A and the SOS at Tier7?

Can I ask, how many in the EOS premier - 15 or 16? I know the top 5 of each conference went up but with allegedly no relegation/promotion is there going to be a 16th added?

Am I being silly here but there SHOULD be more teams in the lower levels of the pyramid, the further down you go, the more there should be,. Is that not the case?

From other threads I note that Banks of Dee dont want to take the spot and the HL seem to be happy to stay at 17. It doesnt help to make the Pyramid system function well when Leagues dont want to play their part.

And we know who they are

Surely WW would not be accepted by application as they still dont satisfy the most recent licensing rules e.g no floodlights, or am I getting confused by it all?

Sorry above I pinched from another forum, but it seems to make sense with only three top leagues and the rest split into three regional LLs

I certainly wouldnt disagree that this looks great and I wish they would consider it seriously. I just dont think there is the will power at the top to drive such a revision through and little interest in some of the lower ranks in football. Why dont you get a job at the SFA and push it through

Sounds good but at tier 5 I doubt the regionalisation would take place. Due to much including SFA blundering and self interest at tier 6 it is struggling to get off the ground.

What nonesense. Apart from the distance, the fact that the HL are not taken any more clubs, Berwick dont have to make that choice as yet.

Lol poor old Rod, I dont think he actually knows what the HL/LL line actually is. Also there may not be a LL place to fill if Berwick Rangers are relegated and Bonnyrigg are denied promotion.

Ha ha, Not again!.

I can assure that as a season ticket holder at PNE and attending many functions there he is not loved here due to his in activity and disregard for the club.

As a Preston N E fan I can say that he was good there ONLY because he took on a team left by someone else. He could not/did not bring players or the team on. It was only on the word of Alex Ferguson that he got the MAN U job. He did nothing at Everton except keep them where they were. So imo he has not energy to motivate or develop teams so I couldnt see him do a Scotland job.

will that herald a last minute application excercise by junior clubs in the east at this last minute?

If a team in the West gets relegated from the Lowland then they would go into the top league of the West juniors. All the leagues are supposed to be in the pyramid after all. Its not been confirmed if the Juniors have sorted any access to the pyramid as yet unless you have some proof. So relegation from the LL at the moment would be to the EOS or the SOS end off.

Thats what I thought

What are their facilities like?

I didnt think that they would be promoted if they werent licensed so those who have the ambition have the ability to move up through the LL, others will not be promoted. Not sure what your issue is.

Robert, there's two Glenrothes teams that have applied, Juniors and Stollers. wouldnt they best amalgamating?

I dont know why you just dont ignore him Burnie_man, he would have no ammunition then to keep spouting this garbage and annoying the hell out of the rest of us

Ive never heard that and dont know what it means

I thought that Bonnyton Thistle was already in the SOS and therefore already at Tier 6

No I dont see that. Currently its the EOS and SOS that are at Tier 6. If the West juniors came in then only the West Premier league would be at Tier 6 and the champs have to compete against the champs of EOS and SOS to enter tier 5. The rest of the West Juniors would slot in at tiers 7, 8 etc. The whole four divisions would not come in at Tier 6. So Bonnyton will still be at tier 6 next season irrespective of what the West Juniors do.
