minesalager Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 If the weather stays mild ... it will be a very busy football day in Hurlford, with two big Am.Cup ties just down the road at Richardson park (1400) ... we all remember the Shortlees - Thistle game last summer which drew an absolute monster crowd.Aye seen a few monsters that night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackie Gold Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 He's not the best manager in Junior football. Also remember he has had a financial backing many other mangers could only dream about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also remember he has had a financial backing many other mangers could only dream about.I would say Sloan the best but don’t kid folk on he hasn’t got the financial backing and before you say the players play for the jersey well many years ago yes they did but now every teams players play for the cash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbaxters Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I have never doubted Mr Henderson's ability but it is a skewed situation he has been in at Hurlford. Being bankrolled takes the edge off of his achievements but there's no doubt he knows the grade inside out and knows how to build and maintain a top side. Not the best in Junior football though. We all know who that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not least community involvement and fundraising which has been persistently incredible, especially given the socio-economic state of Auchinleck. To compare the two is just daft.

To compare the two is just daft.No don’t get me wrong I know the talbot has a great support across east Ayrshire and they do a lot of fundraising didn’t say they had a sugar daddy but I still say the players well most play for the money and not the jersey at most teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbaxters Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Just now, FlyHigh said: No don’t get me wrong I know the talbot has a great support across east Ayrshire and they do a lot of fundraising didn’t say they had a sugar daddy but I still say the players well most play for the money and not the jersey at most teams Players will play for money but I think fairly high up on a list of decision making reasons when given the option to play at Talbot, will be the fact that success is likely with the best club in the grade. I also believe that, once there, players see just how wide reaching and special the club is. This brings with it a desire to play for that club. That's not exclusive to Talbot but it does exist there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
