Rochstar1920 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 No doubt most clubs will not meet one or two of the criteria but huntershill is nowhere near meeting most of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardest ned in glasgow Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 That criteria is wishful thinking. No club will pass that. But the sjfa have deemed the ground good to go, as it passed an inspection. Must have done for them to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rochstar1920 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 So why have it??????The sjfa don't even know their own rules ffs. Or could it be that they had to let them use it as the would have lost a team in the league if they didn't. As no doubt rossvale would have lost the tenure to use peterhill.

A set of rules that bear no relation to the real world...hardly unique in life, or mine at least. From a paying guest's perspective, I'm happy with a full size pitch and evidence that efforts are made to maintain the pitch. Clubs can charge an extra £1 if they provide cover. OK, I'll let the farts in suits have their line about goals being the right size too, Beyond this, I'm happy to enjoy the rough with the smooth and the fact that grounds are different don't all come from a lego set. Of course, if you prefer, subscribe to the ground criteria blueprint and watch the three teams that meet them play each other twelve times a season for the right to be champions of nothing.

Hong Kong Phooey Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Great 3pts for The Gow today. Yoker collapsed second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenconner Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 That's Benburb crossed the quarter way line in league games. 6 wins out of 7, 18 points out of a possible 21. Up to the rest to chase after them although everybody else seems to have games in hand. Now nearly in October and Glasgow Perthshire with only three league games played since August. Can see the Shire playing 4 games a week come next May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenconner Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Another win for league leaders Benburb at home, 3-2. St Roch's still hanging in there with the top teams in the league with a 4-0 win away at Greenock. Trick is to get as many points in the bag before winter sets in.

Jason King Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Ding and indeed Dong old bean. Chickens still not being counted, teams below have games in hand and can equal the Bens current points total. Its a great start to the season, just need to keep the momentum going so that Benburb have a chance of getting into the new 2nd Division/Premier/Level 2/whatever its called for next season when it comes down to the business end of the season.

Beckanbaur Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Not on yesterday's game they won't Totally shocked at that result last week to be honest, as a follower of cambuslang and being fortunate enough to win that league last season I thought yoker would have a similar powerful side to win that league but proving to be tough. Benburb have went from a mid table side to champion form with the same side so it is interesting to say the least ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
