Blue White Dynamite Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 If I was on the SFA board and there were a lot of licensing applications from EoS clubs I know where I’d be putting them!So basically the clubs who have done the work to get their applications in and all the work done to meet the standards should be punished? That’s a frankly shocking attitude to take. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was before Maxwell's time. Id that what you call a "directive"? because as you have found out it's pretty meaningless, there has to be agreement and consensus at PWG, there isn't. If the SFA Board were able to issue "directives" which carried weight, Rangers and Celtic Colts would be starting next season in League Two. They're not, because SPFL clubs rejected the plan. You, as a Clydebank board member and deferred EoS applicant, need to be careful with your continual ridiculous criticisms of the EoS. They ratified that the West/East Juniors were to go into the pyramid at tier 6 before the October e mail. You don’t like it but that’s what happened !

Cyril Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 20 minutes ago, Kilbowie Benches said: Because they had a board meeting and ratified it,hence Maxwells e mail in October. All it’s been since then is the EoSL trying to come up with the same old tired points which have all been resolved with SFA staff. If I was on the SFA board and there were a lot of licensing applications from EoS clubs I know where I’d be putting them! What an utterly absurd way of looking at things, clubs have spent thousands of pounds on and off the pitch to get their licences. As inept as the SFA are I don't think they would share this stupid attitude just because the EOS member clubs rejected a silly proposal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz5 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 It is an SFA board directive,read the minutes of the PWG. You’re getting angry at the wrong people! And yet you can't answer the question as to what the SJFA have contributed or conceded to in negotiations. Telling. I would like to build 4 new houses in your street. One of them will be in your garden. The local council said this would be acceptable to them, but I have to clear it with you and your wife/husband/significant other first. I now have a directive to build 4 houses, including one in your garden and if you don't let me your are being obstructive. The other 3 would actually raise the value of your property. Do you: a. Say "no, f**k off you can't build any houses"b. Say "ok, you can build the other 3, but not the one in my garden"c. Aye crack on, whack then in and stick a house on my front grass. That is essentially your stance here, put into the most ridiculous example I can think of. You think the EoS should answer c), you are claiming they are answering a), when in reality what they are saying is "we'll compromise, it's b). As they say that, you think it's entirely ok for the other party to insist on c) and claim the EoS is being obstructive to the juniors. [emoji846] The reality is opposing a stupid idea and having an alternative middle ground isn't obstructive. The other party but being willing to acknowledge that the idea is batshit crazy and compromise for everyone, including their own members, benefit, is obstructive. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SJFA contribution is thst they are bringing the biggest and best non league clubs from the most populated area of the country into the national pyramid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All they need to do is say "OK, we acknowledge the issue in the East, we will defer that for further discussion for a season, would you let the West in from next year?".100% everyone says yes to that.You are, indeed, angry at the wrong people.

Shame for you that's it's still not happening. I don't think many of the east juniors left are bothered by pyramid so why are you getting uptight about something that doesn't affect you.

GNU_Linux Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 If this is all 'agreed' & sorted how come the LL advert for its vacancy on both the SFA & LL site mention the existing boundry of the Tay? To add the ERJFA in wholesale that boundry would need to be moved north & theres been nothing regarding moving it by the Professional Game Body (HL, LL & SPFL) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz5 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Except that the SFA have already agreed to the West /East Juniors going in.[emoji846]Except they haven't, they've asked the current league's to consult their membership about the proposal on the table and the ones we know about, LL and EoS have quite rightly rejected by 54-0. That's a 100% rejection.That rejection is based on 2 things:1. Overlapping geographical East league2. Separate disciplineBoth of those things are in the SJFA's gift to discuss and resolve.There not interested.So, I say again, the only people stopping your big West teams from being in next year are the SJFA.I'd they even concede the first point for further negotiation, the SFA would agree and so would everyone else. Or do you think the SFA would say "naw, it's all or nothing in this plan" like they care about the juniors any more than they do their current member league's? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West will get in it just needs all parties just to accept south of Tay East teams join or stay where they r out of the pyr amid it's not hard. West should be in no bother 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
