They won't become members of the Fife FA unless they get their licence which is in the full statement. Ah of course, forgetting that they have a "second chance", well hopefully! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Which begs the question of whether Bonnyrigg can get their lights installed in time for that as well? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know of their wired up or anything about planning permission. Interesting, though tbh they don't look 15m tall like others I've seen pp for, and who knows if they'll produce enough lux. Not much chance of light affecting neighbours but I'd have thought pp was still needed... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look similar to the poles at the Haws. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out there's six of them, bit more confident they should be ok (maybe these are newer/better spec as Haws have four lights per pole). Hopefully they get accepted in June - will make the Scottish Cup format even more interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say won't be as bright as the Haws who i'm sure have improved the bulbs on their lights this season. Good to see Bluebell get the job done so quick though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He told me 4 on each side, The pics which show 3 on each side obviously have ones nearer to where he was standing and out of the pic you see that by looking at 1 and 3 Edited May 25, 2019 by cowdenbeath 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWeatherFan Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Bit of a tangent and it's something that's a bit anarchronism in this day and age, as I think it's really on Fife and maybe still Stirlingshire on the go. Any chance that the Lothian clubs might form a senior Lothians FA for a cup competition? With clubs potentially being spread across the SPFL, LL and EoS in the next few years it would be a way to continue old rivalries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With clubs potentially being spread across the SPFL, LL and EoS in the next few years it would be a way to continue old rivalries. Stirlingshire Cup hasn't been contested since 2015-16 (whose Final was never played!). It has always surprised me that East Stirlingshire haven't joined EOSFA, especially since moving to the Falkirk Stadium, although I appreciate they may wish to avoid additional ground rents. Fife Cup is really a sort of singular exception - an extra tournament for those clubs which they play on midweek as 'n when they can. There would be nothing stopping Lothian clubs instituting a similar tournament (although I doubt they'd form a separate FA to do so) but the fact is you wouldn't get Hearts or Hibs entering, nor Edinburgh City most probably given they have the City Cup, so it would be the smallest of small beer. There have been vague murmurs about reinstating the Border Cup down the years but nothing ever came of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what the strength the Dundonald team was but, to be fair, we only had one first team squad player starting. Looked essentially like our under 20 team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundonald 20s are pretty handy too so even if they had some of them playing they would have been decent vs your 20s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East expert Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) Dundonald had a mix of under 20s and fringe players, only 2 who played for them on Saturday started Edited October 29, 2019 by East expert 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
