Great to see my favourite thread back in action.
There are different ways to tackle the Tayside problem. One way would be for Tayside to form a standalone league at Tier 7 feeding into the EOSFL Premier with one promotion place. This would give the likes of Lochee United, Broughty Athletic and Carnoustie Panmure access to the EOSFL Premier but would prevent the likes of Tweedmouth Rangers having to travel to Brechin Victoria for a lower tier league match.
Further limitations could be placed on Tayside clubs if one wished in the form of a play-off system with a EOSFL Division One promotion candidate and/or EOSFL Premier relegation position club. In my view the EOSFL Premier would be stronger and even more exciting with the inclusion of one or two competitive Tayside clubs. If a Tayside club won the EOSFL they would qualify for the Lowland or Highland Play-offs dependent on whether the Brechin question had been resolved.
If a Tayside club finished in a relegation position in the EOSFL Premier the club would be relegated back to the Tayside League. In my view the suggested format would provide a simple solution to a difficult problem and would ensure inclusivity in the pyramid family.
This is the sensible alternative that I would suggest if Tayside clubs are not slotted into the Highland pyramid. I agree with others that a Midland League at Tier 6 is no longer a viable option.

Whitletts have knocked back a large cash offer from a local businessman who would've made them more successful than Talbot. Surely some other junior team will snap this up.
Bathgate Thistle would be a more exciting project for a takeover and progess a great football club into the real world. So much potential has been aborted to date.

Any non league set up that sanctions a 20 team league needs head examined imagine a junior association came up with that nonsense it would be rightly shot down in flames.
On the south league let's face it its an amateur league i've a couple of relatives who play in the league and openly agree with that nothing wrong with it not sure why anyone would be so defensive about that.
Another reincarnation and more negativity. Suggest that you do something positive like downloading the Futbology App and for £6.00 a year you can log every Junior match you have been to since you were a wean. Should give you hours of satisfaction and nostalgia. It is giving me huge entertainment during lockdown with more than 1,300 matches to log around the world.

It is hard to keep track of this one. Has anyone a list of those clubs that have declined membership of the SJFA for 2020/21?

It is amazing to see the energy and enthusiasm for the Lowland Under 20 Development League. The West are moving fast-forward out of the “dark ages”.

There would need to be compromises whichever route is followed to accommodate the Tayside clubs.
I recall a while ago (I think) you produced an example framework constitution of what the EOSFL would look like if all the East Region clubs joined the EOSFL. I wonder what the set-up would look like now? Would an expanded league be feasible in 2021/22?
