Andy groundhopper Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Correct decision as there's a possibility that another stop-start run of games could have happened. Onto a glorious new season with every club intact financially, and (hopefully) increased attendances across the league's. Well done to all clubs for trying, and to all volunteers behind the scenes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I see the highland league has declared Brora champions after 3 games. Interesting. Look im not asking for Clydebank to be declared Champions of anything or whatever but surely if that league can be declared on that basis then there is an argument for at least letting the top team who’ve played more than double the games of Brora get a shot at LL promotion? Absolutely accept that as a Bankies fan ive got a vested interest but i’d feel the same way if it was Darvel who won with a ppg, not even sure it would be us if such a calculation was done, maybe Troon? Anyway if the HL can do it then consideration should be given? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not man of the match Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Would make sense in fairness if nominating a team is allowed or declaring to get a team in. I was unaware of the Brora thing until mentioned. Are all the clubs in the ‘lower pyramid’ playing to different rules? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, they were but the decision was to put them and kelty up for it as champions of THIS season. Dont get me wrong Brora deserved their chance last year, but it was last year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it would have went down incredibly well that one of the first acts as the Chair of the league was to declare his team WoS Premier Division champions. What the Highland and Lowland have done is as much based on last season as this season. Considering how the interim board looked at multiple options, and the new board had a certain overlap. They probably did look at declaring a Champion on PPG and decided that null & void was the best option. Much as i'm expecting the EoSFL to do soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont get me wrong Brora deserved their chance last year, but it was last year. Look, of course the league is ‘saying’ it’s due to this season, but Ginaro is absolutely spot on. If that had been any other team in the league who happened to be top after just 3 games, there’s absolutely no way they’d even have dreamt of calling the league, especially as others had only played 1 game, and in one instance a team (Strathspey) hadn’t even played a single game. The league took this as an obvious opportunity, rightly in my book, to rectify what happened last year and put Brora forward. Lowland had intimidated as late as Jan to member clubs that they would call their leagues only if they got to half way or more. They didn’t get that far, but put Kelty forward. Normally you could legitimately question both calls. especially in the Highland scenario, but it looks like last seasons winners have been given the chance to battle it out in late Apr/early May, and I for one can’t wait. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont get me wrong Brora deserved their chance last year, but it was last year. Well that's the same thing though as they were both top in each season on PPG. And since the leagues couldn't put them up for it last season, nor could they put them up for this season if they went null and void, they had to make them champions this season on PPG. Quite simply the pros outweighed the cons in the minds of the HL/LL boards. It's the opposite case in terms of awarding Clydebank the league. Similar to last season with the West Region, but they probably didn't have to think about the future given it was their last decision as a committee. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
