geo87 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Are Burghs 21s not affiliated to them? Thought that would be the starting point. Also a very good local team in thorn athletic but think their existing youth teams are at a much younger age 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Killoch Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 We aren’t taking over any club, the Glenvale 2003 management team approached the club asking could they take over the running of the Darvel west of Scotland under 20s. They will be bringing the core of their squad and adding additional players. According to their Facebook and Twitter.... Glenvale 2003’s will be Darvel’s U20 LL development team. You’re now saying that they approached you however, your Chairman’s updated statement ( intended to clear up ambiguity!) clearly says that YOU (personally) approached THEM !For the Glenvale boys sake, I genuinely hope I’m wrong but the cynical bit in me suggests that the en-mass ‘recruitment’ of a youth team (& staff) from 25 miles away is largely a cosmetic exercise which will offer those boys little more than false hope ! As I said .... I really hope I’m wrong. Out of curiosity.... whats the average age of your current squad ? I’m guessing mid to late 20’s ?Part of the problem ‘doon the brae’ is that you’ve set the bar so high for yourselves. I’m not criticising your ambition ... far from it .... however, your investment brings with it no small measure of expectation and in reality, as we’ve seen this season .... if / when your squad needs strengthening ..... you go out and buy yourself an ex pro or bring in an experienced top end amateur. Next season ... when it eventually starts .... will be a damn sight tougher for you than this season has ever been but .... with the money that’s been spent .... the level of expectation will not reduce. You’ll get injuries and suspensions just the same and at a higher level, that will hurt you even more. In those circumstances, will ‘youth’ get its chance ? ..... or, will you take the safe option and reach for the cheque book ? I fear it will be the latter but I’d be delighted to be wrong. Good luck for the new season. p.s. where will the U20’s play their home games ??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the feck would any idiot team want to pay for players to join a development team. No idiotic point, they would just go and buy a player for the first team and for your information, all lads are released in youth football so anyone can go anywhere. If the team who wins the development league is that desperate to win the development league then they would not be interested in youth development and two of the current coaches in St Cadocs development team would not be involved, they would walk away I don't get why people make up these idiotic stories and why people would like the idiotic stories must have nothing to do 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy groundhopper Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Ha Ha guess influence of money means the under 20/21 are getting say £20 a game, you'll have 1st teamers begging to play on the Friday for a few extra quid - who'd have thought it ! Fully expect anyone over 18 to be around the first team anyway,if you're good enough etc etc IF a club takes another clubs youth set up (players) where's the guarantee that they will all play at the new club ?

I'm sure you drive and you could be driving for more that 30 years, but you could still be shite, its just a fact of life, some of us know our limits, some think they know more, again fact fo life This season, players who are 2001 or younger can play for the development team Anyone and their cat knows every player in the development team is signed with the first team and any first team player can play 6 times for the development squad but in essence if the first team management are putting 2 lad sin every week this will wreck havoc with player development. These over aged players should only be played if needing match fitness, coming back from injury. the comment, "can tell your used to wee boy stuff", that's your wee mind and your wee viewpoint. The funny think is, are you proven in development football or pro youth, it would be nice to know lol I think your comment of the prov in bold below tells em you haven't looked that much into it. I wonder if there is any development teams with only just 2003 players, hmmmmm Wonder if you can help me, (he says smiling as he types) heres a hint, if a player is a 2002 player and is registered with the first team, can he still play more than 6 games for the development squad and if so, would the management have him play for the development squad.

With the influence of money couldn’t write it Classy outfit that lol " So is he saying they are trying to tempt other teams to become their development team, so does that mean St Cadocs never had any u21s, u19s, U17s teams, Im unsure what he means as hes not stating what he means and then hes deflected from it by trying to say he knows everything about it and I don't lolol I'm positive he is a mindfield of knowledge in the development league.

Why do I think the first post of "St cadocs already trying to poach other teams u20s teams.
