Now that there is another team in the spfl that has progressed through the current pyramid and a further 6 clubs granted their sfa licence are you ever going to drop your pyramid bashing? As I've said on another thread, you continue to use one example to display your obviously flawed narrative (that the pyramid is a non starter and someone, somewhere has sold everyone a dead horse), whilst excluding the actual evidence that is right in front of you should you choose to look at it. Here's hoping the west juniors can partake in the coming months/seasons.....id say certain teams, if they are interested in getting to the spfl, would stand a very good chance of getting there and making an impact, just as Edinburgh City have done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on G4Mac ! Cove Rangers FC has set an example to all other ambitious non league clubs, by demonstrating what can be achieved, notwithstanding humble beginnings. According to the club's website, their brief history is as follows : 1922 club formed (almost a century ago) 1922-47 played in the Aberdeen Juvenile League 1947-1985 played in the Aberdeenshire Amateur League 1985-86 played in the North Juniors (for one season only) 1986-2019 played in the Highland League (during which time they had to vacate their ground at Allan Park, as its pitch was too small in size under international regulations) 2018 opened their new Balmoral Stadium 2019 promoted to the SPFL Whilst not personally a Cove supporter, their promotion has demonstrated that the pyramid is working, and it will "come of age" when West Junior clubs achieve "feeder league" status. I fully support and applaud their success. All the best for your SPFL future. Like most genuine football fans, I am of course, sad to see an historic club like Berwick Rangers lose their SPFL status, as I was when East Stirlingshire FC suffered a similar fate. However, if the football folk of Berwickshire get behind the club, it will be successful in the Lowland League. Best wishes for the future ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linlithgow Rose Juniors = Linlithgow Rose CFC Bo'ness United Juniors = Linlithgow Thistle With the real derby almost definitely reinstated on the fixture list again next season this goes from a clever looking ploy to a desperate looking one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since there are some people that believed this was the real Linlithgow and Bo'ness returning with their tails between the legs, i'm sure there will be some fans turning up to games against them thinking the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 If the real Bo'ness United and Linlithgow Rose had went another season with no derby game this might have had some legs. With them both in a very strong looking EoS premier that looks like an East Superleague should it makes the ERSJFA look like a mickey mouse operation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmon the Eos Premier is way ahead of drudgery v Stoneyburn and West Calder etc. The only realistic way they'd have gone another year without their derby is if one was in the LL and the other was not, and even then it'd only be a matter of time before the other got there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackie Gold Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 What's happening about Bonnyrigg not getting into the LL. Will Broxburn or Penicuik be handed the position. Seems shite if teams battled it out for a crack at the LL and then get booted in the bawz. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No licence, no promotion to the LL and only champions can be promoted. The three teams battled it out for the EoS championship title, as the winners of that play in the Scottish Cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackie Gold Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Sorry If I have missed something here as I'm not up to speed with the EOSL rules. I was under the illusion that all senior clubs were a shoe in for the Scottish Cup.

I don't follow senior football and due to us winning our league I was interested to see who we might come up against. Hope your lot are in it and you pull a wee away day at Beechwood it would be nice to meet you in person. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry folks we have to move ahead and the club going up should be the club meeting SFA criteria. My club could win the Scottish Cup and West Premier Division but due to not having lights we will be refused entry to the Willy Hill.

The rest of the ground is up to license standard. You dont' think were doing this for nothing, if we are forced into the pyramid then we are going to the top and not just the LL. We don't like the idea but unlike many on here who will be forced to watch their team play similar Dog & Dog FC's. If Auchinleck Talbot's in it. Then their going to win it. Have a nice night. Well a few months back you seemed to understand the concept of needing a Licence, and that Bonnyrigg should be refused...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
