  1. Since the HL are currently, in effect, a team down, they may allow the first NCL champions (if eligible) to be promoted with no team relegated to even up the numbers.
  2. Haven't McCormack and Orr both already played at SPFL level?
  3. Not sure if AsimButt's caveat re foreign cultures is intended to apply or not but I'll post this anyway; https://qldlionsfc.com.au/player/nathan-shepherd/ (And believe me, Australia IS a foreign culture...)
  4. Followed Shire home and away so never really got the chance. Also left Falkirk just after leaving school so if Shire didn't have a game there were closer options to get to than Camelon. Then of course I migrated out here which added to the travel difficulties.....
  5. Despite walking past Camelon Juniors ground every day for years on the way to and from school, I've never been to one of their games. Only Junior game I've been to (as a spectator) was the Bo'ness semi final at Brockville on their way to winning the Scottish in 1984. Only went because my Physics teacher played for them. And the only two other Junior games I've been to was as a linesman.
  6. Pretty sure that's the same one I was at, Clyde v Berwick Rangers in the final if I remember correctly.
  7. "let's please not have any flaming &/or ad hominem attacks, okay?" "Get yersel tae f**k. " So much for that....
  8. The Shire have been doing it this season for overseas fans., all of their home games and one or two away. So it's definitely feasible. I've watched about 12 games out here in Aus via a website called mycujoo.tv Works pretty well apart from some serious buffering on the first game.
  9. I'd also then have a play-off between team 41 and the LL/HL losers. Keeps the format consistent across the four SPFL levels.
  10. Personally, it was a bit of a relief that there was actually somewhere to go. We'd been staring at oblivion for years through the £10 a week era and for a long time it seriously looked like we'd cease to exist. First season in the LL was obviously the time to win it and get straight back up, there was only us and East Kilbride in it, but typical Shire, blew it big style. Seriously wonder if we'll ever get out of it now with the way it's going, obviously it's only getting stronger with time. I won't be too despondent if this turns out to be our level, but I'd fear for our future if we were ever relegated to the EoS.
  11. Connor Greene leaving. We're going to miss him.
  12. Dyer picked up a serious injury in our second pre-season friendly. Got back to fitness and into the team in October, played about three games and injured again. He was back in the team and looked like becoming a regular before C-19 brought the season to an end.
  13. They already have a regional set up directly below their own bottom league.
  14. All licensed clubs qualify automatically. If a non licensed club wins the EoS or SoS, they also qualify. As only two WoS clubs are licensed, the only way any of the other 65 can qualify is to win the WoS title.
  15. SoSFL will remain Tier 6. West Juniors will have nothing to do with the Pyramid.
  16. Many thanks gents, much appreciated.
  17. No, the question is Junior football, what is the future?
  18. Junior football, what is the future?Just reminding everyone what this thread is supposed to be about. Don't think there's an on topic post in at least the last three pages.
  19. An ex-pat Pommie friend of mine out here in Australia visited his cousin on a recent trip home. Cousin's husband showed him the caps in the attached pic which had belonged to his grandfather, John McQuade, who played for Neilston, Arthurlie and St Mirren. He asked if I could find any details of what games they might be from. I've found from the SFHA that the 1920 SvI is from Scotland Juniors v Ireland; John McQuade of Neilston Vic played and scored in a 3-0 victory. Scotland also played Ireland in 1913 but the team listed in SFHA doesn't include McQuade so I'm not sure how it came to be in his possession. Finally, GvI 1920-21 is a complete mystery. Could "G" be Glasgow? Any help that anyone can provide would be much appreciated.
