Question: Someone suggested on the pie and bovril forum last week that it would be financial suicide for Cowden to win promotion to division 1 Hopefully this cannot be true We have looked to be one of the best teams in the league so far and promotion must be a possibility. Ive attended every league game this season except Alloa (h) and Brechin (a) but Iwouldnt like to think Im supporting a team who dont want promotion.

Answer: The same rumour comes around every time Cowden are doing well.  There are pros and cons in everything in life and football is no different. Some aspects of going into a higher division may create difficulties whereas others are exciting and produce opportunities.  We, of course, were unexpectedly promoted, and it’s true that consolidation in the 2nd Division is our primary aim.  We are concentrating on dealing with the various issues that impact on the club at this moment in time and are just very happy to leave the football to Danny and the team.
