Superb result for Talbot but c'mom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNU_Linux Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Update from the most recent PWG. Two others have echoed hearing the same Heard that the last PWG meeting on 7th January resulted in next to no progress, and disagreements were aired (no idea what). Rules and regs far from being integrated, and still no plan on the table, let alone any sort of agreement to involve the SJFA in the LL play-offs. Sounds like 50/50 whether there will be any Juniors in the Pyramid at all next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over half the season played and they've only lost two matches, one of which was in the group stages of a competition they ended up winning anyway.They shouldn't be taken as an example of the health of the junior game. Even in the same league we have a club whose financial dealings with organised crime are casting doubt on their future, and another club who are having to move to a sports club next season in order to survive. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilbowie Benches Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 The Juniors is great for Talbot as they can have their cake and eat it! They get cash every year from the big Scottish which keeps them ahead of everyone else so they win the league or cup every season and so it continues. For everyone else it’s not a level playing field.The sooner there’s a LL2 or a seperate WoS senior league the better imo. Either that or get the West Juniors into the pyramid and take away Scottish Cup entry for non licensed clubs. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm? Very much agreed with the general posts by the way - saying Talbot's (excellent) result is proof positive of the state of junior fitba is heads in sand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built up off the back of senior Scottish Cup money! How much did they make from the Hearts game? Not jealous of them one bit,they are totally unambitious and should be made to choose between progression and cash.Not get both.

They aren’t the exact model of club i’d like us to be, however they could be an ideal standard for other clubs and fair play to them for it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talbot dominated the juniors long before they got into the Scottish cup and if they are so unambitious how come they keep winning so many trophies? We have not won anything outside the central region since our return to the juniors so much for our ambition. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnie_man Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 Looks like more than a few Junior clubs who want access to the Pyramid from next season will have a decision to make soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were not in the Scottish Cup every year as we don't win the Junior Cup or league every year. Our supporters are very generous and our fund raising is second to none. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNU_Linux Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 The scaremongering continues.no scaremongering. The EOS documentation posted clearly shows the 'juniors at tier 6' as fact is an unfounded claim off the back of an email from October. Theres roughly two PWG meetings before the EOS 31st March deadline. If no or little progress has been made in the PWG meetings before (4 or 5) I don't foresee it getting sorted in the next two. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t quite say that. It says it could be passed at an SFA board meeting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EoS are saying that they have a veto on any change because any change on pro/rel related to the Lowland League has to be agreed unanimously by all the parties that are already in the pyramid that are directly affected (i.e. LL, EoS and SoS). The EoS are saying that they would decide on any proposal on this either through their board or at their AGM but either way member clubs would be consulted.
