Ignore the bitter losers, Govan is fine. Get the right part of it and you'll be fine and dandy. Essentially anything with a G51 postcode is what the losers would class as Govan and you can find plenty of great places.
8 and a half years on Langlands Road and proud.

Its amazing hwo Hearts have gone from being a team that nobody outside of edinburgh gives a single iota of thought about to being the most hated team in Scotland. Managing to make yourself more unpopular than two clubs that exist simply to stoke the fires of religious bigotry and intolerance in the general population is some going.

Stirling Albion were 8 points off Alloa in top spot with 6 games to play in 2009-10 , tier 3, they went top with 2 games to play and won the title.
The Alloa bottle crash was so severe they didn't even win the playoffs.
Bound to be bigger ones than that.

As someone whose last remaining parent is 70+ there is no way I'm going to visit him right now when this thing can be in your body for 2 weeks before symptoms show. I don't want to kill him because that p***k at work decided to come in when they had a fever and cough.
How can visits from family and neighbours be deemed an acceptable risk but bingo isn't?

To change any SPFL rule retrospectively would just be wrong.
Hence, the only option, unfortunately for many clubs, is declaring this season void.
Cant void the season as they wouldn't be fulfilling contractual obligations with sponsors and broadcasters never mind fans too. All due money back
Any sponsor or broadcaster wanting their money back off the biggest crisis the world has faced since 1962 would be committing commercial suicide.

There is a potential 4 month lockdown coming for anyone over 70, start worrying about next season rather than this one. Its done.

This is what the EIS are saying is a possibility, that we'll limp on until the Easter Holidays and that will be it. A skeleton staff for exams for senior pupils.
Peston clearly has a govt approved leak to get the news out before any sort of official announcement this week,

Just putting this out here
The more this topic is argued on here the more inept all involved appear to be.
After 1000's of posts no once is any clearer wtf is actually happening
Juniors are dead mate, cant be any clearer than that.

It can't be emphasised enough how much the Juniors have misplayed their hand over the last decade or so. At any point up until 2013, if the SJFA had engaged properly they could have quite easily had control of Scottish football from the 6th tier down, in addition to being instrumental in setting up the 5th tier Lowland Division. Most likely we would have seen a merger of the EoS and SoS (and maybe the NCL) into the existing Junior structure, with the whole thing probably mostly being administered by the SJFA.
Instead they buried their heads in the sand and let others basically pick away at their position of strength, and now there is the very real possibility that we're going to have 6 (or even 7 or 8?) tiers in the Highlands and Lowlands organised and set up by other bodies, with the Juniors whittled down to a small band of die hards with almost no power.
Kelty have essentially switched off the life support machine for Junior football by taking one simple step.
My word.

We look to be part of the pyramid preferably within the juniorsYou cant be part of the Pyramid within the Juniors, joining the Pyramid makes you Senior.
You can be part of the Pyramid within the current West Junior structure if it did move as one but the Pyramid is senior and every West club would become a senior club.

The reverse ferreting from LTL is a sight to behold, does he really think we've forgotten the months and months of anti Senior bullshit and lies he's been coming out with?

Pray for LTL and SBA on this day of days.

Never really understood clubs moving to the pyramid either unless looking to go Senior.
Clubs in the pyramid are senior, if the SJFA had acted on the will of its members and got them all in the pyramid they would all be Senior clubs.

The bottom two leagues are where you will find those most resistant to moving as they don't see licencing as attainable and don't care about getting promoted beyond where they can already go in the juniors framework.
On the same podcast the manager mentioned the importance of a good pitch to attract players as they weren't paying anything. That last summer they did up the home dressing room. Then summer it will be the away dressing room.
They're basically operated by volunteers. There's no money for floodlights let alone all the other requirements they'd have to chase up. It's a similar situation at a lot of clubs in the lowest divisions.
If only there was an example of a perennial lower league team in the West Juniors who were run by a small committee of volunteers who decided, after weighing up the information, to move to the higher leagues in the Senior pyramid and DESPITE all these problems they faced somehow managed to put in floodlights, covered terracing and do up the dressing rooms.
If only...….

The Vale of Clyde manager was on the last voice of the juniors podcast.
He mentioned how he wanted the Sectional League Cup looked at. Because travelling to Vale of Leven midweek once every other year was too much.
I just used them as a club from the lower leagues, I've no idea if those clubs would want to move but they are the sort of clubs, essentially everyone in the bottom two leagues, that should be agitating for a move to the pyramid. The benefits of joining the senior leagues are clear to see for everyone with a rational passing interest in football.

You'd think this was a perfect scenario for small west junior teams to get a massive jump on their traditionally bigger rivals.
Yes.
The likes of Neilston, Carluke and Vale of Clyde should be planning to move right now, leave behind the "Big hoose must stay open" brigade from Ayrshire and get a decent placing in the pyramid.

Not in the least surprising that he would take that posture after Option Z was blocked given the PWG meetings were directed by the SFA board to facilitate SJFA entry and have now reached a complete impasse on doing so. He probably has better things to do with his time. After blocking Option Z, the onus is now on the LL to add extra divisions to its structure to cover the west. If all the LL did was say there should be a WoSFL with no suggestion that they would be the ones actually launching it, that's a wee bit different from what was being peddled on here in recent days.
Mate, the only one who has been peddling gubbins on here for weeks has been you.
You've been shown up right royally.

My buttocks are clenching at reading that - time to accept the past is history and the future is the way ahead.
Those clinging to the Junior past are those that will soon be left behind.
