lowenan Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 The EOS Premier next season will be the place to be. Very competitive, fairly local, with lots of historic rivalries, and well supported. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of teams up and down the country that would be happy with 10% of that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that's a much better comparison for Bo'ness v Eyemouth. Maybe someone in the Juniors should do what is being done in the LL/EOS/SOS - ask people to do headcounts or get clubs to publish their attendances so we can have a better idea of just how big or small some of these clubs are. Beith did that two seasons ago (league average of 276). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beith did that two seasons ago (league average of 276). The Buchanhaven crowd was very healthy. Don't have the figure to hand just now but it was nowhere near as bad as some of the Sectional ones can be (183 midweek v Rossvale this year for example). Video footage here - certainly in the c500 bracket I'd say. Edited February 18, 2019 by cmontheloknow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although going by their website it seems quite random when they are included in the match reports. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm working on getting them all for this season. Just a question of committee passing them along. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most in the north region will be getting 1/10th of that. West region guys don't seem to realise how poor attendances are in other regions. I counted 60 at Glenrothes v Kirrie Thistle on Saturday, which is including everyone outside the pitch, so also the committee members. That's no exception in the East Superleague this season, barring a few better supported teams. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my view, it is time for the ambitious East Region junior clubs to move to the EoS, where there are new challenges on the pitch : pyramid promotion, new sponsorship opportunities, chance to play against Lowland clubs in the south cup, rejoin former East junior colleagues, plan to get licensed for annual Scottish Cup entry, less travelling, under 20's league, higher attendances, etc. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relevant as if it went through everyone gets bumped down a tier + LL & HL would have vacancies. LL gaps could get filled easy enough, HL less so 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12 Angry Men Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 (edited) What has recently been posted over in the East of Scotland forum may be informative on this thread. With uncertainty remaining over Juniors participation in the Pyramid, marked by the polarised opinions of both sides, West Lothian and Fife clubs have a window of opportunity to guarantee Pyramid participation, should they wish it, by moving to the EoSFL. The posts I have linked here set out just what the future might look like for those ERSJFA clubs south of the HL/LL boundary that are willing to grasp such opportunity and make the move that so many of their colleagues did in the summer. Access to the Pyramid is on offer, fluid movement up and down divisions is on offer and a healthy proportion of local football is on offer. As is stated by Black & Red Socks, a transitional season is likely to be needed and some tweaking of the regions too, but the chance is there for ambitious clubs to take control of their own destiny and make their own choices. Surely that chance is better than waiting for the SJFA to negotiate something unsatisfactory - or perhaps impossible - on their behalf or waiting for the ERSJFA to come up with a suitable league structure for those teams south of the Tay that is difficult to reconcile with the number of Tayside clubs populating their present top division? https://www.pieandbovril.com/forum/index.php?/topic/258689-pyramid-20192020/&do=findComment&comment=12746634 https://www.pieandbovril.com/forum/index.php?/topic/258689-pyramid-20192020/&do=findComment&comment=12746807 Edited February 20, 2019 by 12 Angry Men 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
