I asked the question and you provided an answer, which makes sense and appreciated. I just don’t think other clubs should be mentioned privately or publicly to clubs and it should be the decision of the club themselves if the wish to make their transfer business public. This type of thing can unsettle players and squads at this stage of a season. I’m maybe old fashioned when it comes to these values and not a fan of it.

Why would the Darvel manager know Pollok or Talbot’s business and who they speak to?

Leave the backward junior set up and it will all be ok was the shout

Great result can see why lots of good fans don’t read or listen to this forum

The Pollok result was massive but feel that yesterday could be really big when the prizes are given out at the end of the season. Good to see Shankland back, need to get him fit as massive games coming up. Would like to see us sign a couple of good players to get us through the season. Midfielder and another defender for the squad.

You’ve got to allow for some inconsistency with young players, also don’t go for slating any Talbot player in public.

Think he will end up having a good career. Lots of potential who can get up and down the pitch.

I also considered how East teams performed in the junior cup for the last few years and when that gets to the quarters (in the old format when every team was in) was dominated by the west teams. All the best to your team trying to progress as this is a bit of pointless chat as it won’t change anyway.

All about opinions.

Agree with a good bit you are saying as was surprised where Bo’ness were sitting, kept it quite simple removing the B teams and naturally the top 3 without them now LL stalwarts, I went with as many WOSL teams as I personally think the standard has been good in the first season I think if you put in any of the top 11 clubs into the LL this season they would be top half, all about opinions as I would like to see good competitive sides like Bo’ness and Berwick in the league.

Probably the only teams to stay in it would be Bonnyrigg, The Spartans and East Kilbride with the rest replaced by the top 4 in the East Premier League and the rest coming from the top 11 of the WOS premier league

Kenny Paterson

Has Lyle asked to leave? I thought he was wanting to stay and fight for his place?

Where do Talbot fans stop? Gemmell, W Young, Findlay, Paterson, Mills, Slavin, McCulloch, B Young, G Wilson

He playing Hearts in the next round?

Very tiny minority I would say tbh

We pay players wages patter is poor from any football fan. Players are part time and human at the end of the day. We are not entitled to beat any team and disrespectful to other teams. It was a cup game we are through move on. It’s just not realistic to win every match in style by goals, remember these boys also had a season out. Fans have also a part to play when teams are not playing well by encouraging and getting behind the players.

Disappointed for the unbeaten run to end it had to sometime, just disappointed it wasn’t against a team further down the league. I would have grabbed your hand off at the start of the season to be where we are now. I’m not sure how you can manage the expectations of some after one defeat, but need to keep everything in perspective that we are the team that everyone else is chasing down.

Guy does lots of good things for the club and as someone who doesn’t get to every game really appreciate what he does. Don’t get why you would be negative towards a club volunteer

You will need to double that for me old pal

Is this a parody account?? I don’t even think it’s a Cumnock supporter

Not much TV money that round clubs would make more hospitality on a Saturday

The name has changed but the game hasn’t, genually think some people thought that the product would be different with a new name!! You need to win the battles at this level before you get to play, that’s what’s great about it.

A lot of this sums up the way Darvel have decided to promote themselves. Very visible and in my opinion attention seeking. I fully support clubs improving facilities and infrastructure and I fully salute them for that, however the playing side has been different and right in everyone’s faces with some unbelievable statements for intent to progress. I think I even remember the chairman on the telly saying that they were being called the Man City of the “Juniors” embarrassing stuff which builds you up to fall. The people I feel sorry for a the genuine Darvel fans who have followed them all their life through thick and thin, real fans who have had their hopes built up by the unrealistic vision given out by the club.

They all remember the famous draw which caused wild celebrations!!
