Scottish League One And Two Clubs Have Presented A Proposal To The Scottish FA In Their Bid To Restart Their Campaigns

Hampden Park, Scotland Scottish League Football below Championship level is currently suspended until January 31 following a decision made earlier this month by the Scottish FA.

However, 20 clubs from the third and fourth tiers of Scottish football have joined forces to create a document, entitled "A Route to Playing Again", which they believe will pave a way for the leagues to restart and be safely concluded.

After this document was presented to the Scottish FA a spokesman for the clubs said "We are all aware of the ongoing impact of the pandemic on everyone's lives.



"We take our responsibilities to our staff and players seriously and that's why we have complied with all that has been asked of us to date.

"However, we have used the pause in playing to look at what more we can do to create a route to us playing again in a way that reassures the football authorities and the Scottish Government.

"We know that football can be a force for good and that our games allow our fans to have one familiar activity available to them at a difficult time, but we also recognise that we need to do more if we want to restart and this proposal lays out what that might look like including the introduction of PCR testing.

"We understand the difficult position the Scottish FA found itself in when it suspended our leagues. But there will have to be a decision made about when we restart. So we wanted to support and assist in the decision-making process.

"This document shows that, in coming together with common purpose, 20 clubs are committed to this process and hope that the SFA will treat this proposal with the consideration it deserves."
