    Last season was done. What happened has no bearing on now. If the leagues get extended then Bonnyrigg Miss out on goal difference. Utter shambles. Brora winning a league based on goal difference after 3 games when another team hadn’t played 1 game is embarrassing.

    Kelty had played 1 other top 5 side and lost it. Winning a league based on a schedule.

    It’s easier to understand if you look at it as Brora being nominated to take part in the playoffs rather than being lauded as League Champions.

    At the expense of every other side in the league based on 3 games (and none for one side). Nothing anyone will say will make that sound ok.

    As for the lowland league, the rule was passed at the start of the season that if less than 50% of games had been played then it would be voided. Money talks.

    Are the other clubs in the Highland League all kicking off about it?

    They certainly should be. The sides down the bottom probably couldn’t care less though.

    How can someone win a league without at least 1 cycle of games being played, let alone home & away?

    I think the sensible decision would have been to make season 20/21 null and void, but nominate Brora on the basis that they missed out last season.

    As has been pointed out, it's farcical that anyone has been declared champion.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

    Blackpool were top of the league in 1939 when the league in England was suspended after 3 games due to WW2. On this news I've penned a letter to the FA.

    No one yet, League 2 teams saying they shouldn’t be allowed to participate in the Play offs, because the season wasn’t completed

    Strathspey would have reeled the other teams in.😁 Seems a strange decision after 3 games.
