I suppose they have the safety net of no-one really caring, so they can change it again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Taranbino Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 It's now staying with Edusport for the coming season I believe so it's as you were. I got a telling off by the club for posting on here so I'll respect their wishes and not post anymore about the ins and outs of the club business on this forum 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are we to say that if they can be self sustainable with a model that doesn't need a support base or firm location, they shouldn't be allowed in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Sally Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) Anyone know how many members this OurFootballClub thing has? I read somewhere online that they had 700 members but it must be getting close to renewal time soon; how many people are actually going to renew now that the novelty has worn off?

Baxter's Nutmeg Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 I see from Twitter that Edusport have made 9 new signings! I take it that the “students” won’t have a look in this season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parsforlife Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I see from Twitter that Edusport have made 9 new signings! I take it that the “students” won’t have a look in this season? Someone(Scott McLaughlin?) said they had signed for them and the idea this year is that they're signing a group of guys who won't be 'students' so that the young French men with daft ideas and rich parents(that might not have been his phrasing tbf ...) would need to earn the right to be in the 1st team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is early season Edu use a lot of local players until the academic term starts, or am I mistaken? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWeatherFan Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 With the Glasgow United idea, would they not be moving away from the original model anyway. I'm sure the Edusport business will continue independently but using French students isn't going to get the football club into the Premiership by 2025 or whatever it was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmontheloknow Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 They've used various Scots before, though not in huge numbers I guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Grimm Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Team was a lot more settled last year with, 2 or 3 new Frenchmen. 5 or 6 French boys from the past that have stayed in Scotland and the rest made up of Scottish players. Looks the same today as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Squad emphasis has also shifted each season. First SOSL campaign was almost entirely the French lads and seemed to cobble through August and holidays with local trialists etc. Second SOSL campaign they'd some signed Scots especially for those periods. Last season debuting in LL notable core of Scots throughout including some youth pros. Perhaps more of those this campaign. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnie_man Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 How are Edusport’s plans for world domination going, how many of their subscribers renewed?

I don’t see Blackburn who left the second tier of junior football ever getting anywhere near the EOS top league in my lifetime so what is your point? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve no idea and frankly have no interest, that’s their business. Forgot you refuse to ever see others point of view and don’t have time to waste conversing with someone that can dish it out but don’t like it back. No doubt you will comeback with yet another arrogant and condescending reply but I will just leave it at that. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
