For a team that don't splash the cash, Leishman on peanuts I am assuming? Craig Trusdale there for the love of the team? Yes I accept JB will out spend you however I still think it is safe to assume you have one of the biggest budgets in the league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a lot of players at this level rely on their fitba wage to cover their mortgage. That would be a very dangerous thing to rely on, given the length of contracts and risk of injury. Perhaps with Big Leish having played in front of big crowds at Talbot, then going to Darvel and playing in front of a man and his dug some weeks (Gartcairn v Darvel for example, must have been rocking), the appeal of playing infront of a decent fan base for his final few seasons probably was a big pull. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clydebank boss Gordon Moffat admits the supporters sold new signing Andy Leishman on a move to Holm Park. The goalkeeper is a familiar face across the West of Scotland Football League having starred for the likes of Auchinleck Talbot and Darvel in recent seasons, winning a cup double with Darvel last season to go alongside the 27 winners medals he picked up in his time with Talbot.

Shanner Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 There's a geeky Logan's Run joke somewhere in there about not reaching 30 (medals) but sadly I'm not clever enough to make it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In answer to the previous point, of course players won't (or shouldn't) be relying on football salary to pay their mortgage; I used this merely as an lazy point to make. It's difficult for a Talbot man to have a go at Andy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be soo envious of teams like Auchinleck, Pollok, Irvine Meadow, Troon etc...with good quality grounds and grass park. That is why you celebrate the 'we beat talbot' cup so much, however when it matters they come out on top. I feel your pain. Failing to compete in a league that is clearly below you and your rightful place in the SPFL despite only being formed in 2003 and lack any history. Effectively a more establish St Cadocs. Gartcairn at least have their own ground. All those teams mentioned will use a community facility for training what they are designed for not matches. For me there is no sense of belonging where ground sharing takes place. I understand it as team don't want to buy their own ground and would rather throw money at players than setting down roots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
