MAKE SHIFT SHIRE TEAM & ENERGY LEVELS DOWN DUE TO COVID. WHAT IS THE OFFICIAL REASON FOR THE IBROX DERBY BEING P:P ?  WRONG KIND OF MOON IN THE SKY ? 😛

Do you think the paying public will get an answer to your second sentence? I will keep my cynical response to myself. They are the OF Colts and can treat this League with the disrespect they have all season. They have 11/12 games left in the season and still have to play each other twice!!!

C’mon The Rose 🌹🌹🌹

(and f—- off the OFColts)

It will be postponed because they wanted a crowd into Ibrox.

They will play each other in their real stadiums, get a crowd and make back the money they paid to get into the LL.

And all while claiming  they brought big crowds to the league to justify their existence. Nonsense. Shite like this was outlawed in the Scottish cup for clubs to make a few bucks, the lowland league should have forced them to either use ibrox every week or play their mini derby at their nominated home ground.

The LL just bowed over to them too quickly.

If Cowdenbeath are relegated to the Lowland League and the Highland League champions win the play-off, would that mean the bottom two teams in the Lowland League would require to be relegated ?

Yes.

It's a scenario that's already played out with Cove Rangers/Berwick Rangers trading places. 15th place Whitehill Welfare were relegated alone, as Selkirk had gone bust during the season.

Yes and Gretna winning yesterday means that Cumbernauld Colts getting relegated and potentially not being replaced through the playoffs by a WoS club is looking like a slightly more credible scenario again. A double relegation into the WoS should soon be mathematically impossible though, especially if Broomhill are classed as an EoS catchment team courtesy of playing in Alloa.

Why the feck have they started using the phrase “ postponed for medical reasons”, is nobody allowed to say COVID?

Because it might not just be Covid? The reason for insufficient players could be Covid + isolation + injuries.

If you look at the figures you'll see that basically all the clubs best attendances have been when Celtic or Rangers came to town. Clubs can move games if they both agree, just like some SPFL clubs have done recently rather than playing in front of 500 fans.

Gretna 2 Dalbeattie 1. Game over for any lingering hopes Vale had. 

At least 7 points from 10 games required. They've managed 4 in the last two years, one of which was against Gretna. They'll need to hope the likes of Dalbeattie and Colts etc who have nothing much to play for, turn up against Gretna and not them.
