As long as the buildings/dressing rooms/lounge aren't a fire trap i doubt the council really cares.

Whitletts will be moving, and are currently working to bring the old pavilion at New Voluntary Park up to scratch. The ground already has floodlights in place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't underestimate the amount of paperwork, courses and qualifications required. The stadium stuff really is only a fraction of the work, the personnel commitment is considerable. I'm sure you have all that in hand though, the club wouldn't have made the commitment to apply and pay the fee without knowing what they were taking on. I wish you well and hope to see a successful outcome at the AGM next summer. Thanks ,we have been working on getting the paperwork up to scratch for a while now & we had a lot of it in place already with the quality mark award , the stadium only needs a few things , defibrillator (already organised) ,new signage,a covered area for two wheelchairs & helpers & the most expensive part new goals as we need socketed goals instead of the current ones with wheels ,we will start a gofundme page next week to try help with some of the costs & I know it's going to be a hard slog but we will get there & it will eventually help improve the team on the park too . Good newss about the wheelchair spaces 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert James Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 As far as I am aware, Beith are nowhere near obtaining an SFA licence, which is a pity, as they are arguably favourites to be crowned WoSL champions. Darvel's consistency has slipped, and Talbot have too many fixtures to fulfill. As potential champions, Beith are not licensed, so they cannot enter the Lowland promotion play-offs at the end of this season. Top 6 :- BEITH 21 -48 DARVEL 20 - 41 POLLOK 22 - 38 MEADOW 20 - 32 TALBOT 14 - 30 CLYDEBANK 17 - 30 Disappointing for the WoSL, if it is not represented in the Pyramid play-off, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the leaked latest SFA proposals get passed then the pathway is in turmoil yet again regardless of licenses. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginaro Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Don't think it's that disappointing if Beith are unlicensed champions - they'll join the rest of the top WOS teams in the Scottish Cup next season and the league still has all the same teams/rivalries; meanwhile Linlithgow will get promoted which improves the LL and they get to play Bo'ness for their derbies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the contrary, SLLC are engaged with myself in regards to ground improvements at my club and the discussions are largely positive and progress has begun. In the South Lanarkshire View (online council paper) has reported a £14 million Transformation fund to modernise ageing sports facilities in the area this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just means that the clubs that are serious about it like Pollok, Clydebank, Kilwinning and Darvel haven’t been good enough. If Beith win it then fair play. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
