Is it 16 clubs in the Premier Division next season?

Is it one down from the LL plus the two champions from the Div.1 conferences plus the top 13 from the Premier (if no club from the EoS is promoted to the LL)? Is the best runner-up from the conferences going up too i.e. three up from the conferences?

Yes, there will be 16 clubs in the Premier Division. Four clubs will be relegated, both conference champions go up. With Vale of Leithen getting relegated to this division, the 14th placed side will also get relegated if the league champions don't get promoted. There was a scenario which would see the conference runners-up play-off for an extra spot, but that would involve the champions getting promoted to the LL and no club getting relegated to the EoSFL. But as Vale of Leithen will get relegated to the EoSFL (except if Elgin City still finish bottom of League 2 & then lose the PO against Bonnyrigg, but that's highly unlikely as they're 9 points ahead of Cowdenbeath with 3 games to go and a better goal difference), that scenario can be ruled out by now.

Whitehill, Camelon and (nearly) Nitten gone, and 10th to 15th now covered by only three points with a good chance five will go down, it's going to be some end to the season at the bottom.  Some clubs who thought they were safe are now getting a bit nervous.

Tranent looking the form team at the top, do they have what it takes to beat Talbot/Darvel?

Tranent are the form team but it is still in Linlithgow's hands. I wasn't at the friendly but am told Darvel are comfortably the best team the Rose have played this season.

Just looked at Lithgae's run in, ooooft!  Tranent 4 out of 5 at home.  Penicuik seems to have the easier finish but their form is a mixed bag.

We’ve got some run in. If we win the league it’ll be deserved.

Tranent got to be favourites but this next one between us will be some game!

Whoever wins will have deserved it, it's a quality league.  It's just ridiculous that whoever wins it isn't guaranteed promotion.
