No really but if we were lucky enough to get to the final which is a long shot By the way , playing them on AstroTurf would that concern me ? not one little bit , and that’s just the way I see it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good side yous have assembled down your way which is expected with the cash that's been spent, you should and did beat us today but we had chances. A result like that is expected. You might get there one day, the Talbot standard, your not there yet so I would calm down a wee bit, good side yes 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bheaten Castard Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Don't expect Darvel to lose another game in the league all season .Best squad (and manager)in the league by mile .The only astro they will be playing Auchinleck in will be in the cup final though . As for cash doubt if they have as big as earners in the squad as Talbot has 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy25 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 I would say Darvel will have players earning more than Talbot .

auldgeezer Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 No complaints about the result today. Darvel were the better team. Grant, Ferns and no's 10 and 7 were quality. However, we had a couple of chances at 1-0, where if we'd taken them MIGHT have changed the game. Darvel are a good team and the quality of the squad, and money spent on it, should see them promoted along with Cumbernauld....but if Darvel come up against Talbot, Beith and Hurlford in the Scottish it'll be a different game. Good to catch up with Mick, Stuart and Brian today and wish them well for the rest of the season [emoji106] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea we have spent money and we won’t deny that but yesterday’s Starting 11 had from Last season 6 amateurs , 3 juniors and 2 reinstatement’s playing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFW Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 11 hours ago, Bheaten Castard said: Are they ? Certinly not a better football playing team ,maybe better at hoofball You're undoubtedly right in that respect. Winning 7 Junior Cups under Tommy Sloan by booting the ball aimlessly up the pitch hoping someone will latch on to it has evidently paid dividends. As has winning the Super League a record six times, including four "doubles" has all been done playing anti football. It's a frigging wonder we're not in the District League because we are so abjectly awful. When was the last time you saw us play, by the way? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
