But the problem being is the signings come from league 1 and league 2 and sometimes certain players cant cope with junior football , and by that I mean no time on the ball getting closed down rapidly and Troon did that brilliantly yesterday , iM no saying they are bad players but for me they won’t do at this level and would be amazed if they were there next season , in fact I will be amazed if 10 of that squad will be at darvel next season on what I’ve seen recently but trust me on this mick will rebuild as second is no use to him , he’s a winner and im pretty sure he will say this season has been a disaster , no silverware for the money spent is shocking 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the budget gets cut he will either leave or you will drop down the league as he is a poor manager and a poor judge of player 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ur entitled to ur opinion , let’s see if he can turn this around , it won’t happen this season unfortunately , I think I know what the club needs so im sure he will know but the problem is if he’s recognised players from other junior teams the problem will be we will have to pay thousands more than any other club in the league 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is he signing players from league 1&2 if they aren’t up to it? Was that the plan for the rebuild from last season? How are you going to get rid of these players? Darvel signed good junior players and they have been benched, loaned out etc ( or in Symes case loaned for a couple of weeks) are Darvel an attractive prospect for players? All he has achieved is blowing a load of cash. The league isn’t over yet, but the players haven’t given him 90 mins since the Aberdeen game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennispaterson Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 The players are human regardless off the cash Darvel won't be the only team to hit a poor run it happens it's how you get back 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanner Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 He's really not a winner if you examine his objectives v's his achievements. They were meant to be polishing off the last few wins to secure the Lowland League by now but shat the bed v Tranent and now we are where we are. You can dismiss the importance of the cups but fans love winning them and his sides have been abysmal in all the non-league competitions since covid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
