Only 9 sides and some are bang average- best chance of getting into play offs Have you seen Whitehill..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golum Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 The end to a miserable season for WW Given the off field turmoil and player turnover its no surprise to anyone that its official now Good luck to the club and all those who have tried to keep the club going on and off the pitch for the future in what ever league they end up in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PELE Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Probably been said many times already, but why aren't the three EoS league winners simply promoted to the Lowland League and make it 18 teams. At least on this occasion anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're making a right dugs dinner of the licensing situation ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we could add eight Lowland league teams to SPFL 2 and make it an eighteen team league Ok by me. I hate the ten team leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be down to 13 if Cove win the play off I believe but Albion or Berwick would bring it back to 14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye but it would be back up to 16 with the EOSL champion if licensed and an other of the licensed clubs who I would take a stab at being Preston.

Of course, I will see your Preston and raise you Linlithgow Rose though ? They really are making such an arse of the licensing situation though having clubs including my own hanging on.

When Selkirk ceased to exist, that should have accounted for the bottom spot. That's what happens in four senior leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Dundee went into liquidation today, would StMirren be in the relegation position and Hamilton, the play offs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You already know that the Lowland League tried to change the rule to account for Selkirk being the bottom club, and were told no as they left it until too late into the season. Maybe if people kicked up more of a fuss back in September when the Lowland League announced they were sticking with their rule book intrepretation, things would be different.

Still does nae make it right though,as the lads stated the SPFL would nae have that. Are we no all under the same governing body ? I'm only accepting relegation if Cove go up Maybe a court case is the direction to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
