fan of the juniors

Watched Glencairn v ourselves when we were at our lowest ebb & tbh a wasn’t impressed . Still it could have been an off day for them .

Think you’ll find Jimmy is a Beith fan lol . Good try though

Just realised am in Aviemore that weekend so won’t be there . Hopefully a bus will be organised in my absence

So where’s the nearest pub to yer park?

You sure ? Not according to the questionnaire that I’ve seen But if you can show that they have I will take your word for it

Bang on . Nothing would change for the vast majority of the clubs .

It’s a strange one though . Know it’s not set in stone but if clubs are against it from the get go then a few fans ain’t gonna change their minds

You were to pick a pyramid yes or pyramid no option then an option a or option b choice & lastly entry level . Questionnaire or voting sheet the clubs still had to pick options

Also the 4 clubs that never voted are Dunbar Jeanfield Lochore and Saltcoats Surely for something as big as this these clubs should be brought to task over not voting ?

They did

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 .

Surely if there is no automatic promotion or relegation then it is a closed shop? Can remember when Banks o Dee were knocked back & understood their ire at the time . The general consensus was that they were a threat to the bigger HL sides at the time so the weaker sides were voted in . Whether that’s factually accurate is here or there depends on your opinion . But BoD have had a few good results against HL sides whenever playing them

Done a poll on Our Facebook page to gauge the level of support for or against moving into the pyramid system . Most comments were pro leaving but only if we all left en masse . Here’s the result

On a personal level yes

That’s the million dollar question . TJ won’t as it would render him out of his cushy number & as I’ve stated there isn’t a queue of West clubs waiting to leave . The sfa are just as useless as their junior counterparts when it comes to improving the game in this country so a don’t hold out any hope for a quick fix tbh

Bankies fans will vote for this as they in the long term want back into the seniors . Wouldn’t fancy the trips that they would have to do the 1st season anyways & that’s if they get promoted at the 1st attempt . If they don’t then will they fancy they trips every other week ?

I would say when a viable West league gets put in place Would hope if that did come into fruition our club would be at the forefront of it all

Thus far this only seems to be an East region issue & only due to the close proximity of the eos league to most sides in the region Really can’t see any west side opting for this for a while yet due to the distances involved in joining the only viable league which is the South . Some lesser lights might jump ship as it’ll be the only way the will get further themselves as they certainly won’t on the park Our Bankie friends might once the ground situation is sorted but there is no way your Polloks, Talbots , Ladeside’s of this world will join the current set up . And tbh why would they want to at this time ? A viable West league on the same level as the East & South would probably be viable but until that is on the table it’s a no goer I’m afraid

Half the clubs mentioned I would argue are the pure definition of queue jumpers . They know they would never get to the top of their grade by the correct means ie promotion so let’s make a new league & jump 2 divisions or with some more than that to better ourselves . Absolute nonsense Yes I’m in favour of a pyramid but this isn’t it An absolute farce

We never commented as he wasn’t registered as a player until today Also wouldn’t comment on fees etc anyways
