tamthebam Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Clyde's form is rotten- could be double trips to Cumbernauld next season. I bet you can't wait to welcome those fun loving Clyde supporters to your grounds.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenryHill Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I didn't realise you could get relegated from the LL. Well that means we'll just be passing through next season. Good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitburn Vale Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Sure can HH,the next stop down is the East of Scotland league or the South of Scotland league,all depends on where your based and if either the East or South champions are licensed.Currently Preston Athletic are bottom of the LL and are heading for a return to the East of Scotland league. Wigtown currently lead the SoS league and are licensed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Indeed. If the leagues finished today and Cowdenbeath lost the playoff then LL 2017-18 would comprise:BSC Glasgow Civil Service StrollersCowdenbeath Cumbernauld Colts Dalbeattie Star East Kilbride / Selkirk (depending if EK had won or lost in the playoffs) East Stirlingshire Edinburgh University Gala Fairydean Rovers Gretna 2008 Hawick Royal Albert Spartans Stirling University Vale of Leithen Whitehill Welfare Wigtown & Bladnoch Cowdenbeath could then suffer a doubly historic fourth consecutive relegation if they then finished in the bottom 1 or 2 places in LL 2017-18. They would drop to EOSL. Bottom in LL can be relegated even if neither EOSL or SOSL champion is licensed - if someone south of the Tay is relegated from SPFL2 while HL champion is promoted.

HenryHill Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Wigtown and bladnoch. There's a team name. Don't think cowden will exist next season but if we do this LL sounds a carry on for a change. Would be good to catch up with the Shire as well. Always liked those boys. Do all LL teams have floodlights and play midweek? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do all LL teams have floodlights and play midweek? They're all "committed" to having them...will all be in place eventually. I'd be surprised if you didn't survive into next season HH. There's a decent parachute payment in year 1 to help (£40k AFAIK?), not sure about the ins and outs of it afterwards. Just need to cut cloth, start again with a more meagre budget and get moving on. You might even enjoy becoming a winning team again like the Shire boys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimmo's Notes Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Always hoped to draw either Wick Academy or Wigtown and Bladnoch, away, when it came to the Scottish Cup, so it's great, barring an East Kilbride collapse, to have a trip to Wigtown next season. Might even pop into Bladnoch for a pint. The most enjoyable thing for me, about Shire's time in the Lowland League, is all the great away trips and having new teams to play. Like playing in the first round of the Scottish each week. If Cowden do come down then at least we'll get to go to the Goth again, great pub. It won't be the end of the world down here, just have to gear up for it and has already been said, cut your cloth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do all LL teams have floodlights and play midweek? At the moment 12 of the 16 clubs have floodlights. Over the years there have been press reports about most or all of the others getting them but only Dalbeattie have since LL started IIRC. There are midweek cards early in the season (having looked it up there were 2 in August and 1 in October this year); and of course to catch-up postponed games though unlike SPFL there are back-up weekends in March too - there only appear to be 5 midweek games this spring. Of course there are only 30 league games, although there are extra cups. There's the South Challenge Cup embracing LL, EOSL & SOSL - plus one local cup (which some clubs who groundshare don't seem to enter). It's worth saying that Wigtown & Bladnoch have not yet won SOSL - they could be caught by Edusport Academy or St Cuthbert Wanders, both also licensed. They're clear favourites, though.

All white. Called the diamond. Big telly. Not the same. It was always about the friendly cheap shadowy dank in the goth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimmo's Notes Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Shocker! Reminds me of a Montrose trip a few years back. Deciding which pub to go to first, my mate said, "we'll try the Duke of Montrose.......if it's still called the Duke of Montrose" I replied, "It was the Duke of Montrose 30 years ago and it will be the Duke of Montrose in 30 years time" So we got there and it was called " Ash".
