Guest Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Well that would have been easy enough said, feel its just a chance to ridicule and attack anyone daring to question 'the way it is'. Again promise I won't be the only person with similar questions. Is it like the hounds smell blood or something? when everyone takes turns at posting your stupid, backwards and some sort of co conspirator?Really? Alternatively, people have spent time and effort posting it and are frustrated when people go about finding out the lazy way and expect everyone else to do their work for them.If I can find the information you seek then I would be really, really surprised if you couldn't, given technology isnt really my thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A surprising response from you, to an important post about Thursday's key meeting. Especially as I thought we were both advocates of the same pyramid outcome !!!

So then everyone will be applying on the idea that it will be Conferences anyway. Indeed there's nothing more that can be done until we know the exact numbers who apply/are accepted. So they may as well state now that it's a single division or conferences if need be. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said I'm not the type to set all the curtains in the house on fire while trying to add an extension. Im about as far from a 'blazer' as you can get yet here I am accused as a stupid co-conspirators pedling misinformation when asking related questions. They might be stupid to someone with 2000 pages worth of posts but aware I'm far from the only one with them. Good to hear of your dedication and concerns. I suspect that matters will become much clearer once the WR Juniors give the details of their proposals on Tuesday and the Lowland/EoS/SoS do much the same on Thursday. Your clubs' representative should be approached ahead of these meetings with your questions so he/she can raise them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ilford Drummer Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 (edited) Would conferences be decided on location? Eg Clydebank Pollok Benburb Beith Kilwinning Largs Talbot Cumnock Glenafton Or something similar?

Given some of the social media statements by people allegedly promoting the Juniors wish to control a Tier 6 League/Divisions in the west it may be a good thing if such individuals were present so that they could express their views etc. I don't doubt that those organising the Thursday meeting would deal with this appropriately/proportionately. It could help to filter the mud from the waters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if they do it in the same way as they did in the EOS, it will be seeded. For example, if all West Premiership clubs applied, the top seeds will be the teams who finished 1st - 3rd this season, second seeds will be teams finishing 4th - 6th and so on. Non-WRJFA applicants will then be treated separately in terms of seeding. Edit: just to add, this is to balance the conferences so they are of equal strength, which is the fairest way to decide the clubs in the WoSFL Premier. Regional conferences could get lopsided meaning that some clubs that are strong enough for the Premier division wouldn't make it and vice versa.

If this is what happens it will also put those clubs which may not wish to move next season in a position that they should know that they will start at the very bottom at a later date. At least they would know that. No excuses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps you should ask your club's representative this, and any other, question which is concerning you. If they attend both Tuesday and Thursday's meeting he/she will be able to give you direct feed-back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeded conferences are the quickest way to get everyone to their level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I'm not sure Inanimate Carbon Rod was being serious. Partly, but that geographic split would actually yield fairly ok seeded conferences. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
