I agree re-what happens to those EOS clubs who are expecting to be in an EOS premier league at tier 6, where will they go - will they be offered places in this new LL2 at tier 6 and have other West and South clubs fill in the gaps. They need to be careful not to upset these EOS clubs who trailblazed last season.

Read the previous texts. It has to be agreed by the SPFL, LL, EOS AND SOS. That has NOT happened.

I love these sorts of comments. Why dont you look at the Scottish Rugby Union set up and see that in Division THREE Orkney travel south to Carrick in Ayrshire and vice versa and many other clubs make these very long journeys on a lot less income

Should keep live telly games to those who have their own ground and don't keep moving from ground to ground methinks. Dont what your talking about. I didnt think Talbot had moved often. Ayr certainly havent????????

I actually meant the Railway end for AWAY supporters for the larger teams visiting us who do bring bigger crowd and I was talking about getting into the premier league with bigger crowds where Somerset isnt one of the bigger seated grounds. The big issue is that with a stand we could charge them more money for tickets as other clubs already do. Also such a development isnt about the here and now, it is about the longer term. I do, however, agree with you re planning permission.

Interesting article but nevertheless, wouldnt it be good if our esteemed multi million pound owner just paid for one stand to be built, around 7 mil. Maybe even just at the away end for all those large travelling fans and charge them enough to pay for the financial outlay quickly. Isnt about time we did something about additional seating?

Except if theres a WOS league set up, im sure Clydebank would go there. I saw this below from another part of the P&B site today as a though of how it might develop. This takes in Syngenta coming in and Selkirk being reformed. It doesnt mention what happens to the other junior clubs in the East.

will it not be a 16-16-16 set up?

That only works if the Colt teams contain young Scottish players and not those from other parts

Sorry all, i think a mate of mine was winding me up and I, foolishly believed him. Apologies to all

Any news??

Pardon my lack of understanding but I thought that the EOSL were already developing a league system from their three conferences and that would include a 16 team Premier League. I would have thought that this would/should form a LLEast (tier 6) below the current LL (tier 5) and so its how they develop a LLWest at tier 6 that needs to be concluded.

Id assume that the WoS league and the EoS would have their champions automatically promoted in the above scenario with the SoS being at tier 7 so they would come into it.

As a little extra I note that Kelty Hearts havent yet been added to the list of clubs competing in the League for next season, nor are they in the EoS section. Where hasd Kelty Hearts gone?

I thought thtat it had been suggested that the SoS would come in at tier 7 as a feeder to tier 6 WoS so part of the same cherry, not an extra bite
