Why would you ban EK?
-
The point is that they don’t have the license at the start of the play-offs. What if they get to May 15th and they still don’t get awarded it, where does that leave the play-offs.
-
The B teams are not member clubs,, only guest teams.

Ffs, is that it, take the rest of the night off.
-
It’s not though is it, as current league members they were given a timescale, any new potential new members were told their timescale, this was made clear to all. I’m not sure it’s that difficult to get.
-
They don’t need one before the play-offs, they were given a time limit to get it, that time limit is not up yet!!
-
Why? They were given a year to get it, that year is not up.
-
They were granted those derogations by the SFA licensing committee, not the SPFL. The SPFL require the Bronze license to be in place at the commencement of the play-offs otherwise the clubs haven’t met the entry criteria for the competition.
-
Was that not for SPFL waivers? It is the SFA licensing committee who ultimately grant the Bronze license.
-
The SFA couldn’t have been seen to be pre-judging the decision of the licensing committee, so plans had to be in place on the chance Buckie were approved.
-
EK only got approved at the license committee yesterday, so Buckie had until then to sort it out, then they could have been approved at the same time. I think the SFA have been generous in giving them to the last minute to sort it, Buckie didn’t, it’s on them.
-
It’s not difficult, this was intimated to all clubs last July, some chose to be proactive, some didn’t. It’s entirely fair that current member clubs are given the requisite time to get their license.
-
Nail on head.

Everyone was given fair notice, Buckie chose to ignore it, their loss. The need for EK and Buckie to get theirs now is because of the commencement of the lower pyramid playoff, the 5 current member clubs do not have that time pressure.
