Gazc Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Maybe they'll have a good old fashioned " vultures " race just before heat 1 of the Spring Trophy May not be a Spring Trophy this year too many fixtures against them anyway would much rather we started against someone else . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 I think I read our opener won't be against the weegies. Â Just too fed up with tanking them every time. Â They were exploring the possibility of getting belle Vue up, but that might just be Kinvig talk. Â Pleased to see the Weegie obsession over our team still continue unabated though.

Personally there are far too many meeting's per season between the two and i think it will be a good thing to explore other options for both , Crowd levels should not be adversely affected for either competitive meeting's should be the order off the day League & League cup will add the novelty factor again rather than the mundane oh no it's them again feeling. Â It will however mean that the Fighting fund will have to dig deeper to fill your biscuit tin up for us it will make no difference to our soaring crowd levels.

TheScotsman Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Got to agree Gazc. Â Far too many fixtures between the two. Â Same with the football - 4 times around plus cups. Far too often. Â No worries about keeping the biscuit tin full though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our team has been named for weeks , nothing to talk about as far as we are concerned . So the only interest we have is the ongoing mission to find a number 7 by our nearest and dearest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 The Spring trophy and Scottish cup won't be run as Glasgow no longer want to ride against us in any type of match other than a official fixture. Still a little touchy about us saying no to the Friday nights. Â Next month till we hear more regarding the number 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazc Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Must say that is the longest a cream puff has lasted in Weegieville No cream puff our esteemed owners have just decided we don't need Edinburgh and would rather have nothing to do with Brothers chuckle not to difficult for you to work out hopefully.

stewmac Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) It would appear, if the above is true, that the Tiggers' millionaires want to now try to put the boot in to the Monarchs by avoiding all but official matches. I have to say, this appears really pathetic strop-like behaviour by them. And it works both ways. I certainly have no intention of crossing their palms with my silver anymore.

I have to say, this appears really pathetic strop-like behaviour by them. And it works both ways. I certainly have no intention of crossing their palms with my silver anymore. It would appear it is now escalating surely the best solution would be to sit round a table and try and iron out the differences, Friday night is not going to happen for us for the foreseeable anyway and the Edinburgh promotion have blocked this move which they are entitled to do. Â Being honest it is really pretty sad it has got this far between two promotions but we are not party to everything that has happened we will stick up for our promotion and vice - versa. Â Think both set's off fan's will now boycott each other that is the way it is looking unless a middle ground can be found the day's off large travelling support from the West & the East seem to be a thing off the past for now anyway. The scribbles on the back of a fag packet handed out at the playoff final might be interpreted in several ways......... Â Not sure whose ball it is..... Â Not sure this is a smart move by the Fake Enema brothers and could backfire with more pettiness Or on the other hand it could be a very smart move depending on receding crowd levels at the Dump.

mac101 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Pretty sure each promotion will want the best revenue maker and if Glasgow bring up belle vue or a polish,Swedish,Danish team sure there is one polish team meeting against kings lynn on a Friday at the start of March and maybe fancy a trip up north maybe and wonder how many fans Edinburgh fans would come cheer cookie and Max racing against Glasgow, although do both teams need each other to survive up here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Crowd increase last season merely proves they know what they are doing and they have a long term plan regardless if Edinburgh like it or not.

TheScotsman Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Need to see what effect the price hike has on Weegie crowds. Â Maybe if they don't make too good a start to the season results-wise that might also cause a drop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One season of crowd increases is fantastic. But how long are they (the brothers Facenna) going to stick around once the going gets tough, as it surely will soon. Let's remember that Edinburgh's promotional team have been in place now for an almost unbelievable 30 years. Now that's a long term plan.

george.m Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 May not be a Spring Trophy this year too many fixtures against them anyway would much rather we started against someone else . We need some real competition to get our season started, 7 against 6 won't test us. Must say that is the longest a cream puff has lasted in Weegieville Not a a huff FB, we just don't won't to fill your coffers with our large travelling support versus your one man and his dog reciprocation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewmac Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) George, you are displaying a certain amount of arrogance my friend. It's not so long ago, indeed only a season and a bit ago, that a visit from Edinburgh meant your crowd more than doubled. Yes, all is perhaps rosy at this point in time in the Tiggers garden. But things will change, you will see. Then you'll be more than glad to see one man and his dog. Edited January 16, 2016 by stewmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Pretty sure even with Those increased crowds in the west a loss was still made for the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
