Linlithgow Rose denied SPFL playoff spot

Linlithgow Rose will not be participating in the current SPFL pyramid play-off season due to eligibility issues. The club announced on X that their request for a grace period to meet the requirements for an SFA bronze license was denied by the SPFL board. This refusal means Linlithgow Rose is ineligible to compete in the promotion play-offs.

Consequently, Brora Rangers, who would have faced Linlithgow Rose, have been granted a bye. They are now set to play against Edinburgh City, who are currently at the bottom of League 2. The two-legged tie between Brora Rangers and Edinburgh City will determine which team secures a place in the fourth tier of Scottish football for the upcoming season.
