socexp Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Agree with last post on adl promotion race.But cant rule out kello who are well and truly in the shake up now ..Awr maybe steadied ship aftr their wobble of few defeats..Whitletts result yest a big blow As when going for promotion Home games like yest need 3 points ...Whitletts and kello double header Will sort out a lot If either team wins both it will discount the other And if couple of draws or if they win 1 game each that obv plays into darvel and awr ...For me darvel to win league Cos of the way the grind out results ...Testament to paddy ....And for what hes been thru Im rooting for darvel for at least promotion...And for league in general Good to see how it will unfold ...

fanofthejuniors Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I agree could be a very interesting couple of weeks in the ADL I suopose kello r Defo in the mix not sure of their remaining fixtures apart from whittlets twice. I think whittlets have the hardest run in which made me rule them out. But u never no in the juniors especially with mid week games not far away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanofthejuniors Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Also meant to add be great to see darvel go up for paddy.

Teofilio Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I would guess people's opinions of 'big spending' includes wages and signing on fees. Not just whether you have bought players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanofthejuniors Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Exactly what I was referring to for example Cameron Scottish cup winning captain won't be playing for nothing at whittlets And likewise up until Christmas Liam caddis wouldn't have been playing for free at the winton was just a observation that some clubs have a higher budgets than others.

Ayr Victoria Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Not good enough for Vic's yesterday. Wasn't at the match as I was working but from what the boys told me we didn't start trying until it was too late. Davie we do give out high wages especially for the ADL. Cameron and Balfour are the two highest at the club. Super 1st teams probably don't give their players what they two get. Need to win all our remaining games now to go up. League looks like it's Darvel's to lose now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darvel Pie Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Welcome back Lord Lucan [emoji12]For WV to win all the remaining games is a huge task with Kello home and away and AWR at home.The only disadvantage for Darvel is you all have points in the bag while we fall behind further soon with cup games needed played Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teofilio Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Johny Lessmoney paid out on wages from when u was there And?? That point has zero relevance mate. Whitletts are entitled to pay players what they want. They have the money as their committee work their socks off to raise funds so credit to them. But please stop the tiresome rhetoric that you aren't spending far more money than almost every other team in the division and no doubt some in the division above also. No ones buying it.

Ayr Victoria Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Johnnie it would seem Davie and his coaching staff are making excuses about the lack of consistency in results since End of October time. The committee have backed them 100% making the funds available to gain promotion. This talk of we don't spend money on wages is bollocks and Davie knows it.Whitletts should be winning this league at a canter with the hard working committee and financial resources we've got but we're failing badly. Personally I don't think Neil and Jamie are up to the challenge anymore but that's my own opinion. If we don't gain promotion then they have failed the clubs goals for the season.

Darvel legend Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 We just play away and hopefully be competitive every week its hard on our cow field wae piss poor players but we keep going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanofthejuniors Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I think it's clear teams such as winton and dare I say it whittlets,have larger budgets which allows them to attract better players than the lights of Lugar murkirk Saltcoats. I dont c y Astra is maken a big deal of it as it shows they have a hard working committee who are maken funds avilable for the management. Or as ayr Victoria pointed out it could be seen as a failure on the management team if promotion is not secured? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
