EoS Conference B Thread 2019-20


Recommended Posts

Tynecastle has now played 1/3 of program... and everyone in this conference except Preston (waterlogged on opening day), Hawick (next week), plus Inverkeithing (on Nov 16th)... and still 100%-record.

I was just looking at what their best league season had been wins wise until now. Since becoming Tynecastle FC it was 2008/09 in the old EoS First Division when they won 17 out of 22 games.

It has been an incredible turnaround compared to last year when they finished 10th in their Conference with only 5 wins!

Arniston Rangers have been deducted 3pts for fielding a suspended player in their earlier loss to Hawick RAU.

(David Liddle - https://www.scottishfa.co.uk/scottish-fa/football-governance/disciplinary/disciplinary-updates/).

Arniston have been deducted a further 3pts for fielding a triallist last registered abroad without obtaining international clearance in another game.

They now have 4pts.

Big win for Glenrothes over Conference A leaders Leith. Impressive bounce back from last week's loss to St Andrews.

Having marked 12 wins in a row with a 12-0 win, this week they mark their 13th win with a 13-0. Should Haddington be worried or can they break the streak next week?

Tynecastle last 3home matches, Tweedmouth 15-1, Hawick 12-0 and Peebles 13-0, total aggregate 40-1. 
is this an East of Scotland record.
Hibee Jibee can you confirm

Impossible to say as records interrogable like that don't go very far back ("3 consecutive home games" is rather niche too!). As recently as spring 2018 we saw Kelty go 32-2 and in August 2017 we saw LTHV go 30-2 so we shouldn't assume it as inconceivable throughout history.

It certainly hasn't happened since 1986-87; and nothing obvious jumps-out from a cursory look for double-digit scorelines (in league only) from 1920s to 1950s.

Allegedly... though I consider it almost certainly erroneous... Selkirk beat Spartans 24-2 in 1955-56; if true they would "only" have needed 8 or 9 in each of the adjacent games.

On the 'balance of probabilities' my instinct would be it probably is a record.

They've met everyone in B except Preston and Hawick (waterlogged) and met Arniston, Coldstream and Stirling Uni EOS twice.

If there's any chance of them being taken it looks like being from now to Christmas: due to rugby they've run of away ties at Haddington, Inverkeithing and HW Uni, plus host Kinnoull then visit in form Burntisland. Leith and LTHV derbies in January.

No bumps in the road for Tynecastle as they get their 15th win. That helps Glenrothes and Dalkeith gain some ground on 2nd place Inverkeithing.
