GordonS Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 What did you leave for ? I had planned to watch the game and then head over to Peffermill for the second half of Leith v Oakley, but the game was awful and nothing about the ground made me want to stay (rail is 10 yards from the pitch, seating is a further 10 yards back and people were standing in front of it, no food before the game and I hadn't had lunch). So I went for the whole of the Leith game instead, which was a better and more interesting match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason King Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 At least the Seniors isn't costing you that much heralded £18 that you have been whinging about for months. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christ if you saw the Peffermill 3G as a better option for watching fitba than the Strollerdome you are safely in the minority.

How's it odd ? you've paid an admission fee giving the club some revenue. They wouldn't have given a feck whether you stayed or went after that. You then go on and criticise the club after a brief 45 stop. I'd say that's a bit odd....... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutankhamen Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Basically the same as the Juniors by the looks of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnieclub78 Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 Just want to thank clubs, supporters and everyone who helped with head counts / attendances for weekend games. I now have attendances for all Lowland league & eosfl games played, as accurate as possible at this early stage. I will get something up in the next day or two. With mid week games this week I would really appreciate any help with head counts / attendances. I am hoping this can be done for all games throughout season. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonS Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Christ if you saw the Peffermill 3G as a better option for watching fitba than the Strollerdome you are safely in the minority. The pitch markings are terrible and there's no cover, but you can get an elevated view and closer to the pitch so the sightlines are considerably better. I'd never been before so I didn't know what it would be like; if the Strollers game hadn't been eye-wateringly bad I'd definitely have stayed.Leith-Oakley was a much more interesting game, being between a higher-end EoS team and a middling ex-Junior. I was surprised to see that Oakley had more ability in their ranks and ought to have won by more, but Leith we disciplined and a bit more tactically astute. The contrast in styles was intriguing.Vale of Leithen v Gala tonight, looking forward to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's totally irrelevant. I can't understand why you'd mention the officials. I know you were trying to make some sort of point but I don't know what it is.FWIW a person would have to be very touchy indeed to be bothered by me saying the rail is a long way from the pitch. Are we not allowed to pass comment on the grounds we go to? If so, you'd better not read what I wrote about Cove. Am I allowed to say I liked Guy's Meadow last night? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like yer original post. You paid yer entry fee then fecked off. You're the one saying my post was odd. I just found it odd criticising a club you know practically feck all about. Every time I've been there, there's ALWAYS been decent food.

I don't want to be a journalist, I was only responding to the OP with the attendance but making clear I was only there for the first half.
