Darvel vs Falkirk - 5th round


Recommended Posts

OK, it's halftime, so why don't the Beeb offer a wee hint of journalistic balance here?

Don't they know that a big chunk of the watching fitba public have no time for these "village projects" and don't buy the fairytale pish.

Don't they realise that most folk find the Darvel manager's team talk completely cringe worthy?

I don't have anything against wee Faddy, but wtf is he on about ... the pyramid needs to be changed to help these progressive teams ... really?

Tbf it is ridiculous 3 leagues share 1 promotion place to Lowland - despite it having expanded to let 3x B teams in - and 2 leagues share 1 playoff place to SPFL2.

That said Darvel are atypical - in terms of fanbase/facilities/finances/etc. - to rivals like Spartans, Tranent, Linlithgow, Auchinleck, Clydebank, Pollok, Buckie, Fraserburgh, etc.

Aye, fair enough ... in my head I was hearing that the pyramid needs changing to assist the heavily subsidised village projects ...

For years I've been trying to put my finger on why he's so irritating for me. I think a big part of it is that there is no real warmth or humour in his tone.

He sounds as if he's trying to make anything that happens sound dramatic but fails miserably.

A lot has been rightly pointed out that darvel are basically a league 1 side in budget but it doesn’t look like much has been put into the back line and the ease Falkirk were able to create one on ones to get their goals shows that.    They are reasonable middle to front but chucking money at it without creating an all round side will not result in too much success
