    It’s what Highland League representatives agreed to when restructuring took place. The League lost two Inverness clubs, Ross County, Elgin, and Peterheid when a restructure allowed this. Otherwise, there was no merit-based system for ambitious clubs to progress to a higher level. Your point is valid, of course, but Cove were desperate to climb into it, as are Winton’s Banks O Dee, Atholl’s Formartine, and before they burnt themselves out by crazy over-spending, Locos. I’d imagine the Broch would swither over it too. i’m afraid the comfort zone factor does weigh significantly, though. At individual player level, i worked with a number of SHFL players who were frequently offered trials and transfers to eg the Angus clubs, but who saw no advantage in this. Wages might have been slightly higher, but they all said that getting to training two evenings a week, having to sacrifice holiday entitlement to enable midweek away matches, and arriving back in the city at an ungodly hour from such fixtures before working next day made it not worth their while. Brora are now two matches away from promotion, and are the second most geographically-disadavantaged of the current SHFL membership. It’ll be interesting to see if they’re up for it.

    Bloody depressing. But the funny thing was, that we actually started the season with a decent spread across the squad, then it stopped, and stopped big time.

    It is not so much comfort zones but more that the pyramid system is great in theory but in practice just does not make sense. Why on earth would a team like Buckie want to be going away to places like Stirling, Annan and Clyde every other week. If you are a player working during the week you just ain't going to want to spend 6 or 7 hours of every second Saturday on a bus. If you chuck in the travel costs for the club of doing that, it is just a stupid concept for a wee Highland League team.

    I'm hoping that if Hearts win the league this season the same happens to them............but quicker

    More than a third of our goals this season coming from players who are no longer at the club. Minging form. Would be good to see Cameron and Olusanya chipping in.

    Aberdeen v Kilmarnock

    I’m a touch concerned about the sense out there that a win against 10 Hibs players who looked like they couldn’t be arsed from the get go means we will sweep Killie aside. The post-Thelin (and probably pre and during) Aberdeen would have us all in expectant mode only to come out in their slippers and lose 0-1. Clinging to the idea that Robinson has them fired up and that the dart board and coffee machine are doing some heavy lifting on spirit. We really need to show up here as Killie are going to. 2-1, Olusanya to finally get up and running with an ugly, cumbersome finish.

    Swaddon and BUS both saying a win for us. I now have the fear. The two hun cunts in charge at Killie will have them well up for this one.

    The Dons go into this one looking to build on and extend their winning run of one in a row and continue to boost their confidence as the try to claw themselves away from that dreaded relegation playoff spot. SR should have no problem in making sure our lot are well up for the challenge of one of our closest relegation rivals. This is probably our biggest game of the season, and should be treated as our Cup Final. Beat Killie and we go 8 points clear of them with only 4 games to go. I have no idea why but for some strange reason I am quietly confident that we will see them off quite easily. 3-0 The Dandies (Nisbet with all three)

    The Killie fixture should be my first attendance since we played Celtic in midweek the business end of two months ago. “Watching” games on the BBC’s web update feature is shite. I even considered attending a Pollock Juniors cup-tie just round the corner from my temporary abode, but stayed too long at QEUH to catch even the last 15 minutes, and it was pishing doon. I’m confident of a win at the weekend.
  17. The Red Revival continues apace at the Cathedral of Football on Saturday at 3 pm when Kilmarnock make the long trip up the road. I fancy a 2-1 home win.

    Pretty drab first half in the Super Classico but Boca 1-0 up after VAR awarded penalty just before half time.

    Linlithgow’s isn’t the same as the Buckie experience, as Buckie failed to apply for an offered waiver by a stated deadline. Linlithgow did apply, but this application was refused and they lost their chance. I have no idea what the beaks have designated as non-compliance. There was huge speculation at the time of Buckie’s knock-back - which continues - that Buckie may have deliberately self-sabotaged in missing the deadline. Comfort zones and that.

    You need to move with the times mate And to think I used to think that Jambos were talking shite saying Dons fans were stuck in the past

    DT Politics Thread

    I am not, not being optimistic. I don't believe that most of the wealth that modernity has created is particularly meaningful. I think we can all be happy, indeed happier, with a lot, lot less. If we don't, then we're simply, selfishly, kicking the can down the road so that you're (and my) children will be in the position you are now wondering why their now deid da didn't recognise the coming disaster. I'm more concerned that my children will wonder why I believed the blatant fantasy of electric cars, less flights and vegan processed food. Edit: I hope it's obvious that I'm referring to myself too when I talk of selfishness and so on

    I'm just joking. I feel I should maintain my antagonist position against all forum changes and thread maintenance

    Said the same while watching the game this afternoon. Also wouldn’t be surprised to see O’Hara rock up to Pittodrie.
