Anychance Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 I would also be disappointed if I continued to play in the conference leagues for the past 2 years for a junior club to just jump in at the same level as me. I think kinnoul and glenrothes were very lucky getting in the same leagues as teams who have been members of the EOS for years. if you join the league you start at the bottom 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Juniors cease to be what happens to that money? Divided back up amongst the remaining member clubs? Its about a grand a club 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo'ness and Linlithgow are totally separate clubs BUT it would seem daft to allow them in under their current names. Would require reinstatement as it would be a transfer. Can assure you they sign players separately and there can be no nebulous moving from one to another without a transfer and reinstatement to Junior.

If we're taling about £1000 being a big payday, this level of football is screwed. I would imagine it would just be absorbed into the running costs of most clubs, though I do concede for the clubs ran mainly on expenses only basis it will be welcome. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then pocket 4-5 grand each and join up to the pyramid anyway 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnie_man Posted December 19, 2019 Author Share Posted December 19, 2019 Remember that the four "suggestions" are just that, some ideas to presumably generate discussion and see if there is any common ground to work on further. It's not a case of pick an option and the most popular one wins, leagues might like several of them or none at all, and I guess it's open to feeding back to PWG alternative suggestions as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dev Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Looking at the 22 East Juniors which are south of the Tay Bridge line. IF 16 of these were to make the move to the EoS then the East Juniors would be down to 22 existing clubs (6 plus 16 from north of the Tay Bridge line) plus any potential newcomers. What happens then? If I recall correctly there was one proposal which created a new Senior league for north of Tay Bridge clubs. This would have to exclude the 6 from south of the line?? as it would be in HL territory. What happens to those 6 clubs under these circumstances? If there was to be a new North of Tay Bridge League i.e. Tayside Senior League then those 16 remaining north of the Tay Bridge line clubs could do very well indeed out of it. Thinking that (Looking at the Non-League Scotland web site information) a number of them are close to Licencing standard already e.g. Broughty Athletic, Downfield Juniors, Dundee North End, Kirriemuir Thistle, Arbroath Victoria, Brechin Victoria, Coupar Angus. They could be guaranteed Scottish FA Cup entry every season plus the annual SFA associate membership fee. Also, those which remain unlicenced would have the chance of Scottish FA Cup entry if they won the league and maybe if there was a Cup for Senior unlicenced clubs as in the south? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTID Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Am I right in saying if it went to a vote now regarding the options within junior ranks, the west would outnumber east and north combined? Ie if the juniors are to have a position the west can control the outcome then it goes back to the PWG for discussion and feedback from other parties before a decision is made? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
