What I will say is that the incoming president has lost his first meaningful vote on his first first day in charge, not a great look. If he's any sense he'll say he's heard the message loud and clear and he'll be working for all the members, new broom style. Probably through gritted teeth mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 2 hours ago, Dundee Hibernian said: Bad news and a potential embarrassment for Dundee United fans is that Mark Ogren, while stating he'll give consideration to the views of the support, intends to make a decision by himself on how to vote. Considering how well that his choices have gone this season, I'm preparing to hide. I'll be pleasantly surprised if United are a no. Nothing we have done in the past 3 years has given me any reason to be optimistic that the owners have any understanding of Scottish football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strathman Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Wonder if they will pull the vote now knowing it will fail. I think fan power has done the trick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballfirst Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 17 minutes ago, PastyMan said: Is there much of a precedent for a SFA Board backed resolution which they argued as fundamental to the structure of the domestic game and the future of the International game being rejected by the membership due to its ineptness in form, structure and presentation? The last one was probably in 2012 with their attempt to get Sevco a place in the SPL, then Division 1, before they were forced by a fans revolt to admit them to Division 3 (bottom of the "pyramid" as it was then). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 The SFA board tried to eliminate non-licenced clubs from the Scottish Cup around 2015 or so. That got voted down by the membership. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dev Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 1 hour ago, CambieBud said: Livingston now a confirmed No. St Mirren and Motherwell also. Thankfully fan pressure has swayed this towards the good guys. When it is rejected Maxwell’s position must be untenable surely Motherwell? Not seen this on web-site, facebook or twitter yet unless missed. Ayr United's consultation ends at 5pm so there may be something from them before the vote. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballfirst Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Annan says no. CLUB STATEMENT-CONFERENCE LEAGUE PROPOSAL The board of Annan Athletic FC have considered the conference league proposal put forward by the SFA and as a club have decided to vote against the proposed creation of a new tier. As a club Annan Athletic FC has always strived to improve and develop and another chapter in our fine history was written when we were promoted to cinch League One this season. The club is fully open to listen to ideas that develop the Scottish game further and feel more work needs to be done within the pyramid system to support clubs who like ourselves strive to continually improve and play at the highest level possible. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 No statement but I’ve got an email from our SLO that we are against the proposal. Our fan survey came back 92% No. Maxwell is so far out of touch with fans 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyramid Watcher Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 (edited) Just been sent this by a committee member at a club - Good Afternoon Scottish FA Annual General Meeting: 6 June 2023 Withdrawal of Resolution 7 I refer to Resolution 7 in the Notice of the Scottish FA's 2023 Annual General Meeting, sent to members on 12 May 2023. Resolution 7 seeks approval (in accordance with Scottish FA Article 18.1) for the formation of The Scottish Conference League as a recognised football body. The Scottish FA Board has received a variety of feedback in respect of Resolution 7 and has concluded that it would like to carry out further consultation in respect of the player pathway to ensure the best development opportunities for Scottish players within the football pyramid. The Scottish FA Board has therefore resolved to withdraw Resolution 7 from the business to be transacted at the Annual General Meeting on 6 June 2023. The withdrawal of Resolution 7 does not otherwise affect the validity of the Notice of the Annual General Meeting, the Proxy Form or any proxy votes already submitted on other proposed Resolutions. The numbering of all other proposed Resolutions at the Annual General Meeting will remain unchanged. Kind regards Gary Booth Chief Governance Officer Scottish Football Association Edited June 5, 2023 by Pyramid Watcher 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
