Was submitted after the meeting and is on the draft agenda for the AGM All clubs have been notified of this.

Surprisingly no mention of this proposed rule change for next months AGM. Could save 2 of the teams involved in the relegation dogfight if this goes ahead. So going to finish our season on 27th May and by 11th June AGM we could be relegated having fought all season to get out the bottom six. NEW RULE: G - RELEGATION TO 4th DIVISION FOR SFA LICENSED CLUBS Insert new rule Existing WoSFL teams with an SFA License cannot be relegated to Division 4 from Division 3. This rule change to be implemented for the start of next season. Proposed: Carluke Rovers FC, Seconded: Gartcairn FC apparently the intention is to bring this in immediately, surely this can’t be right!

I'm sorry but when you join a league that's what you sign up for, not bale out as soon as you are unable to win anything. We can't all be winners but if everyone was to take that attitude then there would be no league at any grade. What about the clubs that have already played Pollok and forked out for pitch hire, all for nothing now. If the league is going to work and grow clubs must stand by their commitment at the start of the season. Its all very well saying that the players will not be lost to the club, its the integrity of the league that's at stake.
