redandyellowallover Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 At the media briefing this afternoon, Jason Leitch said that he thought there were plans to restart training for the lower leagues soon and that discussions were continuing over the weekend and that there would be an announcement "soon". Sounds semi-promising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Ender Posted March 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 I've just noticed I started this thread over a year ago. There's no way I was thinking that it would still be going after all this time. I can't actually get my head round it. Football is important but it's not more important than life. Here's to all the jags fans who are no longer with us. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Dastardly Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 I see Brora are Highland league champions after playing just 3 games on a points per game basis Buckie, Formartine and Inverurie all had 100% records after 2 games, but a worse goal difference Strathspey and Forres didn't even get their season started. Total lunacy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total lunacy. Agree it's lunacy. Unless it a mechanism (npi re Forres) to put a club forward to play off against Lowland opposition and ultimately v Brechin?

I would have expected like last season Brechin would get every bit of assistance to stop them leaving league. As things stand I reckon Brora would tear Brechin a new one in a match.

We only need Brechin City in there for a rerun of last year's debacle. The SPFL have no reason to cancel this year's play off, so hopefully, at long last, goodbye Brechin.

Auld Jag Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) The SPFL have not yet confirmed they will put a team forward for the play off. Last season the reason/excuse was because the season was not completed. What reason/excuse this season if they don't put a team forward?

As I understand it a club can only be put forward for the play off against the winners of the Highland/Lowland League play off if ... 1/League Two fixtures have been played to a pre arranged conclusion. 2/During the week immediately ensuing the conclusion of League Two more than one colour of wheely bin is due for collection in the area surrounding both participating clubs. 3/Any new club applying for membership of the 4th tier of the SPFL must have a ground suitable for inclusion. Facilities must include the applicant club providing a hedge adjacent to the playing surface. That hedge must exceed 50 metres in length and 4 metres in height and must be in place by April 30th.

fifexile Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 I believe that the league 2 playoff game is to be a one off and played to a finish. The end of the game is defined as any point that the league 2 team is actually winning the game. A variation of 'next goal is the winner' and 'ma baw, ma rules 'from the school playground.

Dick Dastardly Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 Well here is a shocker. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/56696019 "However, the SPFL points out Kelty had played just 13 games and Brora only three this season and that it is not yet certain whether League 2 clubs will complete all 22 planned matches. It will therefore decide on 19 April whether either Kelty or Brora "meet the SPFL's membership criteria". "Only then will the SPFL be in a position to announce the position in respect of pyramid play-offs this season," it stated." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
