There's two ways you can look at conference leagues the premier club's finances may be down for a season or two so will have to cut their cloth to suit? But the so called lesser club's will get a boost from increased attendances so it's not all doom and gloom . Also what you will find moving association's is not about one of two season's it about long term stability in an association that shows it cares and is willing to help their member club's thrive.

Football aside, How would you sell it to supporters that their club will lose substantial amounts of money and players, so that civil service and who ever else can get big gates for a while? -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll have their core support that turns up to every game. The bump in attendance every once in awhile by a big club or big game would be partially alleviated by the way the fixtures would be handled around international weekends, festive season and not having Junior Cup postponements rolling on for a couple of weeks. Plus its only for a year for the bigger clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiepiyo Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I'd say it's more ignorant to not consider the financial and footballing impact as being important? These arent my paticular concerns but I certainly heard them a lot. Choice of team could be more appropriate but I dont know who has all registered an interest and was clearly just an example 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving from being outside of the pyramid to the highest level they can apply to within the pyramid? As others have said you're just posting shite to try and help your pals Ronney and Johnston.

Why is it hard for you to imagine that going to your clubs supporters saying for example, we will lose upwards of X amount in the first year if we go for this opition however in year three we may claw that back... might not be applauded? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
