Which way, up or down Lowland League plastic and caravan clubs will be outed left right and centre by the ex Juniors. Maybe a few of the Ex Seaside clubs, Berwick etc might hold on. 16 teams in the LL, by 2030 10 of them will be ex Juniors. The other 6 will be ex SFL2 clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have much time for that. Well you seem to have plenty of time to attribute absolute nonsense to me, good faith? Aye cause that's what comes across in abundance when your chomping at the bit to seemingly grass me in to faceless bullies. Anyway I still dont think saying I was part of a conspiracy with TJ and GR really resembled a credible challenge. Still find that hilarious but ruined any chance of it being a sensible debate pretty much from the off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve said “clubs haven’t been able to have a consultation with fans.” We had a public meeting. Kilbirnie did too, while the Buffs offered a question and answer session. Troon produced an excellent guide. We shared it in our own social media. Why did Talbot not have such a consultation - even during COVID-19 where they could very easily have one online? I’m still not convinced, as you’ve said here before - not elsewhere - Linlithgow and Bo’ness juniors were formed as a possible fall back option for the senior clubs. Did you really hear it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeeso man feel like a fecking political commentator rather than a fu*king football fan. Vast majority of fans haven't been consulted with, I don't understand your issue with that fact? It's really good the effort some have in short space of time, but having watched the buff's one at least, it was more about planning for the future rather than the actual implications of leaving non league football. If i was to make suggestions it would be to have cross compared breakdown of what each option would entail. In my personal opinion and not faulting anyone, but it all felt extremely rushed to get over the line. It's done now and i don't think anything i've said there merits being harangued? You have seen the same articles I have surely with some reporting to have felt forced to move and are worried for the future. Some not having the money to compete in conferences? I didn't make that up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might we see the future of the SJFA West resemble essentially a reserve league to the clubs competing in the WOSL with dual membership? Could that then double as a fall back option if the WOSL doesn't work out for some smaller clubs say? I don't know but perfectly legitimate questions in such circumstances surely?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't make that up. Wishaw - after an article with the Daily Record suggested they weren't happy by the need to move - On 01/04/2020 at 18:55, Wishaw Secretary said: One really shouldn't accept everything set out in newspapers (incl the online versions) as read, never mind drawing conclusions based on that. The conversation with the journalist lasted 50 mins. It is his choice what he includes, what he leaves out and the context, order and emphasis used. For the avoidance of any doubt whatsoever, Wishaw Juniors will be submitting an application for membership of the West of Scotland League as proposed by The Lowland League.. Membership of the S.J.F.A. & W. of S. J.F.A. and previous Junior F.A. 's such as the old Scottish, Lanarkshire and Central Leagues has, down the years, provided stable environments for clubs like ourselves to operate and serve our communities, particularly in recent years throughout periods of significant social and economic change. We look forward to the West of Scotland League serving that same function and to meeting old friends, making new ones and to facing new challenges. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering that the "smaller clubs" are going to be playing in virtually the same league set up against mainly the same teams as they have played in recent years in what way may the WOSFL not work out for them? For many clubs in the West the only difference is that they are now part of a unified pyramid set up in which if they are ever good enough to do so they can rise through the divisions as far as they can. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What circumstances would lead to teams wanting to return to the West Region Juniors from an extremely similar set up in the WOSFL? Was Glensmad being sensitive when he pointed out that there will be no West Region JFA next season? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But all I've read from you on any topic is negativity towards the new reality, or questions about it framed in a negative manner. Just saying what I see. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wile E Coyote Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Every time I have seen Chris Strain interviewed he says Talbot may well have won all those games in hands he never mentions that Talbot only needed to win 4 of their 9 games in hand to go top' Here is a comparison I have never seen mentioned Talbot have played 16 games and have 41 points After Kilwinning had played 16 games they had 39 points (and their form nose dived since then) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't make that up. They are entering non-league football, not leaving. The biggest implication for the Buffs is that all their hard work upgrading their ground will eventually pay off when they get licensed, something that couldn't happen in the Juniors. On one side you have Scottish Cup entry, SFA money, playing in the WOSFL against the same teams, progression up to the LL etc. What would the comparison breakdown be on the Juniors side? 18 hours ago, Killiepiyo said: Missed that one, first one comes to mind is Royal Albert's but perhaps that one is all spin as well?

Andy groundhopper Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Have faith in the Pyramid system,all clubs will have better grounds and facilities in good time, that's what all fans want,isn't it ? To stay as the juniors meant no progression, ambition. When the divisions are sorted and promotions start happening,surely that's exciting ? rather than stagnating in a cosy world. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
