fan of the juniors Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Ooft. Thought Swift was a shoe in after leaving bsc. Brogan hasn’t really set the heather on fire in the juniors recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanark didn’t and don’t have any money . I think he inherited a very poor team at Lanark and I would agree they didn’t do much better there but with no money it is very difficult to entice players to Lanark as managers have also found it hard. I am sure he will give it his best shot and I wish him all the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering their annual income will dwarf that of almost any Junior team (£70,000 from SPFL alone plus their cup revenue and that's without considering gate receipts and sponsorship), we can lose track of how impoverished our own level is.

It is no coincidence that every manager since - Brian Johnstone, John brogan and Paul burns have all struggled to bring success and I fear Colin Slater may head the same way (I hope not) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine, like most clubs, it is expenses paid to players rather than a wage? May be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
