BB_Bino Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I've now been to 2 LL games this season (Edinburgh City v Gretna and the latest was Cumbernauld Colts v East Kilbride last weekend) and I have to say, from them both, I would be surprised if any of the LL sides have anything to offer in the short term. I would imagine over the years the gap between the top of the LL and the bottom of League 2 will become smaller but I would fancy any SPFL 2 side against any of those 4 teams in a 2 Leg Play Off.

ShawfieldAggro Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Shouldn't you be more concerned with the fortunes of Mixu the fucking Honeymonster?? Not quite so funny as shitey auld Clyde tumbling, i'd imagine....mind you it'd cheer me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite so funny as shitey auld Clyde tumbling, i'd imagine....mind you it'd cheer me up. I am concerned as the next Arab with our prediciment, I do thik that Jackie getting binned was the best option for the club, however the managerial appointment did not cover us in glory, time will tell if Mixu can get up lifted off the anchor of the Premier, I am not saying what a few Arabs are saying and that it is a false position, we have been rank and deserve to be bottom, Mixu has his work cut out for him and I have (some) faith that the board know what they are doing. As for Clyde, they still have their former OF inept manager.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacGafraidh Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Well you did ask... My interest in this merely to see if someone will fall through the trap door, as a campaigner for the pyramids far back as 1994 when ICT and Ross County had to be elected in I see this as a good thig for Scottish football as a whole. As stated previously the dross will flush down the drain and others will take the place of those who have faltered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawfieldAggro Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Or it may rejuvenate clubs who respond to their boot up the arse. I don't see why not, plenty of clubs have slipped into what is now league1 and returned heathier than ever.......Thistle, Ross, Raith, Queens and Morton spring to mind. The farcity was the fact that it appeared to be imposed on clubs who clearly don't want national level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacGafraidh Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 That could be said aout Brora but I know that Ed City, Spartans, Cove wold all take promotion if they were good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLights Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 What is the deal if Cove win the league this season? http://www.coverangersfc.com/news/latest-news-club-licencing/ The link above from earlier in the months indicates they are progressing with the new stadium but I can't see how it'll be ready in time for next season. I'd assume the Lowland League winner would go straight into the play off against the team who finish bottom of League Two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted October 20, 2015 Author Share Posted October 20, 2015 Others groundshare (e.g. East Stirlingshire/Stirling Uni/BSCG/Cumbernauld), and as Cove's finally licensed too they're presumably eligible to go up? Suggestion on FitbaNorth they'd move to solely sharing Inverurie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 Bump. Few weeks since I last updated this. In the intervening period Brora has reclaimed their place at the summit of HL - albeit with a couple of games more played than Cove Rangers - while in LL the steady march of Stirling Uni has continued... Berwick Rangers, who everyone will agree are too big to go down (which is also unthinkable), plunged to the foot of SPFL2...
