Some might. Some might not.
At this point most of those managers will have been around their players long enough to have a sense what the preferences are within their squad.
And therefore unless all 17 are of the view they can convince their players to play for nothing this is a pointless exercise to present as a collective view to pressure whoever needs pressuring. I would imagine sponsors will be reticent to sponsor clubs for things like ad boards when no one might see them, programme ads etc... lots of lost income beyond that on matchday. I just don't see how it adds up.

How dare they want to get the game going again
Are they agreeing to play / manage for free? My guess is no?

From day one when reconstruction was talked about it was as clear as mud that it was a us and them situation and nothing has changed .
The SJFA was on non-professional board, as was EoS and SoS before the WoSL was created. Been that way for a few years now.

Make 20-21 a viral equilvalent of the wartime leagues - 'see you on the other side, chaps'.

Who else had them? I had a glance through the teams and Rovers were the only team who had players named as trialists.Possibiy my mistake as I am still working through the lines and I thought I saw them in more than one game last night. It must have been the Rovers line up. I was only half paying attention.

Trialists can't play in the competition.
Trialists elsewhere - must be a relaxation for this cursed season.

Aren't these restrictions planned to cover next three weekends only? Pretty sure it was 16 days from Friday.
For now. Could easily be reintroduced in months ahead.

Well that would rule out most sides in SPFL 1 and 2 playing as well.
Absolutely. It depends on what the motivation for the ban is - is it to reduce the number of workplaces mingling or to prevent it?

The SFA deem tier 5 and upwards to be professional, tier 6 and below non professional.
They may on this occasion (due to workplace mingling risks) limit it to those whose full-time job is football? That would make more sense than to say the amateurs of Edinburgh University or Civil Service Strollers are more entitled to play than the renumerated players of Linlithgow Rose.

They won't be taking view that if you play for enough for a packet of fags and a carry out every week you're 'professional'.
Game off across central belt surely for all outwith SPFL Four at very least?

They do not want a concentration of unsupervised adults anywhere if it can be avoided.

Question can be turned around why does it seem the WOS clubs seem to be more scared of starting the season than the EOS/SOS/Lowland league teams?
Starting without any promise (or likelihood) of additional funds seems reckless to me.
Fans are not returning any time soon - Jason Leitch has not even talked about the lower SPFL sides getting their crowds back, let alone us.

Don't see how, I think the three teams I named are probably reflective of the majority of clubs in EOS/SOS and Lowland league.
(pretty sure reflective isn't the word I'm looking for but it ps late and i can't be bothered changing it)
And what of the clubs that are not ran along amateur lines? Just f*ck 'em?

Better examples being Bo'ness, Linlithgow, EK and Kelty.

Here in England, the authorities have decided that "elite" clubs have to play behind closed doors, but "non-elite" clubs can let the fans in. This led to a bizarre situation locally at the weekend, where the non-elite Corinthian Casuals were at home to Dulwich Hamlet, who (bizarrely) are classed as elite. 600 crowd, but visiting supporters banned!
yet the traffic light system leaked today suggests a ban incoming on non professional sport.
