Lithgae have played the same number of games as Cuikie 👍

Cheers. Getting carried away with all my numbers!

Yip, only two matches in hand with Tranent. Still think my sentiment is correct though. In most seasons, all teams have dip in form so all still to play for at the moment.

Even the top should remain interesting - Penicuik and Tranent still to play each other twice, Linlithgow still to play both (Tranent twice) and plenty of games against the teams at the bottom fighting for their lives.

A few weeks ago, some people were saying it was a two-horse race for the Premier League title.

Particularly with Linlithgow having 2 matches in hand over the top 2; still plenty of chances for top 2 now to be caught.


Fair points... furthermore Linlithgow's last 2 games of the season are Tranent (H) then Penicuik (A) so on paper they could afford to still be adrift going into May.

(Musselburgh, Jeanfield and Camelon are the current top 3's other opponents over last 3 games).

Saturday 6th November 2021
Blackburn United 1-5 Tranent
Broxburn Athletic 1-0 Whitehill Welfare
Camelon 1-3 Linlithgow Rose
Dundonald Bluebell 6-3 Dunbar United
Hill of Beath Hawthorn 2-2 Musselburgh Athletic
Jeanfield Swifts 3-1 Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts
Newtongrange Star 2-0 Crossgates Primrose
Sauchie 3-2 Lothian Thistle HV
Tynecastle 0-2 Penicuik Athletic


Today marked halfway point of league campaign on paper, and in practice 48% of games have been played (so null-&-void threshold will be passed next Saturday).

Feels like routine wins at the top. Dundonald won a thriller to leave defenders wincing. Sauchie won... so did Newtongrange again to move within 3pts of safety... but Hill of Beath couldn't hold-on for 3pts v Musselburgh. Whitehill drop bottom.

Wouldn't be betting against Hill o' Beath yet after watchng today's game.

Decent performance and the keeper in particular kept them in it with a great save when we were pushing them.

Not entirely sure why they've been getting doings having watched that.

A few of us were wincing at Dunbar's defending right enough! A good game for the neutral I suppose and banter enjoyed with Kevin Fotheringham too... :lol:

I quite like Dundonald, they seem a friendly club.

Caused a bit controversy last season did they no though ?

No idea. I don't pay that much attention to the EOSL these days.

 

(Might have to in a couple of seasons they way things are going at City though...)

Two moments of "what's the goalie daein" at Penicuik's goals.

And two teams with white stripes is surely a bit of a kit clash?

For the 2nd I think the goalie expected a shot across goal as Nicky had done the same thing earlier.  After seeing the highlights the keeper would usually expect to save that. 
full credit to Dunbar last night. I’d hate to play them every week as they played at a fast tempo with plenty of fast strong runners. They brought a good few fans too as I think that was our biggest home crowd this year in the league. As we have done so many times this year we dug deep and got the result.

Now we look forward to a trip to Tranent to face the high scoring galacticos.

Tynecastle Dundonald was the best game I've been to this season.

3 down at half time and down to 10 men they've got themselves back into it and scored a 94th minute equaliser.

They had me celebrating and I was only there as a neutral just wanting to see a good game of football.

Games at this level are by far the best value for money in Scotland
