I read on FW thread on highland asking how they retain their SFA Licence. A valid question. It is what it is, a shite debacle but lets not be surprised that the sfa has given the green light to tin pot behaviour, its their raison de etre. We’ll just need to go up there and spank these turnip munchers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Know I'm looking way too far into the future. But! What's the latest on Beith's Licence Journey? Surely West can't go another season with no licenced champ. Fully aware Beith are trying going on what was said end of last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The West should adapt a format where if the winner isn’t licensed 2nd or 3rd whatever which is licensed should go into the playoff. Like the LL if a B team wins the team behind them should go up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the LL if a B team wins the team behind them should go up. I think the LL can block it. Remember in the old EOS days a licenced team would finish 2nd but weren't eligible. Same happens with SOS Creetown finished behind Vale and were not put forward for the play offs. In the near future all Tier 6 teams might need to be licenced or at least being seen to be engaged n the process. Licencing is not easy when it comes to cut off points. Same when Bronze is brought in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Are new licenses not being suspended at the moment? With that surely the Lowland League should give tier 6 winners some grace period? Or would they rather have likes of Jeanfield Swifts / Haddington than Beith / Hurlford in "their" league...so less of a threat! Even Troon who have got their floodlights havent got a license as there is so much to it but as Fort William have shown once you are in then easier to keep your license no matter what is happening to your ground! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to @glensmad, there is a lot to do annually to retain the license. Also, much as I hate the LL, doubt they have a say in who comes up. Guess it will be written at a national level. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be something in place, as if the champion is non licenced there is no avenue for the highest placed licencee to be put forward for promotion to LLland. As happened in both WOS and SOS last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Lower Pyramid Play-Off" is a binding agreement between the four leagues (LL / WoSFL / EoSFL / SoSFL) and any changes to it have to be agreed by all four parties, before being ratified by the Scottish FA. Prior to the existence of the WoSFL it was a 3-way agreement and needed all three parties' agreement for the WoSFL to become part of the agreement. That's why the old SJFA could never have been part of the agreement with their policy of "all in together" (including the East Region) as the EoSFL would have blocked it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeanfield would beat you and probably give Pollok a game. Having said that it would be good to have a West of Scotland League team in the LL. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Beith and Hurlford have already started the licensing process with the SFA (and I think it has been confirmed that Beith have for sure) I don't think there is a problem. All that has been blocked is accepting new applications AFAIA and from what was said I think that will open up again soon.
