Viewparker Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 13 hours ago, Jollyboy John said: Still stand by that statement. Beith didn't look good at that point and a lot of the Beith fans agreed, some were even questioning if the managers time was up, particularly after the Lochee game, fans were questioning a lack of heart and motivation. As I said you had the easier run-in, but you got the points on the board which proved to be enough. Had a look and in the last 4 league games Beith scored 21 goals and conceded 2, which maybe says more about the opposition teams being put out. I don’t get this “ easier run in “ crap. I thought every team played the same amount of games against the same teams. The record books don’t show an asterisk against Beiths name indicating they had “ an easy run in”.

You actually believe that another top division team would discuss their current and / or future budget with another team, particularly one in the same prospective division- aye right !!!! It is just another person putting a hook and line out with some info on it and some folk will bite Incredible. If I thought any of my clubs commitee / officials/ players were discussing budgets / wages etc with anybody not attached to or involved with their club, I would ensure they no longer were involved with the club I'm surprised that you are surprised that committee members of the various clubs don't duscuss business such as this. Where good relationships exist, I would exoect these types of discussions to be fairly routine. Not necessarily down to the last penny or specific wages, but in general terms.

Jimmy Gentles Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Buffs fans on here simply cant get over the fact that they fucked up the league last season with a 12 point lead over the eventual winners Best chance of winning a major in years and you fucked it right up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's what computes with you then so be it, I've no interest in trying to change that. All I do know is, Beith were fortunate last season and enjoyed a large slice of luck, in my opinion. See you next season ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they say it is all about opinion I think Beith, Talbot, Pollok and Clydebank as my outsiders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manintheknow Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Went Pollok, Talbot, Beith last year and will stick with it this year. A lot of tosh on here about Beith. They had a brilliant start and finish with a much disrupted winter in between. Pollok have to win this year for wee Tony. I know the squads aren’t finalised but I think Beith are long on defenders and attackers and short a central midfielder that can see a pass. Talbot are a wee bit front to back for my liking and I think they also need bit more in the middle of the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talbot 78 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Think Beith may struggle this year. Partly due to their efforts from last season and upgrade of competing teams. I saw them play a few times and they looked laboured similar to the man utd team just before fergie departed. Talbot have been tweaking their squad so I think we could go either way. Hopefully 1 better than last session. I'll make a bold decision and suggest Cumnock may surprise a few folk this season. Pollok have too much expectation on them to win. Kilbirnie and the Buffs similar vain to Talbot will be a Big Hit or a Big Miss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilbirnie and the Buffs similar vain to Talbot will be a Big Hit or a Big Miss A run in the senior Scottish would be the only way beith would struggle we’ve kept majority of squad which has won the Scottish and league last 3 seasons if we are short anywhere it’s maybe central midfield but plenty time for sir Johnny to sort that out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting thing about Talbot is that they always know when its time to ship out players, even club legends. Talbot renew very well too. Will certainly be a competitive league this season, cant see anybody running away with it. Agree on Cumnock too, a better side than their league position suggested last season, I think they'll be competitive this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beith have signed some good young players to bring the age of the squad down while retaining a good bit of experience. Midfield for me is pretty good and probably one of the few teams that play with two wingers not just midfielders. Also strengthened at the back. So you go ahead and right us off, quite happy to remain the underdogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you go ahead and right us off, quite happy to remain the underdogs I also like Beith's midfield always impressed with Christie and Frize. What I saw last season was my team Buffs and Beith play attacking football and were prepared to concede knowing that they could score 2 or more to win a game with the attacking players they have. Talbot are a well oiled machine who are not spectacular on the eye but get the job done which any junior fan would take with the success they have enjoyed. Pollok are similar to Talbot in being a well oiled machine, who have a match winner in McAnn. Regarding the league I don't know, will be competitive and thrilling to watch. Bring it on.

jinky Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Pollok must come good at some point but need to start well. Hope one of the promoted teams can spring a surprise and for me that could be Cambuslang as they have some quality players that just need to gel and go on a winning streak...hard league to predict with a lot of strong squads.
