    IF a WoSFL was formed anybody any thoughts on what league  Girvan would play?

    They used to be in the SoSFL, awright a few years ago now, but would surely fancy themselves in that league where if play offs potentially could be achieved season after season with an easier accessed route to the LL? 

    Likewise Gretna and Dalbeattie should they ever get relegated from the LL  they would find it much easier to get back to the LL than most East/Central/West clubs? 

    It's not just Fife and Tayside that might/might not see the benefits of a pyramid geography wise? 

    As much as there are pros and cons somebody somewhere has a difficult job on their hands getting the right balance. 

    We do know that the Junior forum has some highly motivated pyramidteers, so this shouldn't be a problem.

    Not commented on this thread as frankly it was going nowhere & starting to bore me but the news of the last day or so has gave it a shot in the arm .
    Has anyone seen who voted for what yet ? Makes very interesting reading so it does . Looking at it Talbot , Cumnock & Glens could join their own wee breakaway league & just play each other for all & eternal . I’m sure they would get the 2 Irvine sides wishing to join them as well .

    We did it in the 1930's when the north clubs in the Western League wouldn't let us join.

  3. We played Balbeggie a while back in the scottish...drove past the park a few times b4 we found it cos it wiz just like a farmers field roped off then my dad had 2 chase the sheep off the park b4 kick off only a boy then but remember it well it wiz like the back of beyond

    The dugouts were made out off fence panels and there was an orchard next to it. If I remember it was foggy, damp and as you say in the middle of nowhere. Halbeath was next to Dunfermline's ground and the boundary fence was made out of old doors. It was pissing with rain and the Talbot fans were sliding down the grassy terrace every time they put a foot in the wrong place.
