Thought it was on or before 2018 if they had a license ? Think there were some SOSFL teams with a license before this date. Is there anywhere confirming confirmation of which teams can and cannot vote on their conference league ?

Only clubs that have had their SFA license after 2018 are not allowed to vote on this idiotic, corrupt idea of a conference league. Anyone got or can work out a list of the teams who are allowed to vote. All Premier League - All All Championship - Cove Rangers, when did they receive their SFA license? All First Division - Peterhead, Kelty and Edinburgh FC, when did they receive their SFA license? All Second Division - Annan, Bonnyrigg and Elgin City when did they receive their SFA license? Lowland league - Which teams have had their license since 2018? Highland League - Which teams have had their license since 2018? Tier 6 or Below - Any teams received their SFA license before 2018 including the SOSFL, anyone know? Whatever random excuse the SFA say from 2018 beyond cannot vote, the SFA knew that nearly every team would vote against this league that's why, I believe, they made the date of 2018. Just a cliquish, closed shop to stop the teams from lower down progressing.

I would love this to be true but I don't think so, if tier 6 and 7 clubs were allowed to vote I'm sure they would only make it ones with an SFA license, cause the SFA know every club tier 6 and 7 or below would vote a resounding NO. Yeah realized later that no club from tier 6 down can vote unless they have been licensed since 2018. Sounds like the SFA don't want clubs lower down having much power as if all tier 6 clubs voted then it would be a resounding NO for the conference.

I take it the vote is going to be per club and not a vote per league or association. 42 SPFL clubs and 18 highland and the 16 in Lowland, all individual votes per club. If it was a vote per league, I'd say Lowland, Highland and SPFL2 would vote against it and I'd think SPFL1 would do the same but very close. But per club, I aint sure, Hoping that the SPFL1 clubs see sense. This conference league is wrong. Someone said further up Thomas Brown Lowland league chairman has been got at and I'm sure many others have done the same. Without doubt there's many many meetings, dodgy dealings, back handers to try and get this over the line, all allegedly but we all think the same. Maxwell and Brown should resign over this. The conference is wrong and it will show Scottish Football as more corrupt that its ever been, sickening

Pmsl, its a football forum isn't it, or don't you realize that Honestly talk about cliques, you get the shit chat with the ex juniors on here who still cling to the old junior days and then you get the SPFL2 peeps who deny anything is wrong and anyone outside of the SPFL2 fans base are not allowed to make comments on whats been happening on here and who are unhappy with the new starts in the Lowland and EOSFL and WOSFL I've given basic factual information and also hypothetical ones and its not even having a dig at Albion Rovers. The no frigging idea comment is two fold ffs, yes I do not know what the committee, chairman have done to improve the situation they found their selves in for many years but it does look from the Outside that nothing has been done to improve Albion Rovers. . First of all thanks for the comment about their Scottish cup run, that means they were trying but If AR went hyper and tired everything then it means that Albion were just not good enough for this level anymore and will find their level

No lecturing the committee, clearly they have problems, finishing bottom this year, 3rd bottom the previous year and then 4th bottom the year before that. Whatever they have done in those years has not been enough and the warning signs were there. Regards bringing fans in, More can always be done to bring in new blood and not just AR but also every club in Scotland but that's only a snippit, there's sponsorship can always be bettered, community interest/inclusion can be looked at, any idea and all ideas can help. Have the committee of AR done all that, I have no frigging idea but as I said the warning signs where there for years and it seems nothing has been done about it unless they constantly tried their best but now they are relegated

The past few season, the Lowland winners have relegated club 42 and there is a good sign that this will continue for a few years as the standard of the Lowland league is rising each year. Most of the clubs in the SPFL2 have voted for no relegation but there will always be one of those clubs who end up club 42 and most don't expect them to survive against the Lowland winners. Again as this year, I expect Brechin to win the Highland league next year but will lose to the Lowland champions. So if it does go by what i expect then club 42 will spend a number of years in the Lowland as have East Stirlingshire, Berwick Rangers, Cowdenbeath have done and I don't see them being champions any time soon. SO if there was 2 up 2 down and say the 3rd bottom of the SPFL 2 end up in a playoff with 2nd place Lowland and Highland that means the former SPFL 2 clubs have more chance of regarding SPFL2 status the following year as a couple of teams can possibly can go up. it would also make it more exiting at the end of the season, the only people who wont enjoy it are the fans whose teams are relegated but that's only natural I genuinely expect Cowdenbeath, Berwick and East Stirlingshire to be stronger next year but I expect a few more teams in the lowland to be stronger that this year also

This sounds 100% correct, but if this has been a slide over the years for how long, its really up to their chairman and committee to sort it out for whatever they have been doing clearly has not been working. As you say the vast majority are not interested so the club have to figure out why, work out things like the team, the management, the players with the capitol that they have, new sponsorship etc... and work out what they have to do to get more local people involved in their club because teams lower down in the Lowland, Highland, WSFL, EOSFL and all the rest of the leagues are doing just that, they're mostly all trying to address that and get people coming through the turnstiles

I think Bring Back Paddy is alright, just taking it personal when its wrong

Yip folks, I was correct. Looks like another keyboard wizard who realize his comments are wrong or the other persons has came back with facts and or constructive comments and he just tries to put the person down by makes negative personal comments or adding images. Yip I'm sure you would do well on committee boardroom

You have just made yourself a laughing stock as well, the ex junior guys on here will be laughing like feck as I'm against it and happy its finished. No chip on my shoulder. You made a stupid comment about too many teams being relegated and there is nothing wrong with that as I had just proven to you but all you come back with it tired or personal negative comments. Do you do this on most of your posts that you disagree with, making negative comments when the person has been constructive and is right.

That shows you up so bad. You comment means someone is talking crap when the stuff I said is true and Factually true. It actually makes you come out of this not too bright, sorry not meaning it personal but I'm thinking of the Muppets and a voice comes out and then looking up in space, saying hoe hoe hoe, where did it go George

The standard of the lowland league is rising and is becoming more competitive. That is one thing, you have that then interest will rise and if you get your house in order then your team could benefit greatly. It's really open right now, it sup to Albion to embrace it and try and get people through the turnstiles, sponsorship etc... Every team will go through bad times as people see it and its then that they need to take a step back and work out what they were doing wrong

There's another dumb shit reply The WOSFL had 20 teams last season and 7 were relegated, (more than 1/3 of the league) to bring it down to 16 but one thing for sure, the league is still running, teams are doing well and it was really exciting until the last kick of the ball for all the fans, and yeah, stressful. I'm looking at this objectively and the dumb shit teams in the SPFL2 are the ones voting for no relegation and happy to be in a ten team league. It should be a bigger league, not cause i say so but it would be way better, why, so it will be more competitive with promotion and relegation to and from this division instead of playing each other too may times and get boring football
