The club are attracting players because they pay stupid money, FACT... if we had financial fair play in junior football yous would be fucked. Your sugar daddy banks rolls yous. I wonder if mick will comment on this that he’s attracting these players? I don’t want to get dragged into a slagging match, I will comment since you asked. I was given a budget at the start of the season and I have worked with that budget, and it’s not the figures that have mentioned. Each player we have brought to the club I have a personal relationship with and worked hard to convince them to come to Darvel, that decision wasn’t solely down money there are other circumstances at times when players make football decisions. That relationship allowed us to get them to sit down and discuss coming Darvel, the current and future project of the club. Other players will also be attracted to club because of the relationship they have with the rest of the management team, it gives you the platform to have the conversation then it’s down to us to sell it. What I will also say is they had better financial offer elsewhere but there many other factors, travelling, family , work and enjoyment that players take into consideration. They aren’t getting paid anywhere near what people think by the sounds of it, and could earn more elsewhere. But at the end of the day we have attracted them to the club, they will all be be great additions to Darvel and junior football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holsten Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Fair play to Darvel for wanting to make there mark in the Juniors with some good signings over the summer.....nothing wrong with spending money if you have it .not be the first ,won't be the last The proof will be in the park next season .There are some teams that will not have had a quarter of the budget that Darvel had this season and are still above them .Rossvale being one I would think . Look forward to seeing Darvel next year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Moomintroll Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Yea we are pleased to announce that Darryl meggat ex Queen’s Park Alloa dundee Ayr United and East Fife where he won every player of the year award and Ross Perry ex rangers oxford Falkirk Brechin Clyde and Dumbarton have agreed to join the club for 2019/2020 season we believe the 2 of them to add to Wullie Robertson , Eddie ferns and Keir Knapp just show the ambition and the standard of player that Mick and his backroom team have attracted to Darvel We believe they are unbelievable signings and look forward to seeing them doon the brae Both players are of the highest pedigree, and are in the best years of their careers. It’s an understatement to say they are massive coups for the club. We have worked really hard to bring both players to the club, and are excited to see what qualities they bring to the club. Welcome to the club guys Good signings DL, fair play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceejayar Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 2 hours ago, iPhone said: Haha, your full of shit, f**k all to do with Mick. Like Jessie J said, “Its all about the money, money, money!” Did not need to lower the tone fella, we were amazed when we discovered that Mick knew as many people in the junior and senior football. Speak to people at the bigger Junior clubs and you will know that players want to play for Mick. Of course they are not playing for nothing but they all have been offered more money to play elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotter Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I think it's a great move for mick going into junior management. With darvel who are willing to spend a few Bob....for me junior football has went backwards and standard has went downhill. Talbot is miles ahead of everyone. Also when u look at the scores in all leagues theres teams been thrashed 7,8 9 10s 12s 14 15 18-0...that tells it's own story. Look at the Scottish cup last 16 this year ..it looked really poor. Clubs are finding it tough to get top quality players in.so are going with lots of young players n probably more amateur ones..in my eyes theres lots of players playing junior .who wouldn't have got a squad strip 4/5 years ago.. unfortunately for clubs players attitudes have totally changed. As they go holiday s right through season now.n take there girlfriend s n granny s out for dinners on training nights...so it's a great time for mick to come in...I personally dont think he can bring all colville boys with him..or they will stay in that league. But if his signing s so far adapt to the juniors they will do really well....good luck mick n darvel..........cheers cotter.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bheaten Castard Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Well done Darvel in appointing an manager outwith the usual lot .Thinking outside the box and a man that seems to have people wanting to play for him .Great signings so far and I am sure will be a force in the game next season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wow-wee Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Managers at all club's have contacts in the game some better than others depending what level they played at as a player the higher the league the better the quality. Some managers have that eye for a player that no one ever thought they would ever be a player example Tommy Sloan he seems to pull them out of a hat? As mick says some of these new players have had better offers else where but signed for darvel most managers will make this statement whether its junior football or senior fans will never know what the true story is but that's football and that's what the forums are all about. As a previous post says it you've got the money to spend then you spend it and to their credit they are also spending it on their park so I will look on with interest and see how it all pans out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for players signed never heard of meginn or the other one, proof will be in the pudding. Will see how the season pans out but by your predictions the rest are looking for 2nd place.

Wile E Coyote Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) Can't see this ending well for Darvel. As for players taking a pay cut, my experience is players will sign elsewhere for an extra fiver even if it costs them an extra tenner in petrol to get there Edited May 12, 2019 by Wile E Coyote 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
