From the word on the street, you could pay a Kardashian's ransom with the dough that half this 'ex Junior' team are on. In context, losing might sting a little, but thats about it. still think we will cruise this game if we did lose which can happen in any game certainly wouldn't be asking for the managers head we have lost to worse teams than this and endless excuses were made Duffy against Nairn comes to mind anyway my bet tomorrow Clyde -2 goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steady on, they are filled with good HL players with one or two guys that have done not bad in the Senior game. Certainly no "marquee" names. Nowhere near the amount the Brora pay thats for sure.

Adam Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I too would be incredibly surprised if players were getting anywhere near that in signing on fees in the HL. I know some teams have a few quid to chuck about but surely not that much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShawfieldAggro Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 So, its being completely disregarded that businessmen funnelling cash to players might actually be employing them as per a chunky salary, simply to play for his team on a Saturday??? Right you are. If a player can retire from proper football, get an exceptionally paid job and play on with absolutely zero pressure, then fair play. But there's absolutely no.way we could afford any of the decent players we see tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not much, infact the players that left Montrose (might actually just be the one?), left because they were more northernly based. The player they were after from Dundee didn't bother his arse as the travelling was to much. It's not very much, nowhere near what you're thinking anyway. They were getting a wee bit more than what they were at Montrose, there's your ballpark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMFC-1874 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I wouldn't get to hung up on the money side of things. Yes it's fair to say that the club has a bit of money. It's the quality of the players and the ability of the team that Clyde should be concerned about. If Formartine play well and they usually do these days then they will more than match most teams in Div 2. This could be a close game? On the plus side for Clyde our centre half and Capt Craig McKeown is out injured which is a blow. Some of you might remember him? He played for Clyde.

ShawfieldAggro Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Cheeky b*****d. We made him. Had he been.fit, he would have definitely been given a hero's reception. Winning goals at Dens, Firhill, Cappielowe etc will never be forgotten. Add in his Celtic display too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
