they ask to move it to Dens? Somehow i don't think so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrismcarab Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Ah, how i'm going to miss this thread.....I head off for my holidays tonight safe in the knowledge that Sevco Scotland will start the season in Division 3 of the SFL and that I have the Dundee derby to look forward to in the season ahead. I can now head off to relax without expecting any real nasty surprises and anything else that happens is likely to be the same as finding loose chips in the bag when you finish your McDonalds......just a little unexpected bonus. However, I am hoping to collect my 'No to Newco' T-shirt from the cheap T shirt shop before I go. It's not for me, it's for the missus. She has no idea what it means, but I figured even the most seething of orcs fuelled up on sangria and cheap local vodka from the all inclusive bar is unlikely to punch someone else's wife, so playing the safety card on this one....both ways. And I don't know if it's been mentioned properly, other that we should all try and make it to see and SFL team in support of the diddy league of gentlemen who helped ensure no stitch up took place, but I have one more suggestion...... Just to ensure that the seething orcs have the happiest of Christmas's can we seriously consider going to support whoever they play on Boxing Day en mass? Can you imagine maybe 6000- 8000 diddy fans all wearing No to Newco T-Shirts singing the old Slade classic in a real show of diddy solidarity? How very very apt...... adios for now amigos!! See you in a fortnight! Edited July 17, 2012 by chrismcarab 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itwiznaeme Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 be funny if sevco get docked points for sectarian singing after 1 game. If many of of their matches are on radio or televised this season they will definitely be docked a few points over those matches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Since it's still 1957 in Brechin The Newco hordes' tradtional songs will only be outmoded by eighty years or so. Should make them feel slightly more proud as their shell suits flap in the summer breeze. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Shame I've already got holidays planned up north next week. I was rather looking forward to a couple of thousand drunken thugs invading all of the pubs and singing tedious pish like "no one likes us, we don't care". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Hopefully the SFL and SFA make it clear to clubs that they are not allowed to switch home games against Rangers to a larger ground unless there are exceptional circumstances. If there are security concerns about Rangers fans travelling en masse to small towns, then there should just be an outright ban on Rangers fans at away games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
