AyrshireBeanCoonter Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 Of course players should be asked! It's not the committee who play on a Saturday! What use is it if the committee agree to travel to Arran and the players don't? 99% of players do not have a clue what goes on behind the scenes and how a club is run. They just turn up when asked. Of course players are going to say yes, it's an away day for them! It's the committee that have to think about raising the cash to travel, booking ferries etc...the committee are there to make those decisions, not players, in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree players don't know the majority of the goings on behind the scenes but in this particular instance i think it needs run past them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The chassis Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 A reckon it's the players if most clubs that would raise the cash to travel as it's mostly them that supports there teams functions,a think it should be a team descision anyway for what it worth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannyhead91 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I don't think people can judge this on money. The ferry costs £7.50 per person for a return and we would have transport sorted for teams to get to the pitch on Arran. I might be wrong but I think an extra £7.50 for 1 away game a year isn't too much to ask. On another note do people think there are teams around North Ayrshire that would be willing to give some Arran boys a trial so they could travel away and play for a team on Saturdays? Obviously the difficulty is that these boys wouldn't be able to train midweek with the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The chassis Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 There will be teams out there who have players who don't train because of work or other stuff but walks straight into the team because there good,so if you can only travel in Saturday but a right decent player then some team will take you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be worth sticking together as a team and see how the leagues pan out as due to odd numbers in the league and teams on cup runs there's potential for a friendly every other week. And if this works out well re-apply next year and maybe prove that it's possible if no hiccups occur during said friendlys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyrshireBeanCoonter Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 Arran would the WASAFA league be any interest to you? Maybe a chance of getting into that league. Not sure about Sunday ferry times though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about Sunday ferry times though....Wasafa is becoming a bit of a shambles anyway mate. Make up there rules as they go along and teams pull out on matchday with not enough players. No good that if the Arran team are already on a ferry lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
