No, for 19-20, once they form vertical divisions. Will it be a 12/14/16 team league, with regional below, or 3 vertical divisions? I've not seen that anywhere.

For 2019/20, how about 16 club Premier (tier 6), with 2 x 16 Regional divisions, both at tier 7.

Opens up the EoSL for another 9 applicants  (or 8 plus Clydebank).

Think it's clear they'll take whoever applies in the east region south of the Tay and there's nothing magical about 32 or 36 for that matter. I'd be amazed if there isn't a WoSL in 2019/20 now after the 12 months notice thing today.

That's a good point actually. If the SJFA tries to put forward the rule that 12 month notice applied to all leagues and not just Regions. Between now and the 16th we could be dealing with the same rumour mill we've seen in the East applied to the West of Scotland with clubs having to consider their notices.

For the visual learners out there... The future of the SJFA when faced with the pyramid.

Missing four I think. Hawick, Leith, Peebles and Tweedmouth from Pot 1 not accounted for yet.

Which group are St Andrews in???

Heard from a 100% reliable source that Kelty Hearts have decided to join the pyramid and see how far they can go. Obviously they will be starting at the bottom and are expected to be playing in the East of Scotland League from next season while they go through the licencing process.

 

The first post above.  It seems like a very long time ago now, and no one would have guessed what would happen inside 14 months.

Sauchie has just issued an official statement on twitter: 

We'll be in conference B of the East of Scotland League next season, after our application was accepted. Look forward to meeting foes old and new.

So how many qualify from league cup groups

Don't know. Ten group winners and best six second placed?

10 winners enter first round, 9 runners up enter prelimenary round plus a best 3rd place. Something like that.

That only gives you 15 teams in the first round. Six best runners up makes more sense.
