jd_mo Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 If I was a Peterhead fan I'd be incredibly proud of my manager having read his quotes there in the Evening Express. The (slight) cynic in me thinks it would be very easy for a manager to give a resounding two fingers up to the whole idea and the ethos surrounding it when you're odds on favourites to get promoted out of L2 anyway. But joking aside, it's reassuring to read such a positive report. Still had no reply from Montrose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIT THE CHANNEL Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Reply for the club, in a nutshell: Raith Rovers plan to discuss this at thier next board meeting. Chairman Allan Young is personally opposed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blootoon87 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 More from Jim McInally - https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/sport/football/scottish-football/peterhead-boss-slams-colts-idea-from-old-firm-clubs-he-says-are-out-to-bully-way-in/ What a big bloody dreamboat Jim is. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post craigkillie Posted January 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2018 That from McInally is one of the best managerial interviews I've ever read. He goes in two footed, then gets back up and stamps on his opponent, then douses him with petrol and sets him alight. 35 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peternapper Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Spoiler Never had any doubt about Jims feelings on this, have spoken to him a number of times since they started infiltrating the Challenge Cup with Colt teams as we agreed then it was only leading to gaining league places & now they are trying it on. Jim says it as he see,s it & well done to him for sticking by his principles. He has summed the whole thing up spot on. I also had a reply from the club this morning to a e-mail I sent asking about their position regarding this. Got a reasonable reply which being a personal mail was asked not to forward on which I will respect but basically the club say they have not had any formal meetings or documents to discuss at this point. It would seem typical of the blazers in Glasgow that they come up with a master plan for something then will not provide detailed information on how & when it should be carried out. It would appear rather than chase after a manger to run the national team they should look to replace the Reagan/Doncaster team that have done nothing for the game during their time in charge. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David W Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Actively supporting Clyde one weekend, ripping into this nonsense days later. He's gone up massively in my estimations. Given these things come in threes, hopefully he'll forget to put McAllister on the bus on Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always taken what is reported in the media with a very large pinch of salt (are you listening Ivo?) Cowden are on record as opposing a previous SPFL submission re the introduction of colts teams to the league. I would personally move Cowden to Column 2 on Burnsie's list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonglum25 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Classic quote from Jim McInally which basically says everything that these clowns do not understand. “As much as people support Celtic and Rangers, the people who support Peterhead, Montrose, Clyde, Elgin and others support their team every bit as much and every bit as passionately as Celtic and Rangers supporters support their team. “It really annoys me that Scottish football can’t see through this – for me this should have been blown out without even getting this far.” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck you were using the Sportsound team as backing. no, I wasn't. my reasoning on reserve teams was also pretty much exactly the same as Jim McI's. (SHOW YOUR WORKING, THERE'S NO GUARANTEE RESERVE TEAMS WILL WORK ANY MORE THAN COLTS) fortunately his words carry much more traction that mine as has been seen in the last couple of pages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karpaty Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) Clyde are going to send out a statement although they haven’t mentioned when exactly. It’ll likely be the “wait and see the formal proposal” line but I’ll be absolutely mortified and raging if there are any positive vibes coming from it. Our fans group poll is currently 66/2 against the idea and our email to the chairman will be sent on Monday.

Couldn't make it up. I don't think Annan (or many others) would oppose Rangers or Celtic putting a B team in the South of Scotland league, or any other league at that level, with the same restrictions that currently apply to the Annan and Stranraer teams at that level (no promotion etc). Jumping the queue and entering the fourth tier, screwing up the organised structure of the league in the process, is a bit different. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not want the Colt team to join the SPFL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivo den Bieman Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 IIRC Annan colts went in with the full agreement of the clubs in the league, too, and there is a long history of reserve teams / colt teams playing in SoSFL. There's no comparison between the two cases. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't understand why clubs need to wait for "formal proposals".For me it's a matter of principle and clubs should be able to make their opinions known "on principle" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
