What chances of tomorrow with the amount of rain due to fall? It's a great surface and well looked after so should have a good chance. No cover though unless you hide under the trees if it's raining. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonS Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I hope you'll forgive me for selfishly hoping that it's off - it's one of two grounds in Conference C that I've not been to, and I can't make it on Saturday so a postponement would suit me fine. Mon the drookin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 St Mark's was built-over a refuse dump, IIRC, percolates fantastically. Excellent pitch. Take an umbrella. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Aside from us, this is practically the only other team in the whole of the EoS that plays somewhere actually worth going to, getting the train and going to the pub before/after is obviously the right option imoMinter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hacker98 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Craig Royston 0 Rose 4 F/T. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th1stleandr0se Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Comfortable win for the Rose with the wind not affecting the play as much as I'd expected. Craigroyston must be the lippiest team I've seen in ages. About 5 or 6 of their 7 or 8 bookings were for dissent. They had already heavily disputed the first goal for offside when the Rose had probably just timed the run and pass to perfection and when the lino unbelievably put his flag up to confirm the second goal rather than flag it offside they went mental. Maybe the ref was a bit quick with his yellow card but, having seen that, to keep on using strong language with him time after time was asking for trouble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Heid Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Enjoyable visit to a new ground for me.I think the gulf was summed up by their only shot was from a wind assisted kick from their keeper.£5 admission including a programme was nice touch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everyone at Linlithgow has embraced the move and some may be sympathetic to the viewpoint above. The biggest problem that I see is the uncertainty/lack of information and this plays into the hands of the doubters. (The vote to move EoS was won but not the Hearts and Minds of many) Next season the following scenarios are all being talked about as possibilities (informed by limited knowledge and mis or lack of clear information) 1. Move as Champions to LL 2. Move to LL because we have a licence and Bonnyrigg don't 3. Move to LL on application because we have a licence and there is an empty space 4. Move to LL 2 because we have a licence 5. EoS Premier League - almost the old Super League 6. Return junior - that's where we should be anyways..! I appreciate quite a few of the above can be quickly dispelled - but not everybody has the same level of information/knowledge and to many all of the above are options. This uncertaintly only fuels the doubters more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well 1 and 5 can happen, 2 and 3 might happen depending on circumstances but wont if a Licenced club wins the EoS, bottom club is now Selkirk not 15th (ie Whitehill) and I'm guessing 6 doesn't have any chance of happening! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't there uncertainty in football anyway, will we go up, will we get relegated, can we make the top 5 etc etc. Win the EoS and there's no uncertainty, otherwise you try again next season from the EoS Premier. If there's an opportunity to apply for a LL place then great. Edited February 11, 2019 by Burnie_man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not about to get stressed trying to appease the option 6 crew. They can either support the club or not - entirely up to them. In fact, I'm paying no more attention to stuff that needs "appeased". Either get behind the team or do something else with your time. The club is in the pyramid, it will go as far as the people who support it want it to go. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
