db11 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Just now, John S said: BUs voted against proposal My gut feeling was teams with a reasonable support would. That’s why I was concerned it would be voted through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEd Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 The biggest challenge the three feeder leagues now face is the possibility of LL2, which was mentioned briefly in the Official Catch-up Podcast. Whilst I can see some sense in it, the cynic in me suggests it's a way of delaying the inevitable decline in the fortunes of some clubs as the bigger ex-juniors start to progress. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballfirst Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I would like to see Bonnyrigg, CSS, and the other three clubs who voted against the proposal resign from the LL in protest and seek admission to the EOS/WOS/SOS for next season. A vote of no confidence in George Fraser should be a given at the AGM. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Returning to a closed shop with no possible relegation from league 2? If they can get the SFA to agree I guess not. Hope they don't though. Maybe it will only be for one year and they finish 11th and 12th, above shitehawks like Berwick and a few other supporters of the plan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about that and exerting control over non-league football rather than working with the tier 6 leagues. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sending a message still you are entitled to disagree, this is what these forums are for. The majority? You mean some - attendances at Challenge Cup games were already lower than those for league games - no evidence that a majority of those who would have attended don’t purely because of Colts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 A Lowland League 2 is fine as long as it is qualified for on merit, doesn't have onerous licensing requirements and has buy-in/involvement from the three leagues below.If it has an East/West split it's also the quickest way of solving the issue of the SoS being at least one, possibly two tiers too high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor7 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Kelty just announced they abstained from voting. Will put a statement out tomorrow. This is a shocking decision from clubs who voted for this. All clubs have been shafted due to greed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Fraser has been nothing but outsranding for the LL He's just caused a massive amount of negative attention for the LL now. The league looks like a bit of a joke when it's willing to let the Old Firm colts buy a place in the league when there's only promotion spot on offer to tier 6. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parsforlife Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) I genuinely don’t know how to express my anger at the LL. Utterly despicable c***s. How the f**k do you support this? You deserve no place in tier 5, no place in the pyramid and frankly no place to exist as a football club. Are seriously selling yourself to players and supporters that playing a bunch of kids is a good way to spend their Saturday? Funk off you rat c***s, if that’s the existence you want them do it away fro the rest of us. Play your little kick about outside the pyramid where serious football is happening.
