They were asked by Celtic to play Sunday and agreed, playing more 20’s players than against Linlithgow btw. Would Linlithgow rather Kelty phoned on Monday to say they didn’t have a squad available and leave them in the lurch? Usual ‘Wee team’ mentality from rose fans. Wee team mentality? - lets compare history and honours. Our achievements are through sheer hard work - no silver spoon required 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t know but Kelty have every right to play whoever was available from full and under 20s , as Tam has already said they are an integral part of the setup as well as the first team , so looks like if your good enough your old enough at Kelty 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kefc Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 For clarity on squad size and finances we have a squad as it stands of 17 players on professional contracts thus being paid. Our u20 squad, all players are unpaid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody made Kelty schedule all those games, and obviously doing so would require a lot of squad rotation. I assume that was the intention, because otherwise it would have been stupid. When clubs set up pre-season friendlies they expect higher-level teams may use more fringe players, but clubs at a similar level will field a broadly equivalent team. The Rose v Hibs game is a perfect example; it was a leg-stretch for Hibs but a challenge for Rose. If Rose had wanted to play a lesser opponent last night they'd have arranged to play one. I watch a lot of pre-season friendlies - I'm going to Inverurie Locos v Hall Russell tonight - and this is very much what the expectations are. One possible consequence of playing fringe players is that it might explain some of the heavy challenges, as they were maybe trying to prove a point and get into the thinking for the first team, rather than just trying to get match-sharp. By the end it was a total mis-match and while the attacking practice was useful, it probably wasn't what the Rose expected from the game when they agreed to play it. I didn't hear any more moaning than usual last night and there's some amount of bollocks on this thread about the game. It's not seethe, it's not rage, it's just a bit of surprise and disappointment. If there's a history between the clubs it's news to me and nothing to do with how I felt about the game. That's me done on this. ETA: Kelty are a class club and an example to everyone in non-league football in Scotland. Last night changes that not one iota. Class comments mate! Let's all move on in our respective new ventures this season! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a bit of a gang leaving the boot in at every opportunity. Somethings will never change.

grinderbrokeyourhearts Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 If you forget about 2007 we will forget that your mob made up a fictitious start date for your club and celebrated an 125th anniversary when it still wouldn't be due until the 2020s[emoji23]Oh dear.

Let's just settle on our record in the William Hill Cup as that relatively recent and should be easy for you to count. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
