  1. I haven’t seen catrine this season how are they gettin on?... I’m not sure the ins and out of the Glenburn thing but that’s what I heard.

    Probably one of the best pitches in amateur football (on its day) lol, catrine up and down the season, 4/5 starters out in sat but sure crosshouse will be the same no doubt though, so shall be a good gem of football
  2. Having heard some of the players mauchline have either signed then I don't think it will be long before they start picking up points. Think it's 4 players that started the season with either thistle or shortlees a couple from catrine, and a couple ex juniors. Fair play to them and hope that continues during the Xmas break and they can be as competitive( if not more) as they were last week against craigie. I didn't see or haven't heard any thing about yesterday's game but seems that they are moving in the right direction.

    The Mossblown result shocked me a little, they seemed to be on a good run and glenmuir seemed to be a little off it in recent weeks. Not sure if we can read too much into mid December results tho as teams really struggle with Xmas work nights out and players needing extra shifts for the fat man coming. I can guarantee there was alot of teams delighted when they seen that weather warning issues.

    On that note, catrine pitch is one of Ayrshire better grass pitches, called off about 2 miles away from mauchline, one of Ayrshire worst grass pitches?? Or was the mauchline game taken to astro?

    Catrine pitch was frozen in parts, not worth this risk to players
  3. Bark, Stevie Glass just finished playing took the whitletts job in summer at 33 yo. When Tony first came out of boys club  he signed for our old ayr amateurs team. Most of that team stayed together including myself going from there to Craigmark then to Wallacetoun eventually merging into whitletts last year. I've not played in 2 year and hardly saw a game but a lot of the boys are really close and that's the reason boys like Tony are back at amatur level mate. It looks like a common theme in a afa at the minute there seems to be a lot of boys playing lower than they probably should be. Hope that clears it up a bit

    That’s good to hear mate, getting a close bunch a boys is half the battle! Wish you’s all the best in the season bud
  4. Shocked at this from you bark. Being a catrine man and having the players uz had in the 3rd and 4th divisions. Imo one of the best centre halves in Ayrshire so why is it so crazy to think balfour is that good?

    I’m not questioning their abilities or that mate I was just wanting to know there story, why they weren’t going to higher level and I had never heard of any of them but read the bit about the boy Balfour and seems like a real good junior player etc, but the boy answered my question above saying it’s their local team etc, which is good to hear.
  5. Whoever puts in Enough work at training etc, and is performing on the park, if your good enough to start and your on the bench then your either not turning up to training or trying hard enough and the player on the park ahead of you is doing everything he should be doing, but end of the day it’s hard to take being on the bench but you should know it’s a team game and your time will come

    It's a shame this is being played so early, I think it will be a decent game regardless but with holidays and suspensions that usually come at the start of the season it may do the game a dis service. Also agree with the big numbers new farm have, the quality they had even on the bench last week they simply can't keep everyone happy. I tel u something, if I was the waverly or craigie manager I would be showing the players this thread. Not many people given them a chance, they BOTH came up at league winners.

    Got to agree with that mate, the manager should be showing this and telling them to go out and prove everyone wrong! I tipped waverly as one of my winners but Craigie will
    Definitely be up there as well, strongest this league has been in couple years I’d say
