The WOSFL can have a top division of 5 if they wanted, no one could do anything about it, except the SFA if it's in the rules. Darvel were part of the Junior league, they left to join the Lowland league under the WOSFL. New laws, new governance, new rules. They, as in Darvel including all member clubs are told that they will be able to pick who they want to run the league the following season and the Lowland will cover it the first season. So what legal action can be taken. It's common sense any teams who leaves Association to join a New Association will have to follow their rules, even if they don't like it. What is hard for you or anyone else to understand on that matter, its just common sense Who mentioned Darvel? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beith19 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 So has there been any decision made yet for the structure below the 'Premier' after next season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glensmad Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 So has there been any decision made yet for the structure below the 'Premier' after next season?That depends on the vote regarding how many come down from tier 6. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 you will get short odds on 20 votes for 5 down and 47 votes for 7 down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy groundhopper Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Could that be a 'pro junior' chap talking crap again, just let it go eh. Think a 20 team division with 38 games & cups would be difficult to complete in a normal winter - aiming for a 16 with a few early season evening k.o games thrown in,looks possible. Think the SFA should take most of the blame over the conference's, their ineptitude shines brightly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutankhamen Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 On 10 June 2020 at 09:06, glensmad said: It is to be discussed at the Zoom conference calls with all of the member clubs next week, and the clubs will be asked to vote by email at some point after that. You are correct, the two options are 7 down next summer or 5 down for the next two summers. For me it's a no-brainer. 5 down not only means that two teams stay in tier 6 that would otherwise be relegated, but it also means that two more teams from the conferences will make it into the tier 7 league for season 2021-22, i.e. the two 5th placed teams with the best record. The only down side to 5 down is that, at the end of season 2021-22, five teams would also need to be relegated from tier 7 to balance out the leagues again. In a 7-down scenario, the two best-record 5th placed Conferences teams (who would go into tier 7 in a 5-down scenario) would now drop to tier 8, as well as two more teams from tier 6 dropping to tier 7. With season 2020-21 likely to be shortened and potentially imbalanced, I think it's harsh to be relegating 7 teams in those circumstances. Also bear in mind that, if a team is relegated from the Lowland League to the WoSFL and nobody is promoted in the other direction, then it would need to be 8 down from tier 6. That would be 40% of the league. It only takes a team to have a dodgy start to the season and they may not recover in time, and you might see some big team names involved in that. They'd be crazy to vote to potentially put themselves in that danger, in my opinion. That's only my thoughts, though. Others will possibly see it differently. Can't say i give a f**k about the Premier shysters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy groundhopper Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Only my humble opinion but I'd go for all the WOSFL divisions to be 16 by 3 years, probably see a couple of clubs fall by the wayside or see the HL and LL increase numbers. Possibly some clubs won't meet the criteria, but I think the 30 game season is enough at lower levels. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glass ceiling Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 My view is It should be 7 down and straight to 16 Every season after 3 up 3 down The reason we have 20 team Premier was to support the Elite teams to stay in top tier after promises of conferences involving all clubs Easy solution for those who are concerned make sure you finish top 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
