Always one of the favorite to get promoted but never quite reach it in recent years, have heard they have lost right mid to whitehill, and released a few players along with losing one to vale,

anyone know who they have retained and signed?

[Alan McKay Tollcross]

They have signed Alan Budge (Defender) and Robbie Simpson (Midfield/Forward) from us. Both of them were good for us the last 3 seasons.


I think they will both do well for Craigroysten.

Don't know a lot about the team but theyre hard working and have one of the best surfaces to play on in the EOS,

He done a job with haddington, anyway the thread wasnt for people to abuse anyone, it was just find out who they had kept and signed

Aye, but oddly enough, they never say what they are achieving that makes their opinion so worth listening to. It's a shame, turns a good site for info and banter into a kiddies playground.

alan budge goin east of scotland you havin a laff? he is utter jobbies

[Jb89]

Ppl should stick to topics instead of the rest of the shite

[Leith Athletic 1887]

Getting back to topic, Craigroyston don't look like they're moving forward with some of their recent signings. Quite a shame as I really enjoyed watching them on a few occasions for a couple of seasons there. They had a really good young side which was a big improvement on the last few years under Alan Whyte.

I think Budge will do fine mate. He has improved a lot in last 3 years. He is fit and very quick which not many central defenders have in their locker. I dont know who else Craigie have signed apart from them.

We are playing them pre season and really looking forward to it. As an amateur side its always good to play side who are playing at a higher level. Peebles are another team we are playing who improved last year and I think they have a few good players coming in for the up coming season.

[dexter1]

Craigroyston have went from an young promising team with pace and skill to an ageing slow team with bags of experience and absolutely no potential if I'm correct none of the players that the coach badger brought to from Bonnyrigg are there I thought they would do really well ive seen them alot in the last 3 years and last year I couldn't believe he difference and now on the sidelines all they have is a guy that abuses his players from the sidelines in George bowmaker terrible appointment from craigy

[Hibs10]

They have lost a lot of good players steve Manson to whitehill,Ryan Mckenzie to vale,Staurt Martin went to Preston but left,Jamie Paterson went to lothian but left,steve sproule is going to preseason with vale and John Lawson and there were a few more so they have lost a lot of young good players.they have kept Kyle hay,he is the only really good player still there from the badger days!

[dexter1]

I thought Kyle had went to the vale with a couple of the others Would be surprised if he hasn't had any better offers than craigy this season as he was defo one of the best when I watched although he was on the bench a few times maybe attitude isn't the best does he go to training regularly ?

[King_Leonidas]

Doubt Kyle will be playing much this year or at all with a bun in the oven due August or September and work!

They should have appointed Fraser Ogilvie when he wanted to leave Lothian to be his own man, Bowmaker is not the man to get Craigroyston promoted

[TINY TEARS]

if craigy need a new managment team they should look no further than the 19's coaches at Leith. we put our heart and soul into every game and even though it might mean we have a wee bubble after a hard defeat it only shows we care. infact the tears might just start when i present the POTY trophies tonight and the memories of that wee Hutchy player sliding the ball into the net come flooding back

at least il have the karaoke to cheer me up in the Iona after it, as long as Caddow isn't there to steal my thunder again

[snowball]

Bowmaker came in when Craigie were struggling, and needed experience in charge. He got rid of a few players at the time, and has got rid of more at the end of the season, and is building his own squad. McKenzie a good player but a timebomb and liable to get sent off at anytime. Manson had a good season 2009/10 but struggled last season although the whole team did. Time will tell if the new squad will be a success or not next season.

He would be better getting rid of himself and taking most of the players with him not sure about Fraser ogilvie although I'm sure he could have brought in a few decent players And dont think work should be a problem for kyle he managed it before and alot of players have children an still manage to fit football in but then again I don't know

[MickeyDaBat]

Does anybody know if they have kept Big Bong and the other tall lad who plays up front??

[Ogilvy's Love Child]
