P.A.F.C Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Wigtown probably favourites. Good draw for Newton. St Cuthbert doomed. HibeeJibee, did it not used to be south league winners got automatic entry into 2nd round or am I just imagining this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 You're right... Top 4 non-league clubs in Scotland get to enter at R2. Previously this was winners & runners-up of HL, and winners of both EOSL & SOSL. It is now winners & runners-up of HL & LL. Furthermore, Wigtown - despite being SOSL winners - has to enter at the Preliminary stage as they're unlicensed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debian Posted July 17, 2014 Author Share Posted July 17, 2014 The licensing aspect will eventually rule out the Eos and SoS teams from participating in the SC unless they attain this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhyCantIChooseWigtown Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Must admit I thought that Banks O'Dee didn't have a licence and I also thought Dalbeattie had a licence! Must be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishyeltz Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 The licensing aspect will eventually rule out the Eos and SoS teams from participating in the SC unless they attain this. I've never understood why these teams have used their SFA handouts to pay players over the years. I can remember when Newton Stewart had a grandstand, they have never even bothered to replace it after the wind blew it down. Maybe now they will try for a licence.

Zorr-oh! Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 The licensing aspect will eventually rule out the Eos and SoS teams from participating in the SC unless they attain this. Not so, that motion was defeated at the SFA AGM, some league teams still don't have a licence so they would have been unable to take part as well. I hear that some of the big clubs voted to keep the status quo, in fact I think it was a majority decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSFC second stand was dismantled due to being unsafe c 1983 after lasting 30 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishyeltz Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 NSFC second stand was dismantled due to being unsafe c 1983 after lasting 30 years I remember looking at their ground as a teenager whilst on my Yamaha 175 trials bike. I clearly remember an old wooden stand on the ground as a pile of rubble. That was around 1977/78 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
