No axe to grind here at all

But when a well known quiet little club is threatened with relegation to obscurity you have to feel for their long suffering fans 

True the pyramid system is supposed to be for the good of football in Scotland. 

One of the teams likely to beat them does not really want league status. The other comes from a City which has enough league teams already

I could see the outcry if one of Scotland's most famous clubs Queens Park had come bottom of League 2

Surely there is room in League 2 for Montrose and any other team good enough to compete at that level of football

It's not as though throwing Montrose on the scrap heap is really necessary

Dougal has a point that cant really be refuted. This kind of league structure should have been in place many, many years ago. The Highlands may well have had quite a few teams developing in to bigger outfits. I would have said that many would have said the same thing about ICT in 1994.

 

What about Brora Rangers ? If they beat Montrose are they going to do anything or are they going to be the perennial strugglers ?

Unlucky Brora, Montrose been a different team lately with the new manager. Should have seen it out going 2-1 up on aggregate in second half but for a sending off. 

 

Montrose had there biggest crowd for many a year!
