Guest Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 2 hours ago, energyzone said: I don't think anyone is asking them to justify their existence. In fact I think clubs like Gartcairn and Bonnyton should have a senior side to provide a full pathway from their youngest boys clubs to senior football. After all why should they coach players from the age of 4 and then lose them to other clubs when they get beyond U19 stage. You mention Talbot and Pollok not being reliant on attendance money, which is true, but the fundraising these clubs carry out is dependent on their numerous fans buying merchandise, and so on. Most of the sponsor opportunities/activities mentioned above are already carried out by 'older' clubs so it's not as if Gartcairn are breaking new ground on this front. Fans of these clubs are more than welcome to defend/explain the funding but I also reserve the right to be sceptical about whether we are getting told the full story. But as ever, as long as the funds aren't illegitimate then it's a fair game. Who decides what is the fit and proper way of funding. If a club has enough of a fan base to self fund great. If a club gets funding via external sources good on them too. There isn't a hard and fast rulebook on funding. Or is there? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cairn Cheerleader Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Last game of the season with us needing a point to win the league away at the Bens. St cadoccs need a big win away to Bonnyton who need a huge win and the Roch to lose heavily if they want to stay up. final day where I hope the helicopter does not change direction 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PossilYM Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Well done to Gartcairn winning the league and to St Cadoc's/Benburb getting promotion. Of the seven relegated from the top league last season only Benburb have made it back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 I actually went to Benburb today. It was more a stumble over the line than a victory march. Job done though. Paul Lovering was quite quiet, which was a shame. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggyness Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Am I correct in thinking that the bottom 3 have all done a double drop? The biggest surprise is Bonnyton finishing 3rd from bottom! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right mate but we stumbled over 30 games and never lost in the last 15 so I'll take it. anyone fancy a pie? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head to head was 1 win each. Would the aggregrate score have been the decider, or a play off? Edited May 31, 2023 by jimbaxters 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked the St Cadocs score and was mid sentence when Gartcairn scored. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
