mcruic Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 I'm writing a wee simulation program that will allow the simulation of any match between any Scottish club (Senior/Junior/Amateur). I'm using last seasons' points per game where available - got most of the leagues (Perthshire is missing as they seem to have deleted last year's tables, and the Glasgow Colleges website is down). Doing this just for fun - I plan to simulate an all-in Scottish Cup with every team in Scotland. No problem getting info about relative strengths of amateur leagues (Scottish Amateur and Highland Amateur Cup results) - but I'm a bit stuck concerning comparative strengths of amateur and junior/sernior football. WEST Afternoon: Caledonian/Central Scottish/Scottish/Ayrshire/Greater Glasgow Premier Morning: Glasgow Colleges, Strathclyde & District, Glasgow & District, Strathclyde Evangelical Churches Caledonian/Central seem to be the best, then maybe Scottish/Ayrshire and GGP, with the morning leagues coming under this. How do the top tiers of these leagues compare with the ex-West Juniors? Some on a par with Tier 4 of the juniors? Better? Some worse? EAST Afternoon: Lothian & Edinburgh, Kingdom of Fife, Perthshire, Stirling & District, Border, Midlands Morning: Dundee Lothian & Edinburgh/Kingdom of Fife/Stirling seem to be the best, then Midlands, Border, Perthshire and the Dundee Saturday Morning League How do these teams compare with the EoS League? On a par with the bottom tier? Better? Worse? NORTH Aberdeenshire, Inverness & District, Skye & Lochalsh, Caithness, North West Sutherland, Orkney, Shetland, Shetland Works, Lewis & Harris, Uist & Barra Aberdeenshire clearly the best here - but how does it compare with North Juniors? Is the top tier as good as the bottom tier of the juniors? What about the summer leagues (all the rest)? How do they compare with the North Caledonian League or the Highland League? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewBallsPlease Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 In my opinion the SSMAFL is ‘behind’ only Ayrshire, Caledonian and CSAFL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
