Hopefully his computer can come up with more than half a season of fixtures. If it's too much for him then help should be provided. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginaro Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Listened to the Down the Divisions podcast, interesting to hear there was a proposal for regional conferences by Ardrossan - surprised it hasn't been mentioned on here. But good to hear Kennie correctly make the case for remaining with the conferences, so as to get back to linear leagues ASAP. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But good to hear Kennie correctly make the case for remaining with the conferences, so as to get back to linear leagues ASAP. I’ve never understood the regional argument for conferences. Players don’t come from one town or area anymore so the i don’t see the sense in it. You want to play against the best and challenge yourself. If you play the same teams week in week out it breeds apathy and does nothing to further the game imo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutankhamen Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 A restart date but no guarantees of crowds being allowed in. No crowds no point. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldandround Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Yes but, Its highly likely there will be. Current expectations is that all areas will move to level 2 on 17th may. co-incidentally the 1st day contact training and matches are allowed. Level 2 = 17th may level 1 = 7th june level 0 = 28th june Not many semi pro teams that cant have full crowds with level 0 capacities! Be positive. Less doom and gloom please 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much exactly the same position as the Scottish govs more cautious approach. Not interested in getting bogged down in politics, we are where we are. And the Scottish governments guidelines expect to have crowds in grounds from the same days as we can train. THus, lets look forward, not back and hope for a positive future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a big ask for some folk to suck it up, be patient and not act like weans but that's probably the best way to deal with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marten Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Nobody can give guarantees when crowds are allowed and anyone who claims they can, be it a football official or politician, is lying, simple as that. That's because this pandemic can still take unexpected turns that aren't foreseen now. However, vaccinations are going well and the effects start showing. So far all signs are that there can easily be fans in July based on the timetable & the level 1/0 rules. It's far more likely than not that there will be fans at the restart and only a very unexpected turn of events (like a new vaccine-resistant variant) can ruin that. Even though the latter can't be entirely ruled out, it's still unlikely. It's only right to plan for the restart as they are doing. Obviously it makes sense to think of a "worst case scenario". But the is at least ground for optimism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ilford Drummer Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Definitely excited about a July restart but at the same time apprehensive about the horrible thought of games without fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
