My top 5 for the Premier Division 2019/20 are:

1. Penicuik Athletic
2. Hill of Beath Hawthorn
3. Newtongrange Star
4. Dunbar Utd
5. Leith Athletic

For me Dunbar Utd will be the suprise package.

Musselburgh Athletic had their EGM the other night and very little news has filtered out of the decisions made. However one change appears to be a more dynamic approach to seeking sponsorship.

Hope that some new signings are on the way following the departure of Ally Adams and Sean Murphy to Berwick Rangers, Steve MacDonald to Spartans, Chris Gray to Tranent and Calvin Shand.  At the moment it is difficult to envisage a top 5 place without some decent replacements.

Does anyone have information on average attendances for Group A clubs over the last season in their respective leagues? Do Penicuik Athletic still average over 200 supporters a game? Newtongrange Star around 250 and Musselburgh Athletic around 180?  Hill of Beath Hawthorn around 100? These are old stats from 2 or 3 years ago.

Will Newtongrange be the best supported club in this Conference?

There is then the drawing power and interest created from the new competition.

A musseygreen thread from the Juniors Forum.

Just to confirm that Calvin Shand is the Musselburgh manager and is actively adding to his squad for the challenges that lie ahead next season in the EoS league. He has the full backing of the New committee and the supporters. Any outstanding players wages are currently being sorted and they are aware of this. Charlie has stepped down from his role at the club.  The debt figures quoted earlier in this thread are very overstated.  The new committee are working extremely hard to resolve any issues and supporters, manager and playing staff are being kept informed. Personally, I'm very optimistic about the future for Musselburgh athletic. 

Hopefully Musselburgh will sort their problems out and make a firm commitment towards EoS Premier Division football for 2019/20.

No idea but one groundhopper (might have been Marten that posts on here?) mentioned there were 250 at Hill of Beath v Jeanfield game a few weeks back. pretty decent attendance I thought.

Yes, that was me. It was a bit of a head count by myself, but it can't have been far off.

I'm sure that is what the committee will be seeking to achieve! As we move forward to this new set up, hopefully, lots of positives will out, both on the park and behind the scenes! MTB!

Couple of pics showing part of the crowd at Dunbar’s recent home games v St Andrews & Tranent
We do alright, prob about 200 at both games on headcount
Decent crowd v Tranent as we were up against Cup Final on tv and a big,and very worthy, charity event at same venue

I am a self-confessed "paper-chaser"! Can you help me in establishing those clubs that will be issuing a regular programme for 2018/19 in Conference A? I can then add the info to the EOS clubs breakdown.
Penicuik have confirmed they will be and Newtongrange would be expected to do likewise.

Last season Hawick, Leith, Penicuik, Newtongrange and Peebles all issued programmes. Not sure about the rest.
