@dutchbankie @bordersbankie 😳

@bordersbankie I notice a lot of errors these days. This was from October 2020.

I can understand an individual posting this but a newspaper really ought to be able to proofread their tweets. *closures *month *diversions.

@TerraceTrails @OfficialSLFL @EastScotlandFA How the season played out - four teams above them.

@RedFlagBankie @OfficialSLFL @EastScotlandFA let’s see how the season plays out.

Here are my predictions for 2025/26 season league winners in @OfficialSLFL & @EastScotlandFA 🏆 Lowland League - Caledonian Braves EoS Premier League - Musselburgh Ath EoS First Division - Heriot Watt Uni EoS Second Division- Harthill Royal EoS Third Division - Hawick RA

@OfficialSLFL Very good summary. The title race has been very exciting and it is only with two games left that the four teams have been reduced to three. Saturday’s game at Prestonfield could well determine the outcome, indeed it could be won on the day. Well done to all of the teams involved.

With Tranent’s draw last night, the Belters are effectively out of the running, but Clydebank, Linlithgow Rose or Bonnyrigg Rose could take it! Chris from @OfficialCatchup is here to take you through the ins and outs of the most exciting Lowland League title race EVER! 🔗👇

@haveigotnews Pathetic

Kanye West has been banned from entering the UK to play Wireless Festival, as it would have been terrible to have a prominent public figure going round Finsbury Park condoning antisemitism

@plyons45 River Plate are known as the South American Bankies 😁

The Scottish River Plate 🙏

@heraldscotland Albion Rovers had a much bigger crowd the week before when they played Clydebank in the league.

'Celtic brought a great fanbase with them' 👇

@scotsunsport There was a far bigger crowd at the stadium the week before when Albion Rovers played Clydebank. No interruption to play caused by away fans that day.

Celtic ultras the Green Brigade 'pay opposition players' wages for a month' #Echobox=1775481590" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/16123635…

Total. Football. Bankies. 🤩

@aphyTTR2 You are a sociopath.

Have started eating sausages in a much more considered manner. Let me know what you all think x

@TranentFC Saturday is the 4th April, not the 5th.

@OfficialCatchup The fixture secretary has played a blinder! The last three Saturdays sees the top six only playing each other. It is going to be some finish!

Catchup TOTM for March - Special Mentions.

@ARFCOKAY @E19177 Love it! The televised game I think? 4-3 Bankies, Eadie with a late winner.

Let’s take it retro. Up next: Clydebank(H) 1pm kick off Club Bar will be open from 11:15am

@ARFCOKAY Two in-form teams! Last game between the two was a thriller, hoping for the same again.

3 points for the Coatbridge’s finest tonight. Up next a big one: Clydebank(H) 1pm kick off, nothing to do this Saturday? Join us for a big game

@ARFCOKAY We are in very good form just now, scoring 19 goals in our last three games while conceding just 1. Looking forward to visiting you and showing solidarity in your struggle against those who think football clubs are a franchise to be bought and reshaped against the fans’ wishes.

We play this lot next weekend lmao

@AnasSarwar Dear Anas - this is my stroke face. Stroke in January 2021. Glad you think it is funny to laugh at stroke survivors.

New hope. New leadership. A new direction for Scotland.

@WingsScotland Yes, if only there was an alternative surface which wouldn’t turn to mush.

I hope this football match doesn’t interfere too much with this year’s tattie crop at Tannadice.

@JordanAR1995 Celtic would definitely take this - Rangers , Hearts and Motherwell at home.

I asked AI to generate a fixture list using the realistic permutations involved and I hope the Scottish football overlords are reading... 🍿 This split would be blockbuster!

⚽ A big thanks to Frank and the team at Scottish Highers Online for sponsoring Saturday's signed ball. 🧑‍🎓 Scottish Highers Online provide a flexible and accessible platform to study for the SQA’s National Qualifications which are required for entry to Higher Education.

Huge gamble by Sarwar which I believe will backfire. I suspect Sarwar will be gone before Starmer.

@fitbatweets Not a penalty. The attacking player jumps into the defender and then throws himself down.

No VAR to save you this time Clancy.
