Not sure if it's a situation like Mid/Upper-Annandale situation with a tie-up with an Edinburgh based youth side. On the other hand, maybe a number of their youth players work through in Edinburgh area making it easier to manage with Friday night football? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is, I'd forgotten who it was but eventually found it in the LL thread https://twitter.com/ClubSalvesen/ Wasn't expecting Netherdale but I suppose South Queensferry does make sense as it's a west Edinburgh club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Any player who is born 2001 and still registered at any u20 team will be allowed to play an extra year next season at U20 level. Lads who are 2001 born will not be allowed to play next year unless they were still registered with a U20 team on or before February 2021 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually makes sense and a pretty fair compromise. Feel a bit sorry for those lads playing u19s though. They had no season and unlikely to find too many places in the incumbent 20s if lads are not moving on. In saying that, there will be rakes of new u20s sides needing players I suppose. Might not be an issue after all 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dev Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 I understand that the original list of 30 clubs for the 2020/21 Under 20's Development League in the East was as shown below. Some additional clubs have expressed interest in joining for 2021/22, including some clubs labelled (provis) as they have not yet been elected into the EoS. Perhaps this list can be used as a basis for next season's entries? It has been mentioned that Edinburgh City may withdraw if they get their Reserve side into the EoS. Of course, it remains to be seen which clubs enter and which don't. Blackburn United Edinburgh University Leith Athletic Bonnyrigg Rose Gala Fairydean Rovers Lothian Thistle HV Camelon Juniors Glenrothes Musselburgh Athletic Civil Service Strollers Heriot-Watt University Penicuik Athletic Dalkeith Thistle Hill of Beath Hawthorn Preston Athletic Dunipace Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts Sauchie East Fife Jeanfield Swifts Spartans FC Edinburgh City Kelty Hearts Tynecastle Edinburgh South Kennoway Star Hearts University of Stirling Edinburgh United Kirkcaldy & Dysart Whitehill Welfare Possible additions for 2021/22: Bathgate Thistle (provis) Berwick Rangers Craigroyston Fauldhouse United (provis) Livingston United (provis) Newtongrange Star Oakley United Stirling Albion 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
