You won't be able to continue to pay the wages of your current squad. It all depends on who you'll get in. Looking forward to having a derby again next season.


Hopefully most of this current squad will be booted, absolute shower of shite.

Bit early for the relegation talk at Stirling. 

We are only 2 points above so there's a decent chance our full pelt fall down the leagues may continue.

Anyone of the bottom 6 can end up there, depends who signs who in the transfer window.

Waaaaay too early to be calling this one with any certainty, still three weeks to the window FFS. 

(Preferred scenario would be a winner-takes-all final day shootout at Shielfield with the home side bottling it and falling into the abyss, though)

Not a chance we'd lose, Blair Henderson would shit himself and miss in spectacular style.

No doubt the other clubs in the mix would disagree, but it's good to see Edinburgh City step up to the plate after a very difficult opening quarter.

Particularly as it gets it up the Junior bumpins, who are still seething at the apparent 'joke' competition taking place in the Lowland League. As it stands though, you'd put decent money on East Kilbride following them up into the national level.

I honestly don't think they would disagree in truth. Although they/we obviously don't want to be there, those were the clubs that voted unanimously (along with The Shire) to introduce a pyramid structure, so in some ways it justified the decision that there are clubs out with the league with things to offer.......wether University teams and the likes of BSC Glasgow have, I'm not sure, but there are a fair few with bright futures and I think most people would like to see Edinburgh City doing well.

I also think it would be good for the league for Edinburgh to survive, for to many years there was no punishment for failure, far to many clubs took league status for granted, the Junior angle for me is the interesting one, I just wonder if one will ever take the plunge, I believe whenever one does there could be more, if that is the case we could really see a shake up of our game

B'Jesus the shake up is a commin' and unlikel;y Brora Rangers will make the same balls of the pyramid play-off as a couple of years ago. Been told a cracking new manager lined up and some big named players commin to the club. The junior angle ,gis a break!. Montrose oot and Brora in.
