Ihp Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I heard the same rumours, seems like a great bit of business by Arthurlie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satori. Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I would hope Arthurlie as a club knew nothing about it but find it hard to believe the new manager wouldn't have known. Surely he shouldn't have been signed until the outcome of any disciplinary action was known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was common knowledge in the local football circles that a ban for Scott was expected after the going on at Larkhall ammies so I’m pretty sure Sinky would’ve known about it. Maybe he thought it was a risk worth taking, he did have scott at Larkhall for a number of seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigJasper Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 Not stirring. A former player of ours has been banned from football only a couple of weeks after rejoining the junior ranks. Would have posted it in the Thistle thread but it doesn’t affect us any longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larky9 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 It’s not my place to speculate on the exact events but there is an extensive thread on the Amateurs forum about the Amateur team and their ultimate demiseThey are playing under the new name Motherwell Thistle can't remember what league they are and they still have nearly all the same players,all I can say is good luck too them and hopefully their conduct on and off the park is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ped Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Does the ban extend to junior football as a ex team mate of mine got a 6 month ban during him amateur days but was allowed to play with Yoker so mabye that’s the reason he’s went junior this season and not joined another amateur team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott never did anything wrong when he played for larkhall juniors I have watched them many times when he was playing for the thistle and was a big miss when he left.

I watched them many times and I am pretty sure Hugh kelly and Ryan innes got sent off more times than the boy Nichol... the boy nichol is a very good player was sad to see him leave the thistle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his discipline was as bad as some are making out, why would Sinclair take him to Arthurlie? I haven't seen the boy play so i cant say too much about him . I would reckon the Arthurlie committee would need to have a word with Sinclair to find out what he knew about any impending long term ban facing this player.
