A tad bit presumptuous there with Bonnyrigg. Yes they will be favourites to go up to LL, but in a 2match play off, the other potential opponents, Penicuik, HoB, Broxburn and Linlithgow are all good enough to win that mini league!

And no forgetting aboot who's successful/unsuccessful  in getting a license as well  ?

Penicuik doing their bit yesterday winning 0-4 away to tweedmouth, hill of beath need to win at newtongrange tomorrow night or the title will be penicuiks with a game to spare

Hope that HoB do win tomorrow. Like conference C it would be great, for most, if the league was decided on the last day of the season!

Regular occurrence in EOSL and LL in recent years. List of where a title has gone down to the wire.

Those highlighted in yellow (where the trailing side won) may give heart to HoB/Linlithgow.

One thing is certain     the Tuesday and Saturday games should attract big gates to see who is going to win this Conference and the weather is to be fine on both days/nights.  Will be at both games to see the finale.

Hope you’ve got a helicopter or you are not going to see much of the 2nd  half , whichever way you do it?

Is it Penicuik v Musselburgh first half and Easthouses v Hill o Beath 2nd half, or vice versa?

Hope HoB win. tonight and take it from there on Saturday. Burgh played terrible in both matches against Penicuik this season. Probably our best performance of season, was beating HoB away, in the league. IF we replicate our performance of that day, we would have a chance of beating Penicuik this time around.

The Haws win to take the Championship finale to this Saturday. They need to win and hope Penicuik lose, nothing else will do. Very much advantage Penicuik but anything can happen in football.

Saturday 20th April
Easthouses Lily MW v. Hill of Beath Hawthorn
Penicuik Athletic v. Musselburgh Athletic

From next year onwards the EoS Premier is arguably going to be more about continuing the legacy of the East Superleague than anything else and the sooner clubs like Bathgate Thistle, Armadale, Whitburn and Fauldhouse see it that way and want a slice of the action so there is an outright merger the better.

You'd think Penicuik have it given their 5-0 and 4-0 wins over Musselburgh earlier in the season. HOB will be kicking themselves losing to both Musselburgh and Newtongrange at home.

Yawn! Musselburgh are kicking themselves for losing to Penicuik and Newtongrange and only drawing at home to HoB! For these results going our way, Musselburgh would be contesting the league on. Saturday!

Remember Burgh took 4  out of 6 from HoB this season - and i’d say HoB are the best team we have played this season. But whoever wins the league on Saturday will deserve it. Title is based on 24 matches, not the 2 or 3 matches that teams were either kicking themselves or considering themselves lucky!

Err, not sure that's how the phrase "kicking themselves" works! Musselburgh will surely be more disappointed by the defeats at Coldstream and Dunbar, plus the draw against Oakley than dropped points against the top teams, costing them a chance of the title.

My post was simply regarding HoB's dropped points as they took 4/6 v Penicuik but faltered against 3rd and 4th. Penicuik's late goal to get a draw v Dunbar last month was crucial as it means they don't need a win on Saturday.

Just using the phrase in the same way as you did. No team has a right to win against teams below them.

Musselburgh deserved to get beat by Coldstream and Dunbar away. Not so sure about the Nitten loss as that was a much tighter affair.

As I said, it's about 24 league matches and not so much about the 2 or 3 that the 'maybe if' scenario is talked about.

Conference A

Peebles Rovers 2-3 Musselburgh Athletic

image.png.9b64d8d90bd7e2e9b1cd0f576531ad7e.png

Looks to have been a hard fought win for Musselburgh. They took the lead twice, only for Peebles to tie up the game. Their 3rd and final goal coming in the 85th minute.

Musselburgh have now scored in every league and cup game they've played this season...except against Penicuik.

Conference A

Dunbar United v. Tweedmouth Rangers
Easthouses Lily MW v. Hill of Beath Hawthorn
Peebles Rovers v. Coldstream
Penicuik Athletic v. Musselburgh Athletic

image.png.700620564ac37bdabaa974e2bdb5e074.png

All about the goings on in Penicuik and Easthouses today. Penicuik get at least a point and they are guaranteed the Conference champioinship. Hill of Beath need to win and hope that Penicuik lose under to pip them to the championship on goal difference.

Elsewhere, Dunbar, Peebles and Tweedmouth wrap up their league campaigns.
