The clubs voted on it? The only team I think who could be aggrieved by this is Leith? And I've never been a fan of them since youth level and I'm glad LTHV have been given it.

Now that season is over, are contracts still in effect until June? Or can players start talking to other clubs now?

A few teams at bottom of the Premier league may have taken a sigh of relief that no relegation this season, none more so than Newtongrange.
Will they now be able to re-group and have a bigger fight whenever season 20-21 begins?
As resources may be an issue for a number of clubs with the lack of recent income, next season could be very interesting!
I believe they will still struggle next season, I hate to see teams struggle in a financial sense and I believe that Newtongrange may have that issue.

Agreed.
Let's feel sorry for Kinnoull is over. Vote stands so move on !
They are pish and would have ended up mid table by the last game anyway
Blame Carole Fucking Baskin is what I say.
LTHV have previously won the league a couple of times and been 'hard done by' and it's brilliant for them in that sense.
Being in the Premier brings with it more revenue? Possibly. So one season in there with the top sides, and can foresee further developments off the field the year after.

Are Edinburgh South 'AMs' going to be ground sharing with Dalkeith Thistle next season? I know Tynecastle had the park that they currently hold, but this doesn't fit 'criteria'.
I know they wish to have an under 20s side next season too.

Worst kept secret in Scottish football. Did you not already know that?
Course he did cause his mouths massive.
Good appointment work already underway on changing room revamp along with other areas.
Pitch looking pristine but that's never been a problem.

Celtic are champions, Hearts are relegated and the Play Offs and Cups semis will be rescheduled
Hibs get a handle of the Scottish Cup?

Are you still looking for a GK Coaching role?

And play Burntisland in third last game who have already beaten them at home earlier this season so yes tough run in
They have just signed a boy Darren Clegg who wasn't getting a game at Glenrothes so signed with mates in Sunday amateurs and now ended up there.
If that's their standard of signing then I can't see them mounting any challenge.

It is pathetically bad, almost laughably so.
Unbelievable.
I wonder what will happen with EOS funds now as clubs must pay their annual fees. The SFA as a whole must be a profitable organisation as the money put in at the highest level as laughable also.

Not sure if this is still a thing? I do that Duns are still paying to stay as members and as yet have not applied to EOS for re-entry which is a shame given the facilities they have are very very good.Money was reduced from 10k to 2.5k iirc
When did this happen? Unreal amount to be parting with in the first place albeit now clubs have to rely heavily on sponsorship and advertising hoardings etc and arguably the lowest level of football. Clubs like Coldstream now 'relying' on Scottish Cup money again a miniscule amount very hard for clubs to bring players in and have that appeal.

If that was the side of the park last week, I can't see tomorrow going ahead either.
Nightmare when teams don't call it the night before/early as some people can work etc.

4 - 1 in the cup
2 penalties, not ideal that easthouses didn't have 'half' of the park to warm-up due to Livi ladies being on the park until 8pm with a 8.05 kick off?
1-0 at half-time to Easthouses games are won over 90 tho.

Not sure why Tranent keeper has allowed the lad to stand on his toes, and not get someone to stand in-front or behind him.(Penicuik first goal). Again culpable for the 3rd goal, but he's partial to that sort of mistake. No disputing he's a very very good keeper but should possibly stick to that rather than trying to play with the ball.

...if Saughton is playable!
At tonight's game, I was told by a LTHV official that Saturday's game v Arniston will also be at Almondvale.
That's some amount of £££ its costing them.
Last night's game was closer than the scoreline suggests also, Easthouses 1up at half time. And conceded 2 penalties in the 4 goals.

On the subject of club licensing, are Duns looking to make a come-back next season?
''We are delighted to support Duns Football Club with machinery for the next phase of their development at New Hawthorn Park.''

As well as toilets is there a solid railing between the stands and the park? Last time I was there it was a rope IIRC.
They have done some work since it opened e.g. screening off the ground.
Returning to my point about there being more to it than the spectator facilities and lights - my impression is that HW's committee is more heavily student-led than Stirling or Edinburgh. At games it's normally students doing most of the jobs versus more "adults" at the others? Given most of them will only serve for a couple of years, it may affect continuity, and their capacity for the off-field stuff? Stirling have/had a course admin working for central institution.
Edinburgh also got heavy backing to rebuild their stadium, and Stirling must be paying a decent rent.Edinburgh get 0 funding from Edinburgh Uni. Most of if not all their funds goto the hockey team.

With all that is going on in Junior football the now with quite a few teams from the West expressing desire's to join the pyramid in a potential WOSFL, surely that could well be the end for the Junior game?
What then for the future of the Ammie game?
With the Ammie game seemingly in decline also it must be time for the powers that be to look at ways of re energizing our game? The answers on how they do it won't be easy to find but the time is coming for change I feel.
One thing I would suggest would be for Leagues to merge together.
Central & Caley for example, say between them they got 60 teams split over 4 leagues,
14 team Super League, 14 team Premier League, and 1st/2nd divs made up of 16 teams each.
Surely this would be a very attractive scenario for all teams/players and it would give u balanced and competitive leagues.
I dont know the politics involved with committees etc and if something like this would even get considered as an idea but for me it would definetely be an exciting prospect.
Personally dont think the ammie game can go on in its current state and expect things to pick up, it has to make changes.
Thoughts anyone?
WOS teams are not joining the pyramid, they've refused entry into 'tier 6' or so i am led to believe.

Not a chance Saughton Enclosure will be on.
Oakley's parked was brutal last week as it is without more rain.

Wonder if this mean they'll have them up in time to keep their licence?
On that note, I see Oakley have aspirations for license too.
Alot of work to be done however, changing room at least the away one is TINY. The showers are shared not sure what else they need to meet criteria.

Don't think you need a licence for reserve games, only first team games?
As was pointed out by someone else as well, no toilets inside the ground and those are defo a licence requirement. I also don't remember (though could be wrong) disabled access to the steps to the pitch?
Uni are a good team, with a good manager in a good facility, would think they would have done it by now if it was a licenceable ground. Maybe something they have in their plans.Theres a long way round as such to the right of the exit to hearts first team changing.
Bejay is now assisant/coach with Hearts ladies as well as still managing Watt and assistant at Scotland Uni team.
He was incidentally on 'trial' so to speak at hearts many years ago whilst topping the scoring charts for the uni too. His training is very good and he's involved alot up there doing pt etc too.

Might be something as daft as the changing rooms not being inside the confines of the ground?
Can't be, official reserve games take place there...
