What an EOSFL could look like if we merged next season

Recommended Posts

I was having a look at how pyramid could look for the East if we just merged with EOSFL for next season. Working on that Hawick would be relegated and Kelty promoted I thought it could look like this. COme the end of the season West of Scotland, South of Scotland Champions could play for west winners and promotion into Lowland League and EOSFL split North and South could do the same with 2 coming down from Lowland League and two going up. This is how a merged EOSFL could look

Could you align it with the six SFA regions?

Probably not - although North is fine, and East/West can combine their two SFA regions, Central is the problem. It contains clubs from both East and West - e.g. Camelon and Kirkintilloch are both Central region clubs.

I'd suggest a full East Region league at tier 6, then either another full region or begin the north/south split at tier 7 etc. You could also turn the question around and ask, where would the 13 EoS teams fit into the current Junior setup?

Too big a geographical area from Tayside to Tweedmouth

Still probably more manageable for the Tayside clubs than going North. But then if you put in a Central Region as suggested above, Dundee (and Angus), Perth, Falkirk and Stirling could maybe make that feasible?

Could two East diddies from the SFL2 not get put in there somewhere and allow a couple of Junior teams up?
