  1. I think Beechwood could have done with another set of lights at the centre line area, seems a bit dull in the middle area of the park, although probably costs prohibited this,it might be something to consider in the future.
  2. Were finding out what happens if you don't keep up with your rival teams, down at Beechwood. I'm sure Tucker's experience would tell him, build the spine of a team, a decent keeper, a central midfielder, who would run through a brick wall for you, and a striker that gives you 20 plus goals a season. Course these type of players cost money, and we have been informed that Talbot have spent a lot with floodlights and getting licensed, but so have the rest we compete against. Would someone hazard a guess at the amount of cash Talbot accumulated with televised Scottish Cup games, gate receipts, winners prize money in Junior Cup, money for competing in rounds of big Scottish Cup etc, and we can't even buy a half decent goalkeeper, never mind a top goalscorer. A few fans say don't panic, Tucker will come good, but the guy can only work with what he's got, he's not a magician who can turn raw young boys into seasoned pros this league requires.
  3. I've mentioned on here before, that players being offered substantial money, now outweighs the prestige of playing for Auchinleck Talbot. The whole new pyramid system, has given local businessmen an opportunity to invest serious money at this level , giving them coverage and advertisement if their team becomes successful, and climb the league's like Kelty, Cove, Tranent and Bonnyrigg, all teams Talbot could compete with at Junior level, but are clearly struggling to attract players being offered better money elsewhere. I guess the lure of playing for Talbot and the success and medals that came with it , look to be over, and money will dictate what shirt a player puts on.
  4. What happened to Leishmans understudy for years, who never played, his name escapes me, was it Hewitson,or similar, waiting all those years to play, then Andy goes, would he have been capable and where did he go?
  5. Do you find it strange Jim, how many tried and tested players have been allowed or wanted to leave Talbot over the past couple of seasons. You would think you must have a replacement in mind before a move is sanctioned, you would think just playing for Talbot , with the success and history,should attract players, but it doesn't seem to be happening. Surely Talbot must be able to compete for signings on a par with other teams, or is the money being banded about, causing a completely different scenario for players to think about. It might not be sustainable for teams to keep the money flowing, however it could make it a difficult season for Talbot.
  6. When's Tommy Reilly turning up at Beechwood, come on Tucker get the cheque books cobwebs blown off and get going. As del boy would say "you know it makes sense".
  7. Just like to say thanks for all your hard work bud, enjoyed all your highlights and is clearly something you have a talent for. The video up at Lochee , sticks in the mind, and so well put together. I never understood the flack you took, on this forum, though as you know people are hard to please. All the best A, for new adventures, and wish you well, Talbot TV,no to bad a legacy to be leaving.
  8. Doyle and Palmer, sounds like a law firm, maybe specialised in divorce proceedings,
  9. Just copy the German model, as someone already suggested, you can assume it's probably the best, vorst sprung technik , or something like that
  10. Cheers bud, a player I'd liked to have saw at Beechwood, a couple of players of his talent needed.
  11. Think the question should be, why have they resigned, after just winning the Scottish Cup
  12. That was brand new, before the Cumnock fans past it, to enter the turnstile
