Sherrif John Bunnell Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I have heard that a few young boys recently released after the Nairn County B was dissolved have turned down signing for Nairn Saints as they don't want to commit the long journey east every fortnight. They would rather play North Caley or even drop to Amateur/Welfare instead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you see any prospect of Nairn St Ninian or any other of the more westerly North Junior clubs making the switch to the NCal before too long? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe any club shifting from the North Juniors to the NCL is taking a step down. I'd rather see two regional leagues in the North Juniors 1st Division East and West, but at the moment there aren't enough clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I had in mind was the mention that some of the former Nairn County Colts side were preferring the NCal to the North Juniors due to the travelling. Also they'd had first hand experience of playing in the NCal. Is it possible that Nairn St Ninian will have to change due to that is what younger players want? If they go will Forres Thistle and Burghead go also? There might also be Strathspey Thistle having to make the choice in years to come. That could all help to improve the NCal and improve its' standing in the Highland League area. Edited June 14, 2023 by Dev . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParkTheBusFitbaPod Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 As the North Juniors start this week we have done a little preview for it. https://parkthebusfitbapodcast.buzzsprout.com/1595431/13267057-north-junior-preview-10-min Full transparency is that we don't know too much about the league but are learning and appreciate all feedback 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
