newcastle broon Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I'd suggest the big spenders would be ek and spartans with gretna and colts near the top. Selkirk obv spent/promised a bit to folk and believe stirling pay their non students well ( Obv save money on the others!). City are a funny one because I can't see where the money comes from but they must be spending money to be where they are. Star prob won't be on much I'd imagine but probably deserve to be after being the only team to finish top 4 first two seasons. City have a rare hidden gem not too far from the city centre that hardly anyone goes to before/after games and by reading their programmes seem to be doing quite well sponsorship wise and good luck to them.

tamthebam Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 we were also lucky that someone was throwing out a sofa in Restalrig and we found some shekels by raking down the back of it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surely not! Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Think we all know who ye meant but......Still don't know what it's got to do with last night's result or the signing of players. That's for the backroom staff to deal wi is it no ? Can you enlighten me please ? I meant that if ww are recognising that they may indeed be a mid to low end side, why are the shouts so demanding of winning every game by a handsome margin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's for the backroom staff to deal wi is it no ? Can you enlighten me please ? We all know who.... but apparently 'you know who' was behind the splurging of shekels on Connor McGregor as the club has been looking for a new treasurer since last summer, because 'you know who' has as much financial sense as an anchovy. Apparently 'you know who' in an effort to motivate the player to sign even told him there wouldn't be a club much longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magoo Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I meant that if ww are recognising that they may indeed be a mid to low end side, why are the shouts so demanding of winning every game by a handsome margin so at every level off football anyone in a position mid to low level there's no allowence on Saturdays for anger/encouragement/hope/expectation/dismay.....

surely not! Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 so at every level off football anyone in a position mid to low level there's no allowence on Saturdays for anger/encouragement/hope/expectation/dismay..... Far from it. I think the reason it happens at Rosewell is because they know they've spent some money and get more frustrated than others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mantis Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Far from it. I think the reason it happens at Rosewell is because they know they've spent some money and get more frustrated than others I don't agree with that. Apart from 'you know who' (let's just say Romanov in future) who abuses players, the fans generally know nothing about the finances, they can hardly even turn up for an AGM. The reason some of these fans don't tolerate failure is because for a village of that size, they've always punched above their weight and they've been spoiled by success. Now other clubs in the LL have upped their game and WW are being left behind. They must have the smallest committee in the LL and I don't just mean wee Renwick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hob-nob-bobby Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Speaking about paying players, I wonder how much the Ed Uni players who beat WW 5-0 get paid?... Nothing I suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim O'Grady Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 indeed that's why I use the word GUESS we won't be at the top six spending levels....surely was quoting figures to the nearest pounds early on..I've hardly made any dramatic statements about any clubs spending...there's words to describe you...but they have all been stated before "& the fact that Gala & Spartans..." Doesn't sound like a guess? I guess. Grimbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The expectations from the shouts remain the same despite this line that welfare can't compete. I feel that He knows you should be able to compete based on the money He sanctioned.

theref Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Well said WW signed an entire team some good some average some not so good who signed them ? end of day results dictate what happens next but the signs are not too good just now With so many new players results will be up and down did anyone really expect more ? Surely its a building exercise for next season keep those that have performed well to form the core of the team for next season and move the rest on who have not bringing in some more ? WW have decent players and a decent 11 but I do not think they have a strong squad to cover when players are missing and it would appear they have no forwards anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
