Anyhoo,as I seem to have ruffled yer feathers ( I never thought for a minute that your selections were meant to be taken seriously*) I shall respond to your challenge by posting on Friday morning,a confident fitba treble and a tentative selection that will,hopefully,show its rivals a clean set of hooves at Fontwell on Friday. *snigger* That sounds very much like a challenge! I love those! How about we formalise it with a head to head charity bet? Loser gives to the charity of the winners choice? Unless you're feart?

bobbythompson1 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 All the interest appears to be on the top three teams in the Division at the moment and understandable so.. However I think Stephen Mooney and Stevie Dallas at Greenock Juniors deserve a special wee mention and pat on the back for their players recent results winning 4 games on the bounce. Especially when you consider the problems the club is currently facing off the field it's a credit to the manager and their players that they have continued to focus and work hard to climb to a decent mid table position. Hopefully the club is able to sort out its problems and to continue to have a team representung Greenock in the Junior league for many years to come. Can anyone throw any further light on the current and future situation who us associated with the club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have noticed Greenocks good form (been keeping an eye on all remaining future Candy opponents) and they seem to be hitting the form, i expected from them all season. Can you expand on the problems, i wasnt aware of any goings ons that would hinder the club. Financial:? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santheman Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Gave us two of our hardest games this season. Glad we don't have them in the run in. Some kind of problem with the Council and hire charges???? Hopefully common sense prevails and things get sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No jimbo,I'm not feart.I am though,just a bit concerned and mildly surprised that after your recent wee tiff with a fellow Talbot fan and your suggestion that Long Time Lurker was sending love letters to another Junior poster,you're now issuing a challenge based on your ability to pick winners on a Junior coupon.Are you sure you're ok bud? Of course if you want a head to head bet we can match trebles (including midweek games when they begin) until the end of the season and finish with bonus points for a correct score in the Scottish final and,rather than a charity bet,if you win I will (just before I take a heeder from the Bothwell Brig) send you a copy of the Calm book,by M.A.Smith. Anything of a similar value will be just fine for me in the event that I should triumph in this contest,jimbo. ETA And none of your 1/5 and 1/7 nonsense,jb!

Im sure the chairman would welcome you all with open arms. We need to look after and support all our fellow Junior clubs if we possibly can especially those rhat need help.

Beckanbaur Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Saw the larkhall v roch highlights. And once again a very fortunate penalty against a title rival gives them a massive opportunity to stay in the race. Two in two for larkhall, referees aren't half having their say in games this season with regards to the ghost goal wishaw never got v benburb, roch getting the replay v wishaw and lesmahagow and neilston game being replayed . Horrendous standard of refereeing this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinky Afro Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 When Larkhall got the penalty they were on top and I thought it was just a matter of time before they scored. Perhaps a draw was a good result as they then fell back and we got back in top again? The penalty looked soft but to be honest there wasn't much complaining amongst the fans. I'm not one to buy conspiracy theories anyway although a CRangers fan thinking there is a Larkhall bias might amuse some!! [emoji23] The teams are good enough without the ref's help and whoever can keep scoring will go up. And as for the Wishae replay..... ask Spud about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure the chairman would welcome you all with open arms. We need to look after and support all our fellow Junior clubs if we possibly can especially those rhat need help. You know it makes sense to keep our game alive. Found some more info on the Greenock situation from a few weeks back http://www.greenocktelegraph.co.uk/news/15099557.Greenock_Juniors_chairman_fears_club_will_fold/ Hopefully local folk will get behind them and try and support them in whatever way they can. Equally it would be great if folk go along to watch them in their remaining home games. Just a wee thought given that Greenock Juniors have probably been a feeder club over the years with undoubtedly a lot of the best local boys going to many of the bigger junior clubs in the Ayrshire and Central divisions, is there any chance or possibility that some of these bigger clubs may have a free date during the remaining two months of the season would consider a match against Greenock to help boost their funds and their survival prospects? I guess it's a bit of a long shot and may not be logistically possible with Greenocks own fixture run in but surely worth consideration if its at all possible and would hope there would be at least one or more kind hearted Junior club out there willing to offer a potential date. With Andy Ritchie apparently keen to help the club out, perhaps he would be able to come along and make a wee cameo appearance for Greenock to show the public what he was all about in his legendary Morton days. Just bring Andy on for the free kicks and corners and he could always ask Alan Rough to come along too now that would be special to pay and see for a lot of folk and not just Greenock ones. Ah well maybe just day dreaming now but we also live to dream too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right I should focus more on the positives of Cambuslang's performance today but driving home I couldn't get over the referee so felt the need to vent it on here. Enjoyed the competitiveness over the 3 games this season v wishaw and every game has had a different story to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
