Ayrmail Posted Sunday at 09:51 Share Posted Sunday at 09:51 28 minutes ago, Nelson said: Pretty surprised to see Cammy Smith dropping all the way to League 2 level, though maybe Peterhead are offering more than League 2 wages. Still looks a decent player, but his career does seem to have been in a tailspin for a while. He did look a bit taken aback when someone in the NT shouted “rat” at him. Seems excessive to me - can’t really blame players for looking after themselves. Dave Smith did seem to have some unrealistic ideas of what loyalty in football can or should mean when he took over and the extent to which it’s a 2 way street. He did, after all, sack Mark Kerr 2 months after taking over as chairman. Sure I read he has started a property business with another footballer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super_carson Posted Sunday at 10:17 Share Posted Sunday at 10:17 Is he not from the north east anyway?? Might work out well for him to be part time closer to home. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure being closer to home and less travel is an attraction for some Aberdeenshire players. Similar with Fyvie and Cove. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pawlett stays in Dundee and Cammy in Glasgow but they were all part of the Don's youth system with Jordon Brown. Your new signing Connor McLennan is Peterhead born and bred and was also a young Don. Pity he's not ready to come home yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s some set up but I would assume maybe not even unique to your club. Can’t be easy for the manager, is assume the nights when it’s split it’s still training on the same night or is it all different nights with the manager attending all? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The managers take the Tuesday session in Dundee and Thursday in Aberdeen with the First team coach handling the session in Glasgow. The split sessions are more about fitness than tactics I'm led to believe. It seems to work as the fitness levels for a part time team can compare with many full time teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Teams/Skype etc these days I would guess that’s how he gets them all together for tactics but still that has to be a difficult job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, he was making sure the MkM badge got represented, plus George has a big heed. Dunno about the John Travolta hairdo from grease with McMann though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
