    I've not see it but hhas any club who say they are withdrawing for this season stated that they are releasing players

    Each player who signs for these clubs are either on an amateur form for the  20/21 season or a professional form for the 20/21 season.
    The clubs do not have to release those players unless they cannot keep up with the players contracted payments. 

     I'm sure the clubs who withdraw are allowed to play friendlies and are they allowed to participate in the other cup, ie. SCC.

     

    The only way the clubs would release a player was that they felt it would harm their name in some way if they keep the players signed

    Provided clubs haven’t given these players a signing on fee or paid for them, in my opinion I would be absolutely shocked if the clubs don’t release them!

    What if some clubs want to play and can afford to run with no fans highly highly doubtful but hypothetically could they run a mini type league and will clubs be punished in anyway if league is aloud to start when proposed but clubs can’t due to no fans and no income 

    Good point. I would imagine there is still a high % of players who would play for free to get the game going!

    The games a bogey.

    See you all next season.

    Seems to be a general theme of desperation to “call the season”. 
     

    The world has changed, and for anything to run safety and effectively it has to change too. 
     

    It requires someone with a bit of nouse to move this forward.

    I for one are desperate to get the game back, yes there is going to be changes. Yes it’s not going to be “the way it was” and yes some things are going to be more difficult but surely in the hierarchy of the league someone can get it going again!

    Regardless if a team is caught cheating and putting people at risk then I dont really care who they are or what they spend.

    Well I am pretty sure alot of people are speaking out because it is Darvel, had it been another less profile team would there be so much fuss...... No chance!!

  5. My view point......

    If Darvel hadnt been so in your face in social media and on here would they have been 'grassed up' - No, I dont think so.

    Also,

    If fans from other clubs werent so jealous of Darvel and the money they have been spending would they of got such a hard time for it- No, I dont think so.

     

    Right, am away to get off my fence now.....

    The issue is making sure that only 4-500 turn up. What happens if fans of clubs playing behind closed doors turn up looking for their football fix.

    I want to get back and see Arthurlie as soon as possible but no way should we be doing it until the r number and death rates are much lower than the are. We are still working through travel restriction issues and there are many other similar issues that need to be resolved before we can have any size of gathering more than 8 people.

     

    Which in my opinion would 100% happen. There is evidence there that some clubs attendances fluctuate depending where Celtic/Rangers are that day.

    I wonder what the capacity in most juniors grounds would be with social distancing in place? Obviously some are different based on the structure of the ground, Arthurlie, Cumbernauld, etc but generally speaking if 3/4 sides are available I think you would be ok and have capacity for 600/700... would that then open the doors for all ticket? First come first serve?

    I don't know it, and nobody will ever know it for sure.

    If you look at the league table, we were 15th, and 13th would have seen us safe.

    We had 3 games in hand over Benburb in 14th place, 7 points behind them, and still to play them twice. It's extremely possible that we could have overtaken them.

    We had 7 games in hand over Troon in 13th place, 10 points behind them, and still to play them at home. I'm certain we would have overtaken them.

    We had 9 home games left to play and only 4 away from home. Our form had also picked up dramatically since the turn of the year, losing only one game, and that was to a last minute goal away to Auchinleck Talbot after leading for more than half of the game. Our last three results were a 2-2 draw away to league leaders Kilwinning Rangers (with one of Kilwinning's goals being a freak own goal), a thoroughly deserved win over Clydebank, and that frustrating defeat away to Auchinleck Talbot.

    I and everyone else at the club were very confident of avoiding the bottom three when the games were stopped.

    Yes, you can say we dodged a bullet based on the stats up to the end of 2019, but so did Rob Roy, Benburb and Troon. When you still had 43% of your season still to play, and your form was good, you're naturally optimistic of survival.

    But we'll never know for sure.

    Referencing a “freak own goal” is clutching at straws. Am sure every team can reflect on injuries, suspensions, own goals and missed chances etc.
     

    Glencairn had the second lowest PPG and therefore I would of expected that trend to follow and them to finish second bottom. 

     

    I am sure Troon and Benburb would of been looking down the table and thinking there is a potential 9 points when they played Glencairn too? 
     

    Anyway, not having a dig just stating a fact, I admire how you defend your club with so much detail.

    Jamie Wilson is far from past his best and yeah Sheridan probably is but he will be fine for the conferences and big shay is a quality goalie and will be one of the best if not the best goalie in the conferences

    I personally think all 3 will be VERY comfortable in the conference.  Experience is a big thing and expect them to be very hard to beat already next season with just these 3 signings.

    Two points in reply.

     

    1. It hasn't yet been decided how many promotion places will be on offer from the conferences next season. (Although I agree it is likely to be one.) So that is still 3 promotion places next season.

     

    2. Had the Premier teams been in the conferences, they would likely have hoovered up most of the 3 or 4 places on offer for the top league. So the way I see it, more clubs further down the leagues will now have genuine hopes of a promotion challenge next season. And, if they don't quite make it, they'll be in a tier 7 league the following season with (likely) 3 promotion places on offer.

     

     

     

    Have to agree with that point. If anything it gives clubs such as Renfrew, St Rochs, Arthurlie, Kilsyth, etc a real chance for something to play for, on the other structure I personally dont think they would finish above Talbot, Glenafton, Pollok etc over the course of a season. 

     

    I would like to see 3 going straight up and then a play off between the runners up and 15th, 16th, 17th placed teams of the top league. 

     

    Ie,

    Straight up -

    Arthurlie (Winners of A)

    Renfrew (Winners of B)

    St Cadocs (Winner of C)

     

    2 leg play off

    Rob roy v St Rochs(runner up)

    Troon v Kilsyth (runner up)

    Glencairn v Gartcairn (runner up)

    Why can we not have a grown up discussion about the SoS and its place in the pyramid?

    100% Agree, can there be a thread created for bitching?

    As I dont have a particular preference on what team goes in what league if the league standing were good enough to awards leagues on then I think they should be good enough to reshape the new league,

    Rob Roy, Troon and Glencairn down and Darvel, Blantrye and Cumbernauld up?
