Hughheffner69 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 What's the thoughts on a super cup between 4 top premier league west Saturday afternoon teams Central Ayrshire Caledonian league SAFL Could be played at the start of a new season and played at a good venue ?

Gunner Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 why afternoon only? and why west only? Kinda dont see the point in there being a tourney for the best west of scotland afternoon league team. I'm sure the interleague tourney represents the leagues just fine.

dr lector Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Don't think it truly represents each league, most league select side struggle to field 16 each time there's a game because of call offs .. in theory the super cup could work but have 8 leagues represented 1/4 . 1/2 then final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughheffner69 Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 It's just a idea for a cup Said Saturday afternoon because it could be 4 team play off Could add in Saturday morning or East of Scotland league it's were you would draw the line Bit of interest for league winners the start of the falling season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latapythelegend Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Anything like would need representation from every association for it to be credible. Not just focused on the West of Scotland bubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never saw any of these games , could have a fair point about being a match for them but both cally and central won in the end up. Will be interesting to see who wins between they 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latapythelegend Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 He said Saturday afternoons coz Saturday morning leagues are not v.good Surely all the more reason to prove it then? If they are that bad then it would be up to representative of another league to prove it by beating them. There is a massive sense of arrogance from those who beleive that certain leagues and associations are all that matters or are worth discussing in amateur football when that certainly isn't the case.

Gunner Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 A select side gives a far better reflection of the league than their top team. Are we saying colville is a representation of the overall standard of the central? Is blochairn star a representation of the overall standard of the SSMAFL? Neither are.

Well you'd like to think so mate but sadly it's not the case as I know the LEAFA select team and IMO there are better players left out the squad. Obviously reasons for them not being involved but a players ability isn't always represented by the league or team they play in and that will always be the case.

Think this is the case in most of the select sides. Always seems to be players left out most would assume would be more than capable of playing with the select sides. But there is a limited amount of numbers available in these squads and a big pool of players to choose from. Can't please everyone ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nizza Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I previously proposed a Champions Cup to the Amateurs, and was looking for backing from them similar to the Inter Regions Trophy. Looking at the club winners of each of the Regional Trophies (ie West/East of Scotland Cup winners etc).This would form a straight knock out competition. Games either played at a central location or at a venue agreed by both teams and SAFA. Proposed that SAFA, for these games, would cover pitch ref travel costs for clubs.Dont know what buy in it would get tbh, but he proposals didnt go very far given the recent introduction of the Inter Regions Trophy..... maybe in due course.I know there are lots of games for some teams throughout the season, however here i dont see more than 3 games for any team q/f (for some given numbers) then sf and final. Can be played at different points througout the season (either form part of preseason before league season kicks off etc).See if anything happens in time i guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughheffner69 Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 Nizza A think it's a good shout , and a good attraction to teams for winning there respective league Or As you say even a north , east , south , west of Scotland winners Am sure someone at the SAFA could come up with something .

xnxx Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 So no teams from Fife or Tayside as it would be north,south,east and west of Scotland cup winners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
