They don't have the new first team yet, so don't need a ground for them! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think that'll happen until there's straight promotions into the spfl without a play off.but there is ongoing talks with the spfl board and the LL and the Highland League which will resume after this virus thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current PYM team set up will be the WoSFL side under the name Drumchapel United. They're considering carrying on the PYM name and their spot in the Central if they can find management for it. I'm guessing the playing staff will end up being a mix of current side and new players. Just by the nature of some players opting to remain amateur, whether that's under the PYM continuation or another ams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Starko Rover Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Have the SJFA or TJ said anything about this plan or the NRJFA and ERJFA. I doubt GR and the WRJFA have just gone rogue with the Cup but it’s just strange no one from the SJFA seems to have said anything about the deal between the WRJFA and LL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're going to have conferences and a championship playoff. Looking a good possibility of 4 different conference champions competing in that. Let's just say that's the current top 4 in the West Premiership: Kilwinning Rangers, Pollok, Auchinleck Talbot, and Irvine Meadow XI. All four need to throw up floodlights between now and February. Kilwinning still need to set up cover according to NLS. Then there are other aspects to licencing that we don't really talk about that might need quite a bit of work. Dalkeith Thistle were seen as a shoe in to be one of the first licenced having declared for the EoSFL all the way back in January 2018. Over two years later they are still unlicenced. I don't see the Lowland League rushing to create a second automatic promotion spot when there's no guarantee that it will be filled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With any normal organisation you would have expected a public comment by now but as we saw with the lack of condemnation of the Scott Robertson incident the SJFA are not good at public pronouncements. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestman54 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Ive just seen that in England theyve expunged all results and cancelled the season for tiers 3 and below. I wonder if that will have a knock on effect in Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should already have been at least two places before the WoS was set up and now there should be three. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginaro Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Just considering the SJFA numbers again - if the East loses 8 clubs then the East + North are down to 62, and thus outnumbered by the West. But if Kilwinning and Clydebank leave then the West are down to 61. So how will these proposed changes to the priority of the Junior Cup get passed by the membership if the vote goes along regional lines? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's tier 3 of their non-league pyramid, not their overall pyramid, btw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The statement is pretty dramatic. However their just giving page was looking for only £500 which has already been reached. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These aren't the only clubs that will be looking to get what they can having lost the main revenue generators they have. Sure i've seen a few others already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Drumchapel AFC own Glenhead. DUPYMAFC 1st team use Donald Dewar. Sharing the Hibbee with another team didn't work out too well last time!It worked out ok for the Ams, they got their ground done up pretty well for nothing and then spat the dummy out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
