Salvo Montalbano Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I hope someone has asked the Talbot committee/press guy what the recommendation was from the PWG since nobody has heard of that before! The state of that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do, hence why neither have signed Messi as there's doubts about whether he could do it on a rainy Tuesday night in Peterheid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Just in case anyone doesn't get what's happening by now what they are probably referring to was the directive from the SFA board to faciltate SJFA entry. There is no solution to be had on that. The EoS and LL are opposed, and the SFA have walked away from the PWG process. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EOS and LL were never opposed to the west entering the pyramid though, the fact that that hasn't happened is entirely down to the SJFA. Talbot just seem to stick their head in the sand... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbaxters Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Not surprised by the Talbot statement. Pleased they have mentioned consulting the fans but to even consider supporting the SJFA in anything is beyond me. Talbot have been the major contributors in raising the profile of the SJFA as, frankly, the SJFA couldn't find their bahookey with both hands! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNU_Linux Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Suppose that rules out Talbot as one of 'the five'. Two are already known so it's a guess from any of any of the other 13 West Premiership clubs who the other 3 are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club literally posted a statement on Facebook blaming other leagues for not supporting a fictitious PWG recommendation. 7 minutes ago, Jacksgranda said: What is the level of entry they would find acceptable? Tier 4 - too many midweek games away to Elgin, tickets will go up to £15 Tier 5 - too many Uni teams, groundsharers and clubs with no fans, would be too good for the league anyway Tier 6 - we're better than this, don't want to go and play teams in D & G, need to spend money on floodlights 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
