To be fair i was just going by years in the top flight for example in England you look at Everton they have been in the league since the 60's ain't won F all for years and are still considered a big team or if we are talking about actual big six club's like Doddle was talking about in Scotland , Tottenham are still considered a big six team despite also not winning F all for years.

I count Rangers as being effectively the same as Glasgow Rangers. Much as Airdrieonians have also died and been resurrected under different/same names.

No argument will convince that Kilmarnock are equivalent to these listed names. It would be like saying Barnsley* are on a par with Arsenal, Liverpool, Man City etc.

*or whichever appropriate level club haven't got rabid supporters around here and can take a joke

Peter Grant is new manager at Dunfermline Athletic

Barry Ferguson new manager at Alloa Athletic

Malky McKay new manager at Ross.County

Great to have Dundee, Edinburgh and Ayrshire derbys back next season

Not trying to convince you Doddle just having my opinion and i do agree with you on the Barnsley thing you can't compare them to the teams you just mentioned i mean Barnsley are a Championship team and have been a League One side a number of times , did do well this season tho just losing out in the Championship play offs and as for Kilmarnock they was a premiership team for 20 + years.

Mark Walters - In the Footsteps of Andrew Watson
Rangers' legend recounts the struggles of his early days, and discovers the story of a black pioneer of the 1860s, who died in 1921. Graeme Souness and Archie MacPherson also recall Walters' crowd issues. Those booing players for "taking the knee" these days suggest little has really improved over the years. Souness expressed surprise when Walters recounted that his Mum (Mark's) had told him he'd have to try twice as hard to get on because of his colour, though I can't credit he'd never heard that sentiment before.

Fixtures are put for next season, Dunfermline have to go to Morton in first game.

Ayr start with an away game against Kilmarnock.

Seems it is likely season ticket holders will likely be allowed in when fans return

Alex Salmond followed up on this, via previewing tomorrow's big match with England, talking briefly to John Barnes, and at length to Mark Walters, about Andrew Watson.

Hamilton are playing Edinburgh City in the Cup later this week! Bloody hell, that went quick...

Hamilton won 1-0

Lowland League starts Saturday, with Celtic and Rangers B teams in the mix.
