oneteaminglasgow Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 I think Fort’s complaint has merit. I mean, getting relegated simply because you’ve consistently stank out the division over a period of 20 or 30 years is completely over the top. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dev Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Even though Fort look as though they will be in the NCL next season is there any chance that you can keep post complaining about them on their own thread please? It is spoiling the NCL thread. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 The FW is issue literally about NCL expansion and far more relevant than the usual pish on this thread about made up teams maybe applying. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWeatherFan Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 I doubt Fort William will merit a club thread of their own for much longer. I'm sure the football hipsters/groundhoppers will soon change their allegiance to Orkney or the return of Scourie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's naw gonnae change is it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether they put a stamp on the envelope, or the crayon-strewn list of complaints in the envelope in the first place, or to whom the address on the front listed as the recipient, that's all TBC at this point. Dear SFA, We wuz bullied by the HFL bullies. It'S nOt FaiR!!!!!1!! Regards, Fort William FC MON THE FORT!

I understand that Lewis & Harris FC have not as yet signalled entry into any of the NCA/NCL cup competitions for 2022/23. The Non League Scotland website has not yet realised that Clach Reserves' application to join the North Caley League for next season, was agreed at the NCL's AGM on 7th June. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclizine Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 The NCL have announced that their champion club will gain entry to the Scottish Cup. Invergordon will enter this coming season. Excellent news and brings the NCL in line with the other Tier 6 leagues. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dev Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 (edited) Maybe with the Champions guaranteed entry, regardless of being licenced or not, will this give some food for thought to clubs not currently in the NCL i.e. about joining the league? I am thinking about clubs from the western parts of the North Juniors and others which have not previously considered it worthwhile moving from Summer football. It may give a boost to some clubs which have intentions to improve their facilities or are already on that route. Maybe they will be able to better access Grant Aid in future. Taking the long view this could be a game changer for the NCL. Edited June 23, 2022 by Dev . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How likely are they to make it past the qualifying rounds? Doubt it makes much difference. Orkney vs Newton Stewart is a fixture to look forward to though, especially if it gets postponed and they have to play it on the next available weeknight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWeatherFan Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Prelim exit last season was £2,200. 1st Round exist £5,000 plus they'd be due travel expenses for an away game. As a qualifier they wouldn't be eligible for a bye but there's still enough randoms in the Prelims they could pick up a win. Considering NCL attendances are well under a 100. I doubt many clubs would object to the payday. Quite rare for postponements in August/September but you never know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
