AsimButtHitsASix Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Forgive my ignorance if I'm showing it but the top of the EoS league doesn't seem to different from the bottom of the Lowland League but the gap between SoS and Lowland seems sizeable. Is this the case? What's the hope/chances of bridging it anytime soon? Are there any clubs in the SoS that could go on and be comfortable in the tier above (or beyond)?

Doink Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 The East will always be stronger as they can recruit players from a much higher population. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 There have been wins for SOSL clubs over LL clubs in cups - but no-one has a particularly formidable record. Leaving aside results against Threave, who are now back in SOSL, you have got... Wigtown, who have beaten Dalbeattie twice and Vale once, giving the best record; Newton Stewart who have beaten Dalbeattie twice, one being on penalties; St Cuthbert and Edusport who have each beaten Dalbeattie once; Abbey Vale who beat BSCG; and Threave back in SOSL this season who beat Vale. It's not been on the same scale as EOSL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aguerooooo Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 You will be able to judge for yourself assimbutt if and when Wigtown and bladnoch get promotion from ssfl Their is talk that Wigtown are not going through with promotion to the Lowland League if they win the South League? What punishment will they receive for that?I can understand it would cripple them financially if they were to be promoted, look at Threave Rovers they couldn't sustain the Lowland League financially either. Will they lose their remaining games which would let Edu win the League. I'm sure they are licensed so could be promoted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one really knows the answer to either of your two questions for sure...I know a number of the clubs in the south are unsure of the Lowland League... There are a number of potential punishments so it's really tough to speculate! Also would be a matter for the LL/SoSFL AND(!!) the SFA...I know the boys though and I'm certain the title will be all they are looking at with the intention to look at the consequences if/when they comeAnd finally - Wigtown, Saints and Edu - are all licensed teams!
