griffiti on the wall

Joking aside delighted so many fans took up the offer to join the 100 club and get there names on the shirts . Anything that brings a couple of quid in certainly helps KR

Highly unlikely KR 🤣🤣

Candy season tickets still available at last season's prices Adults £70 Concessions £35 ( pensioners & unemployed ) Kids go free so no season ticket needed NB* Does not include enter to cup ties

The centenary kits [emoji7] With the names of over 400 fans and members of the candy 100 club on them . Money men and sugar daddies can't buy that kind of support [emoji39]

I'm not talking them down I'm simply giving an opinion based on what I have saw and if thats uncomplimentary then I'm sorry but it is what it is and while yes they served the club well they were also paid for the privilege so long as it's not personal abuse then fans are entitled to air opinions on performance they may not always be right but they are entitled to do so imo . Ferns on the other hand was simply fantastic and joins Big B as the best players I have saw at the Candy and to lose him was imo a massive blow but the jersey is now available for someone else to come in and make there mark . I do wish all 3 well but they won't play in front of a bigger and more devoted support than at the candy but that's there decision.

Fair points junior guy Like I said I would prefer to focus on the guys that are going wear the jersey next season and not other clubs players

Absolutely [emoji106] Looking forward it Great ground to visit and I enjoyed the craic with the Kilsyth lads at home last season

Loyalty is not a dirty word The fans show loyalty we turn up every week win lose or draw The gaffer has shown loyalty he could have easily chased a quick buck given his successful record at the club and took another job and some players have shown loyalty by staying despite better offers elsewhere and it's not a lack of ambition as they have ambition and that is too make St Rochs one of the best junior sides around or at the least the best ever St Rochs team . So that's the guys I'm interested in and that's the guys I support because together we want the best for the club not ourselves .

Let's be honest better terms on the table from Darvel than what Pollok offered and that was not pennies either . Would have loved him to stay but he wanted the money so cheerio best of luck and ye know what the badge on the front of the shirt will always be more important than the name on the back . It's a short career and Players are entitled to get the most they can out it and I have no issues with that but let's just be here honest if he was that desperate to play for Mick then he could have joined CP last season and forfilled his dream .

Joining peasy was a real Maurice Johnston moment that's what I meant regarding loyalty ..but regardless I wish them well Sent from my FIG-LX1 using Tapatalk

I think your spot on Garngad Neither player is any big loss. I never warmed to McDonald at all but tbf I thought when he played centre midfield in the run in last season he done really well but was far to slow to ever be a centre forward and his goal return in that position confirmed that for me .

Yes 4 seasons

Certainly does m8 but players are not fans so no loyalty to the club just another pay day

What team do you follow Sharpal ?

Is there really more money out there ? The vast majority of teams have re-signed there squads from last season . Not much business bring done with the exception of Darvel but there is even a lot of myth surrounding what they are paying aswell .

Close but it was me and Kieran Martin when he scored at Largs in the Scottish cup [emoji23]

The gaffer and committee will have exhausted every business in the area and we do have sponsorship from many in the area but like I said it's not like an Ayrshire/ Lanarkshire town where many local businesses put back in as those types of establishments just don't exsist

For me Duraglit staying up would be an achievement as the championship is probably the ceiling of were the club can go without decent investment and even at that clubs like Darvel and Arthurlie will start the season with a budget way above anything we could hope for . Yes for 70 odd minutes I must admit I thought our name was on the cup this season lol but Largs just too good in the end .

I genuinely don't know if true but other fans have told me the company next door take nothing to with the club as they want the land to expand there business . There is not a lot of businesses in the area and certainly nothing like what you get in a small Ayrshire town tho there are plans to build the new super Barlinnie prision just over from the ground so that might be an avenue as the authorities may invest in the area but again only my thinking

I'm sure the committee already have . If they wanted to give the club a few Bob to promote that logo then I'm sure nobody would care about the colour

That said however I think the legacy of the centenary season should not be chasing promotion but on securing the club for the foreseeable future and if anyone leaves then there would be a plan and funds to keep the club going . You only need to look at Cambuslang Rangers and Maryhill to see how quickly things can go wrong and how close a club can be to going to the wall if there is no long term planning in place .

Agreed Peter I hope there is spike in season book sales this season as that would really put us on a firm footing along with the 100 club . Probably the biggest step tho is get more sponsors into the club as that's were you make the big money but that's a tough old market to break. Be interesting to see who we sign this season by all accounts the lad Mcstay is decent going by comments on here and happy with the ones who have re-signed but in an ideal world we would supplement them with a bit of quality .

We have played CP the last few seasons ceejayer pre season and friendlies and we never beat them hopefully Mick does not hold the auld Indian sign over us [emoji23]

Cheers m8 Look forward to seeing you guys and beating yeez again [emoji23][emoji23][emoji106]

Very true this season is not even Officially over yet so plenty of business still to be done but I still can't see past Darvel if they hit the ground running
