Jambo92 Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 SPFL mafia doing all they can to stop their Brechin friends from facing the music. They've even got Brechin chairman to step down from his role for a few months so no one raises suspicions when they announce the playoffs won't go ahead, a year on its scary that we are still governed by the corrupt mafia.

Saint Jambo Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Prem/Champ: Ross County and Hamilton down, Hearts and ICT up. Champ/L1: Morton and Alloa down, Falkirk and Partick up. L1/L2: ? down, Queens Park and Stranraer or Edinburgh City up. L2/Non-league: Brechin down, Kelty up. Think that would be an almost clean sweep if good guys up, bad guys down. Not sure who our enemies are at the foot of League 1. Also not convinced Queens Park were good guys, but they are clearly going up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Apprentice Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Clubs like Brechin are simply shit scared of what’s beneath them. Both East Stirling and Berwick have gone down in recent years and have no chance of getting back up anytime soon. Brechin know the same thing will happen to them so are doing everything to cling on to their SPFL status. There are several teams in the Highland/Lowland league more than ready to take their place and they know it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo they have more chance in the Highland. Don't know why, but I've always had a liking for the Angus teams, I don't want to lose them, but it's their own destiny, they are good enough on the pitch.

Guest ToqueJambo Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Alloa, Brechin, Ayr, Hamilton all going down as looks likely/possible and us, Thistle, Falkirk, Stranraer, and Caley (or anyone but Raith or Dundee) - also very possible - going up would be perfect payback for last year.

There are a few club chairmen up there just biding their time. Cove bought the league for ages so they accepted that they’d struggle as thats bankrolled by the Balmoral Group. Once they were gone Brora had stepped up doing the same. Once they are gone it should be a fairly balanced league but there is no way the Brechin finances will compete with some Highland League teams. Raccortubi are looking to push investment in Keith due to their links to them for instance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the first to call out Sepp Blatter for his financial shenanigans but sadly did not live to see Blatter’s downfall. Mike Mulraney on the other hand .....
