Tom Hosie Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Looking like Cowdenbeath for the last place in next season's First Division. Brechin 0, Cowdenbeath 3 at half-time. Forfar 1-0 up on Arbroath at half-time in the other play-off game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neiljag Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 First time we've been in the same league as them since 1933-34. Quite the stat that, considering our ups and downs in the last 15 years. I've never been to Central Park, looking forward to the trip next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodstock Jag Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Our "New Year Derby" is going to be gash again. The only permutations I can see happening are these two: Dundee v County Raith v Dunfermline Stirling v Falkirk Queens v Cowden Thistle v Morton or Dundee v County Raith v Cowden Dunfermline v Falkirk Queens v Morton Thistle v Stirling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrantB Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Delighted for Danny Lennon. On the downside, that's 6 trips to the bowels of Scotland next season. And with Dundee, Falkirk and Stirling it leaves only Ross Co and QoS as any kind of a decent awayday next year. Gouuted that sectarian Dick's team made it up to Div 2. Boo!!!

Pie Of The Month Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Has there been a worse league for away trips? 6 trips to Fife 2 to the middle of nowhere outside Falkirk 2 trips to the £19 entry Dens Park where you get treated like crap and are offered overpriced catering 2 trips to the awful Greenock Dumfries and Dingwall just about make it bearable.

Chuffed that the Blue Brazil have come up, and will be great to see DL back at Firhill, I'm sure he will get a rousing welcome (Just leave the 3 points behind each time you visit though Danny ) There will be a lot of travelling east and north east next season, and not that many fill me with enthusiasm so can see me passing on a sizeable percentage of them. Too many of the same old teams, nazi stewarding and crap away days makes the expense and (lack of) enjoyment of them not worth it. Has there been a worse league for away trips? 6 trips to Fife 2 to the middle of nowhere outside Falkirk 2 trips to the £19 entry Dens Park where you get treated like crap and are offered overpriced catering 2 trips to the awful Greenock Dumfries and Dingwall just about make it bearable. We are in dire need of league expansion, and with our looming price increase, I don't expect away (or home) fans to be flocking to Firhill either next season. Too many of the same mind-numbing trips and teams, which hardly changes season to season. And if the 14 team SPL gets the green light, what's the betting all the SFL will do is admit two new teams and keep the 3 leagues of 10?

Only thing vaguely positive I can think of is that those stay away from Firhill fans we hear about will have less to enthuse about regarding those oh so enjoyable away days. That said of the three Fife venues we'll visit I'm fairly certain Cowdenbeath will be the most enjoyable. That's not exactly saying a lot though.

It is absolutely rubbish for away games next season, apart from County and Queens they are mince. I don’t see myself going to many of the second round of away games apart from those 2. No doubt somehow we will be up at Dingwall midweek and be down at a Dumfries on a Sunday when there is no trains. And Dundee can shove their £19 entry fee, that is insane.

Vom Itorium Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Maybe it's time that we forgot about the away days and all concentrated on getting to every home game and keeping all our money in our own club instead of going a great way to helping run the other clubs. I doubt I'll make many away days at all next season and certainly won't be adding to the coffers of the likes of Dundee or Dunfermline.

I go to every home game and the majority of away games, decent away trips are what make being a football supporter worthwhile in my opinion.

They were promoted in 69-70 as we were relegated. We went back up the following season, and they were relegated. 1969-70 - Division 1, Division 2 1970-71 - Division 1, Division 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert's Ghost Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Anyone know when we last played at Central Park? By my reckoning our last 3 meetings have been at Firhill. Two good wins and a horrible 1-0 defeat in the cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two good wins and a horrible 1-0 defeat in the cup. I've never been. I do remember seeing us playing them when I was a little nipper standing with my old man on the fringe of the shed, I only remember cause I was sure him calling them 'The Blue Brazil' was just a terrible dad joke for years after and was amazed when I found out it was true.

sandy Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 I've never been. You are not missing much. Central Park is fairly unmemorable; the speedway track around the pitch means the terracing is some distance from the players. I once spent a winter mid-week evening there watching Cowdenbeath play East Fife...never felt so cold ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
