Yes, I remember that, Peasy had the bus booked and announced the time for its departure at the game v us. Then the fixture disappeared and neither side knew why, and both teams were idle that evening. Bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you're meaning when you say that, but surely clubs can't hang onto the status of "we're a top flight team" forever ? Shotts Bon Accord were winning the Scottish Junior Cup only five years ago and were promoted that season to the Super Premier League, but are now relegated to the Central District League. At the end of the day, there are currently only 12 places in the top flight, and over the past few years we have had Petershill, Cumnock, Rob Roy, Glenafton, Hurlford, Pollok, Beith, Kilwinning, Largs, Troon, Clydebank, Shettleston and Irvine Meadow all in the Super First Division, and other former top flight teams have fallen through to the District Leagues like Bellshill, Johnstone Burgh and Lanark United. The status of "we're a top flight team" is earned on the pitch, and it looks likely that Clydebank will justify that tag, but possibly not Meadow this year. Meadow were working on an unsustainable financial model which resulted in them almost going out of business, so for me their co-managers have done a very good job this season to stabilise the team in what is a very difficult league to climb out of at the top, but a very easy league to fall out of at the bottom.

I think it could've been possible yes although the lack of consistency was a worry. However the new guys haven't really brought anyone in - indeed the squad is smaller now. Anyhoo we are where we are and the new guys deserve our support and they've certainly presided over a great run recently and put us in a great position - so that must be lauded wholeheartedly.
