If they can get licensing approval like Bo'ness did last season, there is a promotion place to the LL potentially on the line this season. There's also likely to be scope for promotion for conference level teams as well for the teams that do proceed. It's highly unlikely that the new cases curve won't have passed through a peak and started to decline significantly well before the end of the season, so getting fans back is not mission impossible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The indications are with reduced numbers in the leagues there will be no promotion or relgation and clubs withdrawing will do so without penalty, hence the term' meaningless games ' Wonder if all the teams firing ahead actually consulted with their supporters? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theesel1994 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 So what happens if 11 clubs withdraw from the Premiership and 7, 6 & 9 clubs withdraw from Conference A, B & C ? Do they still go ahead? Do they re-jig the Conferences. If there is no penalty for withdrawing, no promotion or relegation and no indication of fans being allowed in at any point......what motivation is there for a club to start the season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps those who want to start with the current restrictions can enlighten us? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glass ceiling Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Is the implication of this statement thst "Tier 6" should be treated differently than clubs within the Conference structure? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Just now, Glass ceiling said: Is the implication of this statement thst "Tier 6" should be treated differently than clubs within the Conference structure? Doubt it. By extension once one division of WoS is OK to go the rest should be too as the same argument applies on what is "professional". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glass ceiling Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Thanks However my understanding is that because we are governed by the non professionsl Board we will not be considered professional And if there is not 100% unity on what is being asked for then it is highly unlikely that any dispensation will be afforded 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SJFA was on non-professional board, as was EoS and SoS before the WoSL was created. Been that way for a few years now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
