AsimButtHitsASix Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Mibees the cost of having the wedding in the summer was far more than any potential win bonus for reaching the next round of the SCC? Saving a few grand v one extra tie in a competition they weren't gonnae win anyway. No brainer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When theirs something close to a line it could always be debated. The new lidl next to alloa ground has the same problem somethings say ita Hilton road because the entrance to the land is on Hilton road but the store is on clackmannan road same as the football ground is 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No brainer It undoubtedly would’ve been Asim as the bonus for taking a LL scalp in terms of Gala was around zero as it is for all South teams I’d expect in the SCC and the only reward was another lengthy , expensive trip for another even more incredibly hard tie away to BSC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The South Committee and our rivals here in the SOSFL are in general very accommodating for such occurrences however we ( and we can’t be sure who ) found the LL and or Gala let’s say slightly less helpful ! We found this strange considering they’d be favourites for the tie regardless of who we had available on the day and I’d certainly like to think most League set ups and adversaries might given the obvious free week for both in that first round date have been slightly kinder given their obvious advantages in terms of players and finance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same principle happens when going to howden centre in Livingston its actual postcode takes you to the hospital as the crow flies it is on that territory as it's right behind but access on a sat nav you need to use a postcode for a neighbouring street. So everyone will think different. Not everything is done in straight lines which is why people think its grangemouth but its actually falkirk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no hate towards it at all, but it had served it spurpose and it is time to move along. There's a lot of good things to look back at. Okay keys, you don't need to post that every day.

Shetland is a funny one tho as they don't have any direct transport links to the far north of Scotland like the other 2 do, the ferry docks in Aberdeen . So find a league for them if you can be bothered The Channel Islands teams in the English system get allocated to the league that covers the most convenient mainland airport - Heathrow in their case. Shetland in the WOSFL, anyone? Edited April 16, 2020 by sdr71 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 3 hours ago, Cyclizine said: There are fewer games and laxer player registration in club rugby. They also get travel subsidy from the SRU. Certainly, Orkney used to rely on scrounging players from the mainland when playing away. Have heard the Shetland team do that as well. The limit I could see islands teams being able to do would be Scottish Cup entry if there was a generous travel subsidy. Given how many clubs are likely to get licensed in the years ahead I'd place that in don't hold your breath territory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Orkney definitely do as I was called in to play for them several years ago. I don't think we'll see any of the island teams in regular league competition; save Orkney, who I can't realistically see ever playing at a higher level than the North Caledonian League, given the logistics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
