Beith juniors 

Troon juniors 

Congratulations to both clubs in the decision proper football clubs with a backbone and value what and who they are. 

Looking forward to seeing many more added to the numbers in future weeks. 

Junior football is dying on its arse.

Good riddance to it too.

I imagine it will be regularly reviewed and if need be recommendations made. No different to how its evolved over the years.

Of the £5K semi final guarantee, the SJFA might only be paying £1500 as the rest actually comes from the gate money over the two games. If there was a decent enough crowd they wouldn't be paying any money.

Same with the final.

Delighted for supporters and Iargs committee men that came to the right decision in keeping junior membership. Only right that its kept and junior football will remain being played. 

Heres to many many more added to the list. 

But they’re not a Junior club?

They are not a Junior club, they are senior cuckoos doing nothing but taking money from the pockets of real Junior clubs in the East and North.

Bizarre its being allowed and even more bizarre that a poster is so happy to see the "grade" being taken for a ride by clubs who couldnt get out of it quick enough just a couple of months ago.

Why are you lads determined to expunge the term Junior Football from everything possible? If a club is a member of the Scottish Junior Football Association and elect to play in the Scottish Junior Cup then they have Junior status.

Yes, they will ply their trade in the senior pyramid and as such as Senior clubs. We all know that but you can't deny some semblence of Junior exists. You're making yourselves look really petty

Junior football is being equated in some circles with nasty No voting, Rangers supporting and flute playing proles that can't afford bus fares to Ibrox, so some people have lost all sense of reason on these issues.

As previously stated, which you appear to have missed again and again, I want to have the Junior cup for actual real Junior clubs and not for Senior clubs who couldnt wait to leave the "grade".

All those months you were defending the "grade" and now you are happy for your club to screw that same "grade" and the clubs within it.

My club, like many others in the West, were left with no choice but to go. You know that though.

I think that you're missing the point.
If the Junior Cup was left with just North and East competing it would have faded into insignificance. Keeping the West involved keeps it as the biggest cup in lower league football.
