As long as they are good enough to take us up i will be happy. Then we can see where we are and start recruiting accordingly. Your backhanded compliment may well be spot on as Glencairn struggled with these boys in their ranks in the top teir last year. This level is where most of them would possibly have ended up anyway as Glens could well have joined us but for covid19. I have a feeling with a bit of luck and better coaching they may well improve on past performances.
Strange statement about the coaching were they not being coached by your current coach and I therefor assume you feel your new manager who I understand is a nice guy will be in charge of the coaching which I don`t see going down well with George Fatheringham just an outside observation and not intended as dig of any sort before anyone jumps on their high horse

The club has tried engaging with this crowd as it is the same crowd doing the damage over and over again but no matter what they try they just keep coming back and doing more damage They just don’t want to listen they are there at night time drinking smoking hash and breaking bottles all over the face and I know they have also damaged fencing over and over again I ask the question how do you stop it if their parents don’t give a dam

kirkintilloch and rutherglen were all but gone and should get relegated , if no relegation promote 3 teams from champioship and make 20 team league , leagues wont start in all probability this year so play everyone once and have a 19 game league season
Glencairn had 14 games remaining 11 at home so we’re far from gone and all injured players were fully fit again ask Kilwinning if they felt we were already gone

If they can decide titles on average points then surely they can relegate the teams sitting in the bottom 2 places in premiership
Can understand your frustration and agree that the three teams should be promoted but in all honesty the teams in the lower area of premier should not be disadvantaged as no relegation or promotion was mention when leagues were closed and officially the juniors no longer exist

No that is only in the Senior professional contract in the Juniors which at the moment all teams are still a member of you can not officially note I did say officially talk to players until their contracts finish but as we all know tapping is a big part of the junior set up and every one does it may be that will be frowned upon in the WOSFL

The first agreement would be valid but peter I’m sure you would love a bit of a drama to have some fun with or this is not all a drama and be fine and each will just continue to move forward as we go into these exciting times
Not so the first agreement to go through the registration system at Hampden would be the valid one eg lets say that Team (A) sent their registration documents in at 8 am on the 21st of June but team B who the player had changed his mind and decided to join had registered their documents before 8 am then team B would be the team that the player was registered for

They wanted to sign Macduff then loan him out I’m hearing there’s about 20 signed players at the moment
Would find that strange as the contracts of players do not at best finish until the 3rd week in June therefor a bit oops a lot of TAPPING must have taken place NOT surprised

Just following on from the clubs statement I'd just like to say thanks to a few people. First of all George, the chairman of the club. As everybody knows he is Mr Cumbernauld United and has been at the club for many years. Its been a pleasure working for him and he is what junior football is all about. Our aim together was to get Cumbernauld in to the top league and I think we were on track to do that this year after narrowly missing our last year. I hope he has many more successful years ahead at Cumbernauld as he thoroughly deserves them for everything he puts in. Secondly the committee, Kirky, Nessy, Robbie and Eric. More proper junior guys who I now have a friendship with and will enjoy having a beer with at the games instead of them shouting at me. Kieran and Wilson, my coaches who have been absolutely superb and so supportive of where we we taking the club and the way we wanted to play. Also, Billy and Jp previously who were also huge in where the club is now. Next, everyone else who I've met through junior football, the other managers, committees and fans. It really is a special grade with some special people and without doubt a family. I've made some special friends and also fallen out with some people but I hope i leave in the best spirit. Lastly, the players. We have built up a wonderful bunch of boys at Cumbernauld who are not only talented but great boys. I thank them for their efforts and support and cannot wish them more for the future. The club is in great hands with the players they have.
With the reconstruction of the leagues I had a chat with George last week and let him know my circumstances with the effect of whats happened in the past few weeks going forward I wouldn't be able to commit as much as I needed to as manager. After a few days of thought on his advice we both agreed that bringing somebody new in would be the right way forward for the club in the new set up. I think it will be great not just for the club but for the junior grade as a whole with so many ambitious clubs, managers and players. The last few weeks the country has faced will have a massive effect on most people and I have been no different. I hope when this is all over, the clubs will go from strength to strength and thrive in the new setup and I will hopefully see a few of you at some games in the coming years.
All the best,
Andy
Dignity personified well done Mr Frame and good luck

I do not have any knowledge of the workings of the SJFA or the league management set up but if the juniors all move on mass what becomes of any money accrued and sitting in the bank will this be shared by all clubs ??

