Pyramid Watcher Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 7 minutes ago, Kennie said: It was a proposal that was intended to be put forward by the MC for the AGM. After further discussions on it the MC decided against putting it forward. There was no consultation with the clubs in the first instance, so no consultation is required to withdraw it. What was the reason for withdrawing it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennie Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 27 minutes ago, Pyramid Watcher said: What was the reason for withdrawing it? At present, the Premier Division for next season has 7 licenced clubs out of 16. Let's say that over the next 5 seasons no-one else gets a Licence and 5 of those clubs gain promotion into the Lowland League. In year 6 we would need to relegate all teams that had remained in the Division over the 5 years. Hurlford, who finished in 6th place were the highest non-licenced club this season, so 6 years from now they could win the Premier Division and get relegated. It's also thought that through time we could be looking at a Premier Division that is populated mainly by teams that through no fault of their own, just cannot get a licence. Do they get relegated and never allowed back in if they've had 5 years? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stants1902 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Or we could have non licensed clubs obstructing the way for licensed clubs by throwing money at their sqauds and not their grounds? No point having a squad to win the premier if you dont qualify for promotion though 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last I heard the council were having an open application process on who would have the lease. I think there are a number of teams (I think Glasgow City are one of them) who are bidding on the lease. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammo Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I get that there needs to be a transparent system but my, limited, reading of it was that the only reason RobRoy left was promises of a new council built premises? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthurlie1981 Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Just now, Sammo said: I get that there needs to be a transparent system but my, limited, reading of it was that the only reason RobRoy left was promises of a new council built premises? IIRC I think the expectation was that they were going to build their own place with profits made on the sale of the land that the ground and social club were on. They ran into difficulties with SEPA as they intended on building it on a flood plain. I think the council run facility was always an alternative plan but that doesn't mean that is the reality. The council has to get the best value for money for the residents. I am sure if the KRR proposal is the best then they will get the lease but there are other parties interested (I previously heard Glasgow City were one). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
