There are no south east clubs as they are in the EoSL !!

If they are east Fauldhouse they are in the east. If they are south the Lothians they are in the south. So they must be south east. What else could they be?

They can have a plan for any league they want but if the members of said league go nah! Balls burst then it’s not happening.

best chance for west is to go it alone, as sjfa won’t tell east region to join eosl if they want to join pyramid until that happens nothing is changing because eosl ain’t likely to vote for anything else and Am afraid the sjfa don’t actually have a say in who gets promoted to the  LL, they missed that boat some years ago.

 

 

You are assuming that there will be a vote and that the EoS have a veto.

They do.  Also surely you can't be that stupid to think if things happen the way you are saying then surely we would have an announcement by now. We've had 3 meetings since for gods sake. Get your head out the sand. Your holding the game back

Tweedmouth,Coldstream,Hawick etc should be in the SoSL by your reckoning then?

No.

I'm not the one arguing SOS teams should be classified as "West".

I understand that the West Region management committee are meeting next week to discuss the pyramid and the disciplinary procedures.

When the West Region changed their league structure to 4x16 last season, presumably they didn't have to get approval from the SJFA? So if there's no progress by the SJFA on getting all the clubs into the pyramid, then what's stopping the WR doing it themselves? If they went to the LL with all their rules sorted and a commitment to finishing the season on time, then surely it's likely the LL would change their promotion/relegation to accommodate the WR - especially as the EOS would have no objection.

FWIW, Fort William have only finished bottom once in the past four years. But yeah.

And what, fourteen or fifteen years in the last twenty? Being marginally less gash than one or two other sides a couple of times a decade can hardly be defined as thriving.

If the HFL was ever opened out to to the potentiality of relegation they wouldn't last long, so my initial point stands.

the idea of no longer being 'junior' scares some people to death like going senior will somehow change things for the worst and the sky will start raining blood. I personally don't see what the sjfa would do sans the junior cup & my own preference is for west juniors to become a wosl, an independant regional league like the EOS etc. These leagues don't need a middle man between them & the SFA so why would the west need one. Don't think it'll happen though.

You state “they do” without any evidence!

We've been here before, there has to be agreement as has been pointed out. You seem keen to swallow anything your fed without question.

Where is the proof of this rule which states there has to be agreement.

It must be written somewhere?
