Personally don't think anything shall save Saturday afternoon football too many lads wanting to go watch the football. After COVID everyone's priorities has changed not enough boys willing to put football before anything else commitment levels are at an all time low with so many clubs folding ..... Friday night football for me is the way forward!

Watched the new team West Park Utd beat Fallin 1-0 today. Very good team, no disrespect to the other teams in their division but I’d be very surprised if they don’t get promoted this year.
Who else is in the running to win that devision .... are Colville still around? Did Goldenhill not join the central this year aswell ?

The problem wirh half of those teams is there is already a team in close proximity with them in the league already drumchapel pym took the step up... ek thistle are there giffnock now have st cadocs to compete with ... colville couldnt manage a full season in the central and third lanark have the history but again arent really competing . What would then happen to amatuer football if every half decent team looked to take the step up......

Surley oban fancy it bannockburn harestanes shortlees eastfeild all would probably have a good shot as well. Giffnock and st mungos do they both not have there own park to start off with

Yeah i think October is earliest we can hope for although I think realistically 2021 is more likely.
It is planned that live events such as concerts and comedy will be allowed outdoors from 24 August, with physical distancing, enhanced hygiene and restricted audience numbers.
It is hoped that organised outdoor contact sports can resume for people of all ages on the same date’ this is what was said at yesterday's press release by sturgeon so if things stay the way they are I can't see why it wouldn't happen

So with todays announcement it could be possible for football to be back at the end of August not too far away

With the announcement today it looks like it is possible for outdoor sports to begin middle of July. I wonder now if the safa shall allow training in smaller groups to resume.

And North Lanarkshire own Broadwood, but your missing my point, councils are not going to be in a financial position to put money into a facility. I was pointing out is it may be difficult for St Cadocs to find a facility in Newton Mearns.St Cadocs not ground sharing with St Roch's ...... There is a possibility that the council could rent out a place and St Cadocs have it as there own and any upgrades need to make it viable St Cadocs need to pay for it .... I think this is what Caley braves done with their place which was a North Lanarkshire up until the start of this season

my mistake ....previously Annan
How they got away with taking a local facility away from a fair few teams and boys clubs is shocking.... But a suppose that's for another thread

I think people shall want to get back into football more than ever just now with everyone been stuck in with nothing to do.... The main concern for me is the financial side to keep clubs running sponsorship shall be very difficult to get who's really going to want to hand out cash to amateur teams with not much or nothing in return

or they could go and ground share ......like east stirling , cumbernauld colts , caledonian braves and bsc glasgow..to name just a few
Who do Caledonian braves share with thought they had their own place now... That they got of the council the old Bothwellhaugh

Think it’s a bit different now from the junior game teams with ambition can progress as much as they want and teams that have maybe treading water in the professional league could find themselves being pushed down the leagues
Yeah they can be but do you really think they are going to take enough amateur players to cause the amateur game to fold probably not the good teams with those sorts of ambitions will throw money at players in the leagues higher than them.. There will of course be the odd few players from the amateur game but I don't think it's anything to worry about

It's not going to be any worse than when it was juniors.... In my view as it stands just now its still the juniors just rebranded.... The junior leagues never killed the amateur game so why should the wos. There is enough good amateur teams about that if a player was good enough to progress it would happen amateur to wos anyway.
0 -
Think that route would end up killing the amateur game... It would probably make more amateur teams fold
0 -
Definitely not too many good amateur teams about for one team to win all the time now.

That reply was more to ginaros about amateur football should be regionalised.... As for amateur teams getting promoted to the wosfl a don't know if that would work for that to happen there would have to be a team relegated which won't happen as I am assuming most teams in the wosfl shall be paying their players. If amateur teams want to take the step up then that's fine but they would have to do it the way Drumchapel Glasgow uni and the other amateur teams have done to gain access to wosfl.

Regionalised leagues aren't the answer either one or two teams could potentially win everything every season who wants that hence why the caley and central have teams from a few different regions.

It is a possibility but the first problem shall be getting morning leagues and afternoon leagues to come to an agreement of ko time.

With Oban needing a replay for the Scottish and depending on if they get through it could get a busy end of the season for them with 12 games in the league still to play not including any cup games in the league. Is there a possibility they could drop enough points to make the end of the season interesting.
0 -
A wouldn't say that 1A has better quality over all Oban are just a very good team 1B has Bridgewater who got to the semis of the west not long ago Lesmahagow who done well in the Sunday league talbot who were a prem team last year and Blantyre who won the a cup last year

Am sure you have to play each team three times this year since the league dropped to 9

Another team resigns! Seen today a well known and established team Dunoon AFC have folded.

Bit early with that campsie seem to have improved and did obc not beat Bannockburn last season am sure they have improved aswell. What's more worrying it's doesn't bode well for the new setup or amateur football two very good teams gone
