This sounds like an outrage, name these liars! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's putting their business to the clubs - what about the fans? Do they not matter? Have they released ANY public statement so fans know what their plans are? Other Leagues use their official websites to put out information to everyone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps true re Brechin, but as Stranraer and Forfar are League One ( at least for the time being) its pretty disrespectful to them. As the Chairman himself says , Kilwinning are a 'yo yo club' , so its not like they'd be running up a cricket score at Stair or Station Park's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stranraer especially have been punching above their weight for years. Long may that above-weight-punching continue !

Of course Stranraer has a much larger catchment area ,as the only league club in Wigtownshire, pop 28,000 approx. No reason why the Shire shouldn't have a league club.

Yes, altho some of the towns not featuring in league football just now include: East Kilbride 75,000 Glenrothes 50,000 Irvine 34,000 Rutherglen 30,000 Bishopbriggs 24,000 Kilwinning 22,000 Kirkintilloch 20,000 I wonder what the professional game would look like now if the league opened up 30 years ago... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
