Only folk that do it are people that want to progress as it's not worth your while any other way in terms of a hassle to cash ratio. Talking about admin officials I think. SFA say they cannot do the discipline admin for all leagues, only 1 tier 6 league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Although there's lots of seethe in this thread about two clubs, the SFA are being fully consistent with what they said last year that the east region would have to do to be accepted by them at tier six (i.e. no north and south divisions only a 16 club division at tier 6). Good to see the common sense outcome of the clubs from the west superleague becoming the tier six feeder is the one that is happening but there should be pro/rel using ppg outcomes from this season to determine who gets in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonnyrigg were promoted from a tier 6 conference to tier 5 last season, so there's nothing consistent about any of this. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(all split into conferences)When one is clearly higher level from the start it is easier to defend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutankhamen Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 On 26 April 2020 at 13:00, Stego Mac said: From a neutral point of view, it is always going to be interesting to see how the Conferences are made up, and I have no idea how the discussions have been on these. So for a bit of fun, I decided to come up with my own version. I split each of the teams into a pool of 4 based on league positions last year with the exception of Johnstone Burgh and Newmains who moved up a pot based on their points per games. The 4 new clubs were also put in the same pot. Each of the pots would then in turn be drawn into each of the conferences in turn. Below I have listed ‘my’ pots followed by the initial draw I made for a bit of fun. I don’t think I could have hand picked some of the derbies better myself without the random generator though. WOS League ‘pots’ Pot 1 Kilwinning Rangers Pollok Auchinleck Talbot Irvine Meadow Pot 2 Clydebank Glenafton Athletic Beith Kilbirnie Pot 3 Cumnock Rossvale Largs Thistle Hurlford Pot 4 Troon Benburb Rutherglen Glencairn Kirkintilloch Rob Roy Pot 5 Darvel Cumbernauld Blantyre Renfrew Pot 6 Shotts Arthurlie Neilston Whitletts Pot 7 Kilsyth Rangers Dalry Thistle Gartcairn Petershill Pot 8 St Rochs Cambuslang Craigmark Irvine Victoria Pot 9 Ardrossan Lanark Shettleston Port Glasgow Pot 10 Lesmahagow Greenock Carluke Glasgow Perthshire Pot 11 Larkhall Thistle Bellshill Athletic Girvan Maryhill Pot 12 Kello Rovers Wishaw East Kilbride Thistle Royal Albert Pot 13 Vale of Leven Yoker Athletic Muirkirk Johnstone Burgh Pot 14 Maybole Ashfield Thorniewood United Forth Wanderers Pot 15 Annbank Vale of Clyde St Anthony’s Newmains United Pot 16 Saltcoats Victoria Lugar Boswell Thistle Ardeer Thistle Pot 17 Bonnyton Thistle Drumchapel United Glasgow University St Cadocs Only pot you'll see is the one thrown at Darvel and Blantyre Vics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWeatherFan Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 As pointed out previously the WoSFL can still go the Conference route. They're going to have to administer the discipline etc for 50 clubs by the sound of it next year anyway, since the SFA are forgoing any responsibility. Conferences provide more flexibility given the ongoing uncertainty around when the 2020-21 will have a chance to start. Otherwise you're definitely tying in teams to a 32 game/34 rounds league season on paper. The only thing that would be missed is participation in the Lowland League playoff which isn't guaranteed anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but from we've been told they said that sort of format wasn't going to be allowed again in future and tier 6 feeders would have to be 16 club divisions and they could handle the discipline for four of them.

Exactly they are a small club from ayrshire with a glasgow based manager and squad throwing money pretending to be a big club. Clubs like Pollok and Talbot never have and never will give a flying 'f' about them. Edited April 28, 2020 by thebairns57 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