Someone at Arthurlie really needs to get a hold of who ever these ill informed people are they either did not understand what was said if my reading of Peters posts are correct or they are deliberately misleading their members

Peter, you know the lad that plays for you who wears a sort of bandana type thing on his napper ? Tidy, busy, alert, attacking midfielder type guy ? Driving myself daft trying to remember his name.
Please remind me.
If i was a betting man I would say it was Callum Mc Robbie

It will be really interesting to hear what Mr Ronney has to say and how much of it will be bluster, it is my one sincere hope that the delegates who go tonight put him through the wringer and see through any smoke screen or even veiled threats that he may come up with.I for one hope that the WOSL becomes a reality as there has been no progress on or off the park, seems to many of the blazers are in it for themselves. A thought any of the teams who do move over will they drop the juniors tag and become, eg Pollock FC, Kilbirnie FC, Auchinleck FC, etc.

Aye it's a coincidence. I'm still not convinced smaller clubs would be granted the same dispensation. Talbot probably have one of the biggest squads in the juniors, so why not just get the game played?
Glencairn this season have had a horrendous run of injuries at one point 9 players who would be classified first choice starters yet at no time have asked for any games to be cancelled and because of that fact find themselves in a relegation dog fight, I can understand Talbot exerting their rights to ask for the game to be postponed in this uncertain climate of the Corona virus and the rules are their to be used , so if they have done all the correct procedures then I really dont see what they have done wrong IT IS AFTER ALL THE SCOTTISH CUP 1/4 final and I am sure that every other club would have done the same, but I would like to add the SJFA have really set themselves up if any other team comes calling for a cancellation not to worry as of next year its most unlikely that the powers at the SJFA will have any say in the matter .

A lot will depend on how big our budget is , if we want to attract quality players.
Think Arthurlie will have to break their pay budget as by all accounts he likes to be the highest paid at the club,the one thing is he would play every week as George will never leave him out of the team no matter if he is playing bad or not

I would hazard a guess that any manager worth there salt will have one eye on next year and looking to strengthen. Not rocket science although I am not aware of any particular individual.Why do I find that so very very hard to believe especially if you are who I believe you to be

This is a tremendous statement a lot of people could learn from this well done Glencairn

I understand that but sometimes managers don’t want it public knowledge due to the players being used. I don’t know if it was the case with this but there have been numerous times where it has been the case.Or could possibly be they did not have a permit

A clue to who it may have been great response if you know who it was I’m sure the Glencairn committee would be over the moon for you to come forward and identify the culprit so they could deal with them if you are not willing to stand up and be counted then I’m afraid you are as bad as the person in question

Behave yourself. Yes, the pitch was soft, but what grass pitch isn't soft in mid January ? Considering the rain that has fallen in the past week or two, and the overnight ice which made the streets around the stadium very dodgy at 9am this morning, the park was in remarkably good condition. We're not all fortunate enough to have our local council build us a 3G pitch. Calling it a quagmire is insulting to our hard-working groundsman who is 77 years old, and it just makes you look stupid.
Well said the person who wrote about the pitch has probably nevever helped repair a water logged pitch in his life well done to your hard working grounds man pitch looked perfect at start of game hopefully the glens have turned the corner great to see wee Mckay back he could be the difference

No quandary as I see it Willie Harvey has seen that the second choice keeper is not good enough for the long haul ( My opinion only ) and has went and strengthened the position like any experienced manager would good piece of business the boy Hay is a class act goalkeeper, and Garry may find himself in a dog fight for the gloves when he comes back.
