Sad thing for me is I'm actually for joining the pyramid but genuinely worry what type of environment that will look if having a different concern or focus is greeted with what I'm getting on p&b. Everybody is entitled to put forward the concerns,don't think anybody would have a problem with that, but from what I've seen of your recent posts, they are just snidy and sarcy. People aren't going to respond to that positively. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNU_Linux Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Lochar Thistle and Heston Rovers are currently the only two Dumfries based teams and whilst the latter has been mentioned ( not by the Club ) they ground share Palmerston with Queen of the South and therefore don’t have first option on fixtures ! It’ll be interesting to see if any of the South sides are genuinely interested ! Ground share isn't necessarily an issue see Edinburgh City sharing with Spartans, BSC with Alloa, Stirling Uni with Stirling Albion & East Stirling with Falkirk (previously Stenhousmuir). The rules are the club higher up the system get first priority so some Friday night games will be played with a Sunday game now & again for the club lower down the system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people try to paint some of the Junior club officials as old duffers stuck in the past (and some are) but theyre not as stupid as some would believe, That's definitely what any good politician would do in this situation. Be seen to cater to both the heart and the head. It's unpalatable emotionally for some people given the 134 years of history angle, but the LL holds all the aces where pyramid entry is concerned and this is ultimately only heading in one direction, which is a senior WoS with no SJFA involvement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His comment about the SFA meeting in June was just daft IMO. (People didn't realise I was being sarcastic earlier). Considering Wallsa has a junior cup winners medal unlike folk on here his opinion should not be derided. He was told at Ladeside meeting that NOTHING will be decided until SFA meeting in June...and that nothing may well even be decided then. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly while I have followed this thread from day one I am utterly sick of it, like being drunk but having that last nauseating glass that means a restless night. I just want it to end! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think they will be balanced when they've already as good as quit, taking what I hear was a respectable region official with them in the process? Genuinely interested as from a far they appear as very unhappy. Edited March 9, 2020 by Killiepiyo -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there's 4 I know of who have put in expressions of interest who have no intention of following that up with an application unless other clubs in the same geographical area go ahead and do it, in which case they might change their minds. Everyone is playing the waiting game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A balanced picture is provided by being able to hear both sides of an argument rather than just one. It's unfortunate,that nobody at the earlier general meeting was available to question the validity of the assertion that both the SPFL and the LL backed Option Z. If there had been, maybe Option W would have been backed instead and things would not now be heading for an acrimonious split. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
