tamthebam Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I've read Ross Pilcher's match report on the Evening News website- Whitehill's keeper was sent off and their right back went in goal and saved a penalty- three penalties and three red cards; almost reminiscent of a certain game at Ainslie Park at the start of the year...

Not to nit pick but he had been shifted to right midfield just before he ended up going in goal. Can't sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newcastle broon Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Not sure what all the fuss is aboot. The pyramid was set up to find yer level. Unfortunately we peaked in its 1st season. Lets face up to it we're always gonnae be a mid table to bottom team along wi several others. Certain clubs have far bigger resources than others to be able to compete at this level and that's by no means a dig at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure there's too many- EK and spartans definitely but can't imagine there's many others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These newer clubs that have came in are well run from top to bottom. Not that I'm saying ww aren't well run,just competing wise personally think we among others are and will be left behind. That top 6 will only get stronger imo. Hopefully be proved wrong but the LL is finally taking shape ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully be proved wrong but the LL is finally taking shape ?Can't have been many teams paying over a grand and a half for someone like macgregor then giving the likes of Hutchie the best part of two grand for other players could there? Whitehill have the money but have spent it poorly- as have other teams. Think the guy at threave will be on a decent wage and they've no won a game yet! I'd also add that selkirk have promised the money and not actually spent it or handed it over yet if the rumours are true! Could be the way for more teams to go- spend what you don't have. It got Hearts a couple of scottish cups..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the guy you signed from Bo'ness- for £1600. Public knowledge in the juniors what the asking price was for the lad. You were the ones who paid it.

magoo Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Ww have never been a wealthy club.there success has been thro a hard working loyal committees and a group off players in the 90s early 2000 that,at non league level were near untouchable...In the 90s they did pay decent bounus but that was self financed from Scottish Qualifying success and the fact apart from gala and spartans the rest were paying very little...there's no financial big guns behind whitehill,whilst I stated there not wealthy they have been run very well....In the new age off lowland league whitehill will be no where near the finances off the top six and everyone around whitehill is well aware off that fact.we were spoilt with success in the 80s 90s and early 2000s...getting our heads round mid table is where we are at.this coupled up with imo some poor signings over the last 3 years leads us to where we are in the lowland standings.....If whitehill never won another trophy or even a game in there remaining history we would still have enough in our locker to say it's been a hell off a journey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played against the great whitehill team of the mid 90s and know what the success was built on. However, I do know that they have spent a bit this year, albeit probably less than some in the top six but definitely more than some in the top six. You alluded to the fact that there's been some poor signings and that's why I said you've wasted money when it's at a premium now. As an old timer with a bit of tradition about me id much prefer to see the likes of welfare pushing at the top of the league but times have changed- I just don't think it's as simple as money being the issue. Coaching, proper recruitment ( in terms of type of player and their character) can lead to success. Not all players want to go to the team paying the biggest bucks.
