The South West Peninsula League is the last remaining league with the top division at Level 10. The F.A. ordered discussions to take place so that the Western League would absorb these divisions but I heard that talks broke down. There will come a time when the F.A. impose a decision from the top but it would be better if agreement could be reached.
Living in the area this was always my favourite league as it bridged the gap between professional level 10 and amateur level 11. I remember watching a team and paying £3 entry one season then when they were relegated the entry was free. I felt this was a way for clubs to learn about the professional levels without having to commit to losing money.
The top team from the east and the top team from the west are the only two teams to be promoted up to the Western League.
Brixham & St Blazey should both feature in the Western League Premier Division next season.
