Was a major 1st step in getting things moving, but I did half-expect the rule to be quietly dropped at the time. Can't have all these wee junior teams ripping it up in the big Scottish Sunnybank were the first juniors to win away from home against an SPFL club. Albion Rovers in 2010/11 - remarkable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnieman Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Are there any signs of clubs going for a licence? you'd think Culter would be looking at it given the taste of Scottish Cup football they have had in the past. Dyce seem a well run club with decent facilities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Shaker Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Dyce clearly have plans for something. Other sides are rumoured to be fighting over playing rights at Hillhead and ASV, but so far no one’s fully committed to progressing to a licence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 All licensing has been put on hold while SFA HQ work on another dastardly scheme to screw up the pyramid. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spyro Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 If any of the new rules stop places like Aberdeen Sports Village becoming licensed ground then they'll do us all a favour tbh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 (edited) Champions Culter are happy staying in the Juniors. Quote No rush to move up the pyramid Despite their dominance this season, Culter are in no rush to follow Banks o’ Dee into the Highland League. Thomson said: “Financially we are not ready for it. “It would be a big step up. It took Banks o’ Dee six or seven years to get ready. “It would cost the club a minimum of £120,000 to get an SFA club licence which you require and that would involve things such as installing floodlights, upgrading dressing rooms and improving disabled facilities. “Then it would be a question of whether the players and the committee are up for it with the travelling costs. “It would be a huge step up so for the time-being we will enjoy ourselves in the juniors. “There are one or two clubs who are looking at moving up to the Highland League. “I think our friends at Dyce are the closest to it. They have been building up their club. They have put in floodlights and they are away to put in a stand. “To get up you need to win the league first and that is the hardest part. “If we get more success we might have the hunger to do it but that would be more of a longer term plan.” https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/sport/football/scottish/5764099/culter-fc-president-memorable-campaign/ Edited May 28, 2023 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banchory only 9. Screw up. Same in the full table but you can add up the wins and draws to show their mistake. https://www.scottishjuniorfa.com/north-region/mcbookie-league-tables/ P.S. Unless it's something to do with point deductions for fielding ineligible players? P.P.S. Looks like it is.
