Sign me up. Oh hold on, eh eh the SFA says they can only handle one league in the West. Right lads problem solved. Diddies can have ABC diddy leagues. Psst, don't anybody mention when the EoSFL expanded a couple of years back they had all in Conference leagues for the first season. If you fancy a four page arguement on Sporting Integrity fire on. AIUI the SFA's objection was because they couldn't provide enough referees etc. for an additional 30+ level 6 games each week. That wasn't a problem when the EOS expanded. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only worry is some elements still think they can pull the same snide tricks from Junior days. Call ourselves Senior then we better act Senior. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wasn't a problem when the EOS expanded.It wasn't the referees that was an issue, it was the administration of discipline. The SFA said they didn't have the capacity to administer another 67 clubs under the Judicial Panel Protocol. So now the tier 6 is under the JPP, while discipline in the conferences (and the tiered leagues which will follow) will be administered by the WoSFL, under the same rules as the JPP. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
