Will you take part in the Superleague play-off should you finish 2nd? If every club left the east juniors armadale thistle would look to be incorporated into the west junior leagues . The people who formed the club following the demise of the senior club and the many that followed have been true to the constitution ( thats the rules for any uneducated) of the club . Only the people of armadale can change that .try bringing a wee soap box to armasale cross to lobby the dale public to force change , without that the dale remains junior with a committee dedicated to the constitution of the club .

Whereas you'd be ok gaining promotion to a league with at least 4 Tayside clubs in it? That may be so but we started the season knowing what is at stake .if you dont want to progress into the superleague all you have to di is finish third .its not rocket science .we spent many years in the east premier filled with tayside and fife clubs ,one season our nearest rivals were rosyth .we got on with it , yes the cost of travel affected the playing budget but thats the league we were in .

Aye ok. With the upcoming integrated non-league system senior & junior are going to be terms/grades that dont really mean much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens when the West go Senior, and the East clubs join EoS. Will it be you on the soapbox pleading for change? Constitutions can be changed at an AGM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well clearly you're a much bigger club than Fauldhouse and the other WL clubs so good luck in your promotion quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vollyman Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 West Lothian Junior clubs are criticised for travelling to Tayside yet no mention is made of St Andrews and Jeanfield Swifts travelling to the Lothians.These clubs made a choice and good luck to them.Each club will make their own choice and it is time for people trying to coerce clubs to join the EOS stopped.

It's time that having this artificial divide between "junior" and "senior" stopped and all clubs in the same area end up in the same system. There are no differences at all between junior and senior non-league other than a meaningless label, so it's time to unite it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the whole pyramid thing has blinkered people .the juniors will be incorporated into the pyramid THIS DOES NOT MAKE THEM SENIOR. if a junior club progresses into the lowland league they will still be junior ( on the understanding that if they are relegated they will drop back into junior) likewise if kelty are relegated they will go back to EOS . Calling these leagues senior is a bit high and mighty after all , the real senior leagues are above the lowland and highland leagues . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calling these leagues senior is a bit high and mighty after all , the real senior leagues are above the lowland and highland leagues .so if the EOS, HL, LL & SOS aren't senior then what are they? They aren't junior, amateur or welfare. Senior status is usually defined as playing in a league thats in direct membership with the SFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
