Carlos99 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Getting back to this threads title,I'd say from the juniors games I've seen this season in the East Prem league then the future is bleak indeed,the standard is no better than the amateurs.It's sad to see but in the last couple of seasons there's been a gradual decline in the playing standards to where we are now and really things cannot get much worse.Don't know the answer but it seems sadly there's not enough talent in the playing pool. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't help that a significant proportion of the teams and players in the East Region left. I'd say that has more to do with the drop in standard than anything else - there are clubs at the 'Premier' level that are not 'Premier' standard. How they could retain the 'Super' title this year is beyond me. This season's East region set-up is a novel curiosity but may prove to be little more than a death rattle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 How many "South of Tay" clubs are left in the Juniors? 18 I think? Wonder how many will be there the start of next season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder how many will be there the start of next season 20 below the LL dividing line. Though Luncarty and Tayport are a few hundred metres north and south of the line respectively, so maybe they'd want to be on the other side. https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1k4xWEiA6DvPhdnfOqT835ybt52xQ4Grr&ll=56.11420872323968%2C-3.263534160922859&z=10 It would be good if the seven teams in South Fife moved over together, even more local derbies with Rosyth/Inverkeithing and Burntisland/Kirkcaldy. You'd think if one of Glenrothes/Kennoway/Thornton announce their move others would follow. Maybe the EOS could ask these clubs before the membership application deadline if they'd like to bring about a quick end to the Fife Juniors rather than having its slow death dragging on for another season...

Im not sure ifor it would benefit Kinnoull and scone to come. Tayport identify more with Tayside but think be better joining 17 Fife and Lothians clubs in eosfl 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanCamelonfan Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I'd like to see the rest of East come over so we can settle down. I'd like west to come over but I won't lose sleep if they put the grade before better organisation for the same teams as it would be for them. For us we have new teams a few good and the rest will get a level where they aren't taking tankings. Futures bright futures eosfl even if it ends up only licensing winners of leagues which may happen still for me the organisation of the leagues are far superior 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Lowland context, the bridge is not that relevant beyond being the boundary - there has to be a cut-off between Highland and Lowland and the SFA have chosen Dundee to be part of the Highland catchment, but Perth to be Lowland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
