Bill 13,717 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Finally a club has gained promotion to the SPFL system. It's a bit of farce of a system that's left the Highland League a club short and (presumably) the Lowland League with a club too many. Nevertheless, it's progress of a sort. I went to see Cove at Peterhead a couple of weeks ago. They were the better team on the day, despite losing 2-1 and I thought they would have no trouble holding their own at this level. After a draw with ICT, Cove might even be favourites to get back-to-back promotions. The Rangers from Aberdeen. Who'd have thought? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 7,020 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I wish them an immediate return, not to the mis-named Highland League, but to Aberdeen Juniors. Losing by just 2-3 in inverness demonstrates how dire ict are. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 12,278 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I've seen the Sky Sports ticker, showing the Scottish League Cup scores, go past about three times, and each time I've thought, 'Oh--were we playing Raith today?'. Cove Rangers. Aren't Raith in the Championship? Cove just beat them 3-0. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I’d been thinking about bets as I’d have lumped on Talbot at 10/1 this morning. SUPER TALBOT. No keeping them down. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
