daleboy1969 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Very long deal deal for a player who historicaly last no more than half a season. Didn't really get going at Armadale. Seldom at training. Part of the famous nine nothing team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst the players are to blame should some of the blame not be directed at the old manager? He brought them to your club 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoYeTalkinTae Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Like most other players Kieran only missed training when working. Also part of the derby winning team at Bathgate Whitburn and for a player that has being at Armadale for a few years now the squad was the best group since I have been there played well most games just needed a striker to finish chances. How many games will it take for Armadale to lose before you chuck it again? Usual from the usual 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daleboys forever Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Aye top squad this season ( when they could be bothered ) 3 wins all season shows that .and several total hammerings on the way .hendos over the hill squad look like brazilians com paired to this lot . Feel for the man tasked with sorting this shower out . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoYeTalkinTae Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Other than the Kennoway game what other hammerings? If you've been away for a while how can you judge a game? Basically a brand new squad put together at begin of season that never got the results most performances merited and lack of confidence in squad not helped by you or committee members. You should get yourself down to training you must be a player 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daleman Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 Time to get behind the team and try and salvage whats left of the season for whatever reason mistakes have been made and the progress the club was makeing has stalled in recent years but the only way that will change is with working harder both on and off the pitch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vollyman Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) Your comments about the committee are rubbish the committee work hard yes all is not as it should be the reason being the lack of committee members and the fact that many of the committee are over 70 years of age. Obviously you have not seen the work done to upgrade the dressing rooms by the few younger members of committee. These are the real supporters of the club who raise funds by running bingo nights race nights standing out 6 hours a week in all kinds of weather selling the club's lottery, they keep the club going but unfortunately part of the job is taking criticism from guys like you who is obviously a member of the all mouth and no action brigade Edited February 9, 2017 by Vollyman 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoYeTalkinTae Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Your spot on the younger members of the committee keep the club running great guys the older ones are a shambles think they need to realise Colin stein and joe baker don't play with Armadale anymore 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falside Jag Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 From the outside looking in it appears Armadale are at a serious crossroads. I wonder whether relegation at this point wouldn't be the worst thing to happen although I sincerely hope that they manage to stay up - the derbies are brilliant. It might give you an opportunity to completely overhaul things with little pressure on the side. I think you would come back up pretty quickly as well. I feel that the poor league form and the pressure that that brings is putting a lot of pressure on a committee that are struggling to reform themselves at the moment. Armadale do a lot of things well - lottery for one thing. Maybe there a few who are a bit long in the tooth but these guys have put a lot of time and effort in over the years because they love their club so you can't ignore that. You need to strike a balance though with new blood coming in and that's not easy to do. Young people these days seem far less likely to get involved at that level at their local Junior clubs - there's not the same social aspect that went hand in hand with the Junior game from days gone by. I keep hearing there is a lot of unrest within the playing squad as well but you still have some decent players there. Anyway, I genuinely hope things turn round for Armadale soon (or at least soon after the next game at The Volley between the two Thistle's) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daleman Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 The more helpers the better for any team regardless of age. The best option would be to move to new facilities were you dont need to keep on top of things like dressing rooms putting nets up etc and it would free up time plus get the community of Armadale together and attract better players with better facilities. The history of the team will always be there but times change and the club needs to keep up. As a former member of youth football in Armadale there is a divide between the juniors and the youth teams not pulling in the same direction which would benfit both going forward 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's to say the juniors couldn't still get involved or any other groups ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daleboys forever Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Great fighting performance from the dale today .tottally outplayed ARNISTON in the first half ,could have been three goals up by the break .succured in the second half when the ref sent off the dale keeper for showing two fingers to one of junior footballs vilest rodents who had abused the keeper for ten minutes previous . Keep playing like this and these players will undo the early season non tryers . Well played dale 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
