There's usually SFA Board rep(s) at these AGMs. I wouldn't read anything into it.

Ian Maxwell was not at the agm.he came in after the agm was over for the general meeting. In 30 years eos and now Ll. sfa board members have only attended the agm if invited by the league can only remember that happening twice.

The LL board are absolute rats, accept the loss, apologise to everyone for misleading and resign. Don’t put forward a revote on accepting a really shit idea because not doing so might stop your really shit plan.

In fairness it is not a revote, the last vote was an indicative one, I’m led to believe this vote was always scheduled.

With Scotland going out the World Cup. we need to invest/Increase in Youth/B team football for the future development and its paramount we have SPL sides having B teams in the Structure this will enable better development ahead of a loan/Reserve system which people from the dark ages want in place to protect there silly petty interests.

GTF. 

If the uglies genuinely gave a crap about Scottish football, they wouldn’t fill half their team or more with imports, they would blood more Scots kids in the first team, so don’t give me all that ‘for the good of Scottish football’ crap.

Welcome to the Lowland League, where half the threads are the same 5 people having the same argument about the Dutch and Crotian youth set-ups for eternity

European countries with a population (roughly) within 25% of our own: Denmark, Finland, Slovakia, Norway, Ireland, Croatia, Georgia and Bosnie & Herzegovina.

Our last WC appearance was in 1998. In that time Finland, Norway and Georgia have all failed to qualify as well. The Finnish, Norwegian and Georgian leagues all have B teams in the league system. So having B teams does not work for them.

Denmark's best WC performance in that time was the last 16 which they have managed twice. They also don't have B teams so we can't put down their successes to B teams.

Slovakia also made the the last 16 in 2010. They do have B teams! The success you've been clinging onto... not really. Not a single member of their 2010 squad played B team football in Slovakia. 

Ireland also made the last 16 back in 2002. Again... the League of Ireland doesn't have B teams. 

Bosnia made the 2014 group stage and have very limited B team involvement at the lowest part of their pyramid. Once again. No-one in that squad came through Bosnian B teams. 

Croatia, tho', are an anomoly aint they? Tiny country but made the final in 2018 (they never made it past the group stages since 1998 and even failed to qualify one year so that final could be argued as an outlier) but I digress. Clearly the most successful nation who Scotland can compare themselves to in population. They do have B teams so that must be the link as well? No. None of their silver medal winning squad played regular football for B teams in Croatia either.

Aint it weird? Almost as tho' B teams have no relevance to these countries success at international football.

Yes. Cheer-up!

Maybe they could bring in Darvel as Team 20 instead of having the 19 including the 3 reserve/B teams.

At least that would be something positive.

At least I am consistent. No B teams and have a 16 team League.

C’mon The Rose 🌹🌹🌹

If they accept hearts aswell then it will be hibs next year and aberdeen after that and an emerging promising pyramid system will be diluted to a glorified reserve  league. 

Apparently, as part of the agreed review, there will be a rule put in place barring B teams from the end of next season.

Take that with a pinch of salt as reserve sides weren’t meant to be there in the first place.

Countries that have let B teams in have actually got worse.(Netherlands)?

imagine Rangers and Celtic b teams ruining the the championship and other b sides ruining all the other divisions?

Time to find a new sport.
