For Entry Level, floodlights aren't required, but: "Clubs that have a floodlight system at the ground are recommended to have the following minimum levels: Average – 200 lux Min/Max – 0.25" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardenvohr6 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 What chance the SJFA giving the minimum allowable notice, making it impossible for clubs to call an EGM? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnie_man Posted March 30, 2018 Author Share Posted March 30, 2018 Isn't the suggestion that the EGM is going to be held immediately before the AGM on the same day? so you're looking at the 16th June? Everyone knows the SJFA wont cut a deal in time for next season (if at all) so if clubs want to be in the Pyramid next season, they need to make moves now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 You can always withdraw an application, so they could have put one in with the EGM deciding whether to proceed with it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me once the Juniors said they were going to discuss going into the pyramid and most clubs wanted to do this per the questionnaire then I would be trying to get out as soon as possible ! or run the risk of being in EOS 2 ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ONeils40yarder Posted March 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) I've followed Junior football since I was a kid, although not regularly anymore due to other commitments. For the life of me, I can't understand why any Junior club would vote 'against' the notion of a complete pyramid. Fixture lists being compiled properly, sponsorship, more exposure on a national level, a degree of professionalism trying to increase and maintain standards. If done correctly, the bigger clubs such as Talbot and Linlithgow, will still be the 'big fish in the wee pond', with the chance of 'national level silverware' each season, if the Scottish Junior Cup is renamed the 'SFA non-league cup' or something, similar to that to be found in the FA Vase down South. The smaller clubs, lacking in facilities, such as my local team, Bellshill Athletic, would find their own level within the pyramid, just the same as they've found their current level in the Juniors...but with a far bigger incentive to actually improve their lot and even aim for a license in years down the line, with a bit of ambition and possible financial gains. I see Athletic voted against it, and that disappoints me. The whole discussion, to me, sums up Scottish society in a way, complete and total negativity from some for no other possible reason than being feart of any type of change.

Might give Johnston a chance to rehearse his party piece to those assembled prior to a repeat performance at the SJFA AGM to an audience of 55. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
