Season 62

The real-life Cowdenbeath had a respectable 2025–26 campaign. The last time I updated this, they were sitting sixth in an 18-team league before slipping to ninth as the season progressed. In the end, they finished 11th—a long way short of the promotion places, but comfortably clear of any relegation concerns.

For a club still rebuilding after dropping out of the SPFL, it was a season of stability rather than excitement. While there was never a serious promotion challenge, they were never dragged into trouble either, and the campaign represented another small step in the right direction. It also remains one of their more competitive league finishes since relegation from the Scottish league system, giving supporters hope that the foundations are gradually being put in place for a stronger push in the seasons ahead.

SESL

Season 61 ultimately turned out to be a success. We secured promotion—a fantastic achievement and one that exceeded expectations.

That said, the season was tinged with a sense of regret. At the halfway stage we were in a strong position to win the league outright, but a run of some very questionable results—yes, properly dodgy ones—completely stalled our momentum. Promotion is still a brilliant outcome.

So, what are the goals for Season 62? They're refreshingly simple: survive. We've climbed another rung up the ladder, and the priority now is establishing ourselves in the division. If we can comfortably avoid relegation, we'll consider it another successful season. Anything beyond that will be a welcome bonus

Trending in the right direction now. I'm feeling reasonably positive about my golf game. It's still a work in progress, but it's definitely heading in the right direction. There have also been some significant equipment changes. A new set of irons, wedges and a putter are all bedding in, so it's taking a little time to adjust. There have been encouraging signs, but consistency isn't quite there yet. Overall though, it feels like things are gradually coming together, and I'm optimistic that the hard work will pay off.
