Fair enough but do you give predictions for the rest of the fixtures? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glensmad Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share Posted January 3, 2019 Fair enough but do you give predictions for the rest of the fixtures?No, I don't feel I should if I don't predict my own. But I don't ask for predictions, I ask for thoughts. Most people just choose to make predictions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What this means is that the club has improved in the last 6 seasons from a bottom 3 Ayrshire district league side to a top 3 Ayrshire district league side who, as they did 30 years ago, got promoted, only to go straight back down again. There have been great strides made in the last six or seven seasons from a club who struggled to survive for the previous 20 years, but they remain an above average district league side, both in terms of the team and the facilities. What the Legend has done is to hide those efforts by making them a laughing stock amongst many supporter and to have made the club less popular than it would otherwise be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CopaMundials Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I did expect them to do much better with the signings they made and the money they spent early on .Suppose you can buy the best ingredients but if you haven’t got anyone who knows how to mix them all together you’ll struggle to make a decent cake . After the start , staying in the division will be a good result and then you go again next year . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t talk pish we have won a league semis of the west beat 2 super league teams in Scottish this season before unluckily getting knocked out by Largs who are doing no too bad in premiership if that’s no improvement I don’t know what is if we could have turned draws into wins we would be going for promotion this season Im Disappointed this season but I told my dad when he was dying a few years ago I with the help of others would make Darvel a top team so that he could look down on us and be one happy man , I along with them are going nowhere until that happens so whether that happens next season 5 seasons away 10 seasons away it will happen and know what I take all the stick when things don’t go our way and I will be more than happy when it does to see the comments 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
