Was impressed with largs yesterday, good team that looked fit and well organised. Think they might give the Wankies a challenge for the title Indeed-Largs really do look like the team at the moment with the power at least to mount a challenge to Clydebank.They have been getting stronger every season over the past few years and if they can win the crunch games especially against Clydebank and not drop points unexpectedly then they will be right up there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether they can keep it up is the question ( also for us ). Although Largs' 13 4 2 record from last 19 league games is impressive 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From speaking to a committee member recently the drop in match day income from visiting fans compared to a few years ago is stark. Some of the clubs are bringing literally nobody. And they are no longer been financed in the way they were a decade ago.

And they are no longer been financed in the way they were a decade ago. Going down might not be the worst for them, especially if Darvel go with them. I can't see any of the Ayrshire clubs being promoted from the First Division so there would be at least some familiar visitors at least, and hardly anyone at First Division level has any money anyway so it should be a lot more competitive. But I hope they stay up regardless. As regards the lack of visiting fans i am in no rush to go back after watching their time wasting and play acting the last time we played them at the end of last season. Someone i know went along as a neutral to watch them play Talbot 4 days later and it was the same. Do not think he will waste his time or money to do that again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These clubs you would expect 50-100 away fans to lots of games. Some clubs at the minute it’s more like 5-10 That's the pyramid m8. Nobody can blame these clubs as they only want to get to the highest they can. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passbackdave Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 On 16/09/2024 at 09:49, BANKIEBILL said: This is a red flag. The recruitment process is seriously flawed and any decent manager must look at it and have serious reservations. The committee also need to look at themselves with that kind of turnover. We've had 3 managers in 21 years - you need to give people time and backing ( not just financial) to build their team ... an average of 6 months is not enough. Aye Bill but the middle manager was a bad choice. Guy was a complete and utter ham shanker. Mon the papers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We encourage Ranger and Celtic fans to come to Holm Park and watch their local team. Often they end up being a Bankies fan only. That's what happened with me when I was a wean. Exactly. My auld man offered me an Ibrox season over the years. Shouldn't have took me to loch park first lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATFC Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 Largs are rightly getting appreciation for their start but Troon have matched them point for point so well done to them too. Bit of a hangover season for Beith looming going by the early signs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotdogTom Posted Monday at 14:28 Share Posted Monday at 14:28 Seen Clybebank a few weeks ago. They look strong. Organised and very good on the ball. Long season ahead but would be great to see them up. Always a good ground to visit on your travels and a warm welcome from the local custodians. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fighting here from this proponent of peace. Moffat is a good young coach and he has got of to a flyer in a tough league. Never visited and not had a good time win or lose there. someone is usually the bad guy in most environments and if it’s the Bankies they will play the part well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
