Pyramidic Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 My questions are: "Why have the SJFA and in particular the WRJFA been so inept in moving the current 63 WR members and the existing league format across to the Pyramid?" "The latest and final attempt by the SJFA/WRJFA appears to have been a complete failure and it is questioned whether this leaves the only way forward for Largs and other West Region clubs is to join the LL/EoSFL initiated WoSFL?" "What happens if we miss the boat and remain in a rump SJFA and WRJFA?" "What will be the consequences?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyramidic Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Another offering from the "Pyramid side of the world" that both the Lowland League and EoSFL have taken full advantage of. If Kilwinning Rangers or Clydebank can get into the Lowland league for 2021/22 I would suggest that there would be an early demand for a Groundhop fixture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginaro Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Rosyth at least seem to have a grasp on the situation. We are on course for the top 3 in the 2016-17 East Superleague to each gain promotion in successive seasons, a shame that it came at a cost of all the disrupted seasons but hey what can you do... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the answer is "no efforts" It's time the SJFA changed the habit of a lifetime and were honest and open with its members. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats not going to happen. Its looking likely that most of the teams will move from the top league if not all. With some from other divisions. A lot of the smaller teams will want to remain juniors. Not sure some of the smaller west juniors if all went in and it was conferences would enjoy getting hammered . The thing is big Tam could have had it all his own way had he adopted the pyramid earlier the Juniors could have been the pyramid. It might have needed a west/east super league but now a once great institution is going to die a slow painful death. As much as people might not think it would sadden me but it does 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will obviously depend upon who are the first winners of the WoSFL (assuming they are Licensed and gain promotion to the LL). I just quoted Kilwinning Rangers & Clydebank as they appear to be most willing to "nail their colours to the mast". NB: Bonnyrigg Rose are included in the current hop while playing in the LL. A promoted club from the WoSFL would represent an attractive floodlit Friday night Hop fixture IMO.

not man of the match Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I was told a few days ago that the plan is only 16 clubs for the WoSL in the beginning. This talk of 30/40 is confusing me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They accepted everyone. If I remember correctly, the first figure that was stated was the EoS would only allow 3 applicants. That in order to get a 16 team division with the 12 existing members (less promoted Kelty) & relegated Hawick. That figure was only 23 off reality... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
