foreverarover Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Broadwood rapidly becoming a shit house , broken seats not being replaced , rubbish from previous games still lying about .Nothing against either Colts or Clyde have been to see both .Sometimes think that people are not interested in enough numbers to make things viable for these teams to survive in the long term .Ground sharing at Guys Meadow could indeed benefit both but again it would require major investment and joined up thinking .I personally would pass on Broadwood and let NLC take it on the chin . Agree Wholeheartedly. Seats broken everywhere and always,litter in the aisles. But surely it's up to NLC to clean it ? Rugby seems to be new love for NLC just now.

Well,unless you happen to be a Tolkien fan,I'm pretty sure that your reference to the Orcs and your regret that the 'festering corpse'...some real tolerance right there...survived for another year was directed at folk associated with Glasgow Rangers,folk who no doubt hold different opinions to yours. And of course,so far,it's only you who has used the word 'religion'. my reference regarding festering corpse had and has nothing to do with 50000 guys and gals who turn up every other week to support their heroes it related to the amoral corporate entity that showed no shame or willingness to accept that it's financial practices were beyond acceptable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lokloyal Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Prefer a good grass surface to Astro at the moment until it equates but it's getting closer I believe. On the original topic I don't think through all the posts I have actually had a response from anyone on Rob Roy? Any update at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live TV and flexible kick off times has had an undoubted negative impact on junior clubs too .Who knows how long the Roy will be with us I believe the Great Wall of China was started and finished quicker .There is also the as yet not fully substantiated claims coming from the U S of A that there is a link between the artificial surfaces and cancer ,but we have to remember they also elected Trump and want to build a big wall as well - perhaps they should speak with the Roys architect, so we will have to watch this space for developments there.I have been reviled and maligned in other posts as I cannot stand the "plastic " .I have never once said that it was wrong just not for me simply a choice thing ......I do understand why clubs are going down this path , i accept that for some it has been a raging success but the income generation thing , which is essential for upkeep and eventual replacement , will not be the cash cow it was .Within easy commuting from my house I have Broadwood , Abronhill , Ravenswood , Airdrie Fc , Airdrie sports center , Glasgow ,falkirk , Croy , Kilsyth ,Larbert to name but a few all with competing plastic pitches .Even spoke with the guy at Alloa about the installation maintenance and replacement costs we would all need benefactors like Largs Thistle to survive this .I would love to see Junior football not only survive but grow but not at any cost The link is not plastic pitches and cancer, the link is the rubber pellets and cancer. A lot of the rubber pellets come from old car tires. In the US, the composition is slightly different and includes several known carcinogenics. In the UK(And EU I think) the carcinogenic elements are banned from use for that purpose so it isn't an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh dear Kenny,you really are going all out to consolidate your forum simpleton status. Now give your forehead a wee rest from the keyboard then come back with something that's as close as you can get to a sensible contribution,as I'm pretty sure that the angel/snowflakes that you seem so fond of really only exist in that mixed-up wee heid of yours. Interesting, though hardly surprising,is that the bit in bold seems to confirm that you're one of the guys who believes that their admission money entitles them to give out whatever kind of abuse they imagine is merited to players and officials alike. Probably just coincidence but this behaviour is much less in evidence in the Amateur game where there's no barrier between the players and punters.Wonder why that is,k?

foreverarover Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 newton was mistaken .perhaps eventually i will have to watch a team in a grass only league What an absolute beautiful day for football. Pitty I couldn't watch a cracking game at Guymuir due to postponement. I'll watch the Colts on that plastic thingymagig pitch instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
