The attitude seems to have changed up there now, but you wouldn't know it from watching the play offs v Kelty this year! Pumped Hearts out of the Cup and then just didn't turn up.

We’re a dab hand at avoiding promotion ourselves truth be told. In fairness Brora will be favourites for this game and would be no shock to see us exit the cup early. Seen it all before- Inverness Caledonian, Whitehill Welfare, Deveronvale, Sunnybank and of course Buckie last season.

Gives us plenty of time to read up on how to “avoid” promotion 🤣🤣

HIGHLAND champions Brora Rangers last night insisted they will try to get through the SPFL Pyramid Play-Off at the end of the season – despite having no desire to play senior football next term.

Brora president John Young claims they have done all they can to AVOID having to compete in the
 play-offs but have been told they must take on Lowland League winners 
Edinburgh City in the first shoot-out.

Mutton molesting Twats were quite happy to beat us as well, taking delight in it, before losing to a bloody awful Paul Hegarty managed Montrose.

Fair play to the Mo, they've kicked on well since then

Tbf I think your manager dropped the Brora bit as an aside during a wide ranging interview about his plans for the season, and of course the Record jumped on it for clickbait, ignoring everything else.

I was under the impression that the person had been identified on Saturday night? 
I'm not 100% sure of the specifics and am happy to be corrected, but as I understand it the Coatbridge Boys tweeted from their account (which has now been set to private) and confirmed that the person was one of their members and they had now removed him from the group.

What I've seen on social media suggests that they haven't given the name of the offender to the club however, and they would presumably be looking to take action against them. Seems as though this ban is just a means of encouraging the group to identify the man who abused Nathan Austin

Are The Rovers next few games not away from home any way? I hope it is dealt with and the group are allowed back. I'm sure the club could be doing with their support.

The Ed City game is pencilled in as our return to Meadowbank so you'll be surrounded by ground hopping wankers all wanting a team sheet for nothing.

I hate to say it, but as soon as I heard the draw my head sank. Besides Kelty it's possibly the hardest games there is.

Good win on Saturday, looking forward to the Stirling Albion game now.

Hold your horses pal , we have Edinburgh and Stenny to play before taking on Stirling at the San Siro. Very tough but absolutely massive games.
