Just a poll to see who you think will be voted into the SFL.

The BBC have said that a visiting committee has visited all the teams grounds and facilities and they favour Annan's bid but teams may vote against Annan because of the distance it takes to get there

not sure if i've heard that excuse used before  :024:

Apparently Spartans new ground doesn't cover all the requirements - something about fans needing to walk across the front of it to take their seats?

I, along with posters CaleyKing and Mantis, watched Edinburgh City v Clach in last seasons Scottish cup - an absolutely abysmal game.  See you next season Mantis?  :015:

waaaay!

preston athletic!

:022:!

See you next season Mantis?  :015:

Aye right.

I've got the marks from last time - quite interesting, I'll try to post them later. Mantis Jr is hogging the Mac playing World of Warcraft. 24 years old for fexake.

Annan Athletic are the newest member of the SFL. Well done and welcome to ****.

Fair enough, one team from the deep south west replaced by another from the same neck of the woods. At least they wont be "living the dream".

Was it Annan that we beat 8-1 in the cup years ago?

Surely not many SPL clubs can claim to have beaten them.

Yep, that was Annan. I remember i took someone to that game who hadn't been before and stated ICT would bang a few goals in and stroll to an easy win, followed a few minutes later by Annan opening the scoring :029: Obviously got better from there

Congratulations to Annan Athletic on being elected to the SFL. Bit of a shocker that one as I really thought Spartans would do it but they went out in the first round of voting.

Annan's first game as an SFL side will be at the ice station to take on Clyde in the challenge cup.
