The tweet says 31 clubs participating. 39 clubs in the EoS minus the following Scottish Cup 2018/19 participants: Hawick, Preston, Burntisland, Coldstream, Linlithgow, LTHV (all licensed) Bonnyrigg (East juniors winners), Tynecastle (Cup winners from this season) Then minus Stirling Uni reserves would make it 30 clubs rather than 31 unless I've missed something?

LongTimeLurker Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 A looks weaker than B and C to me. Not sure the seeding worked quite as well as intended. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWeatherFan Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) Hawick as a top seed throws things off a little. While the team may well have improved during their stint in the Lowland, the club has traditionally been around the bottom of EoS2.

patriot1 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Well I had hoped for an away trip in one of the cups to a ground I hadn't been to. Instead we come out the hat four times all at home. But at least I'll be visiting seven new grounds in the league. I can't wait for the fixtures to come out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert James Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 1 hour ago, FairWeatherFan said: We'll probably know soon enough. Only known intention is to use 3x13 conferences in 2018-19 to form a 16 team EoS Premier in 2019-20, likely with regionalisation below to allow further members next year. I would predict that clubs will vote for regionalisation for the divisions below the EoSL Premier. However, that is for another day. Let's get the (new) show on the road, so that we can all go on holiday.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waspie Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Momentous evening! Congratulations to all the new member clubs. This is a fantastic development for the pyramid and I really hope to see a lot of the ex Juniors moving up quickly to the Lowland League - and beyond. Hopefully automatic relegation from League 2 is on the cards. Particular welcome to Sauchie. The Wee County has two senior clubs again. Could be wrong, but I don't think that's been the case since 1931. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
