Cumbo Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 The trees at the golf course end don't allow much sun through them. 80% of the park was playable but the goals at that end were frozen solid I'm a bit surprised by that as the pitch at Lochee United was perfectly fine today. Has it been that much colder in Perth? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has it been that much colder in Perth? How far is Dundee away from Perth? Haddington is 9 miles from Ormiston (a lot less than above) Haddington on but Ormiston off. My back garden is 20 yards away from my front garden, once you negotiate a bad turning round the side of the house. my back garden was unplayable but I could do slide tackles without any ice burns in the front garden. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forrie_1 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Went along and took in crossgates v whitehill yesterday, it was pretty decent game. the away team having some good chances unfortunately not clinical in front of goal, crossgates took their chances at the right time I felt difference with archie campbell up top and a player I enjoyed seeing in a shire top few years ago Mickey Dunlop commanding at the back certainly helped yesterday. where whitehill are going is abit of a shock to me (probs should of checked the league table first lol) , although they played some decent football yesterday they need a striker to stick the ball in the net. lastly thought chris templeton has signed for crossgates he wasn't involved ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead they've come roaring back like a hungry lion in a chop house and now within 1pt of safety position. Binning the manager and the players he signed in the Summer and replacing said footballers with the likes of Jon Tully may have more to do with it! Understand they also released three players during the week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Templeman has certainly played 4 or 5 games from what I've see. Not sure if he's there every week though? Campbell will score goals and win games for Crossgates. Doing no bad with Shaq on the bench too! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I let you win 1-0 cause when I looked at your response there wasn't much I could argue about. Then when you didn't come back on MK, I revised to 1-1. Purely on HoB & Jeanfield you have lost it! You cannot say in last 4 years that Burgh have been better than HoB. If you do, shake out of it! We got relegated 16-17 HoB didn't. Spent 1 yr in a lower division then last year HoB were 15-20 mins away from winning our conference. We were close to them as both W1 D1 L1 against each other, but we weren't in with chance of league. Last week got hammered 3-0. Less of a difference is Jeanfield but remember they stayed in Super League at end of 2016-17, when we got relegated. Last season they'd improved a lot since 2016-17 where we improved. Two weeks ago we got hammered 6-3. Balance of probabilities is that currently both are better than us! If you think otherwise, just now, you need to get your tinted specks off! A different question is, should we be bigger/better than both clubs? My answer is, most definitely, but we have to get there first and once we are there; stay there! Next question can/will we be bigger/ better than both clubs? My answer; as above. What you are missing is the word potential! We have the potential to do both of the above and I think we can and will. Currently, your thought process is way out! I want to say what you are saying, but I will say it when the facts (not fantasy) speak for themselves. I believe we have the current persons within the club to achieve this. What I was trying to say is we shouldn't be classing teams that are similar to us as bigger teams otherwise based on your post above that doesn't leave many teams who we are better than and means that we should expect to lose every game - I am not sure a team that was in the Super League for 7 odd years reaching 2 Scottish Junior Cup finals twice in the last 10 years should be classing themselves as not bigger than teams like those listed above. You yourself rightfully mention attendances as well - way ahead there as well. I am not sure what you mean at the start about MK i am maybe reading it wrong or missed something. Anyway Huge LEAGUE game next week. I would put Camelon in the same boat as Hill of Beath (established big club) but can't see them winning the league. There for they are there for the beating 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't mean Mathu, when you were taking about the team - just the rest of the players....!! I don't think any of them lack motivation but I cant answer for any of them on this.
