North Berwick, the only place in the UK officially still at war with Russia...now there's a quiz question for you!!
Not quite correct. North Berwick is a village in Scotland, on the coast SE of Edinburgh. Completely different place to the border town of Berwick-upon-Tweed which is the place left off the list of territories that Her Britannia Majesty reigned over in the peace treaty that ended the Crimean War.

That’s the whole point of Scottish football Pete. Follow one of their clubs so Town don’t seem so bad. 😆

How do they decide which team plays off against the bottom team in the SPL Jock. Do the winners of the Highland League and the Lowland League have a play-off themselves to decide? Also are Auchinleck able to get into The Lowland League or not?
The Highland League and Lowland League winners have a play-off to decide who plays-off against the bottom SPFL team. No way for a Junior Football side like Auchinleck to get into the SPFL as it stands. They are outside the Pyramid, by choice I think.

To be fair to Berwick, they lost their play off 7-0 over two games so made a good fist of it.

Winners of Highland League play winners of Lowland League for right to play off against the bottom SFL team Les. No automatic relegation from SFL to Lowland League which makes a mockery of what any Pyramid should be about.

The Juniors from the Western Super League were supposed to be joining the Pyramid set up this season. The SFL have suddenly slammed the brakes on and said "Sorry...." What appears to have happened is the self preservation of the SFL clubs who can see the time coming as to when the Pyramid is expanded to such an extent that the non league clubs will be able to outvote their League counterparts. I fully understand that, and can sympathise with it to a point, but it's just so symptomatic of how the game is administered north of the border - chaotic. All the clubs who moved out of the Juniors from the East last season have also had the brakes slammed on them with applications for ground licencing for exactly the same reason. You really couldn't make all this up.
