It's not going to be instant sucess, roll in the bunting and accept its going to take a while to create a league topping super side. There's no chance of Kennedy being sacked. Anyone who thinks they will is seriously deluded. It's a strange one, it was well advertised that he and pieman were joint investors in it all, then came on here last week and said they weren't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard how much Gall supposedly puts in and it's actually not that much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AM-1 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Tensions running high tonight guys! Everyone just needs to chill out and be patient but it shows that throughing the cash about doesn't yield success at this level and maybe too many big egos in the dressing room. As an outsider looking in from what I'd read Darvel were the next big thing in the WOSFL but that doesn't seem the case as yet for watever reason. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many of these current players have won a winners medal at junior or senior level? Just asking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samsonite Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Don't know the ins and outs of the club but does the manager really invest money into the club? Never heard of that before but certainly one way of ensuring you keep your job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystic Blastie Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Money does talk I'm afraid. Just been told that a Darvel player was recently approached by Stranraer and offered £200 per week to sign. He just laughed in their face and told them he was on £400 at Darvel and he wasn't even one of the top earners. No way can they keep that up without winning this league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to your figures about half a million pounds a year would be needed to service a team. I struggle to believe that is true. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Davy Boy Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 I thought against Clydebank that Darvel were streets ahead and last ten minutes came from nowhere. Crazy to be talking about your manager being sacked as most of the players will have signed for or cause of him in first place 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We we’re missing too many players including Nicky Little that day as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 2 year deal at Dumbarton was enough to persuade him to stay but there's no doubt Darvel are offering players £400, possibly more at their top end. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar Wilder Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Don't know about Medda or Buffs but Glens certainly weren't paying anything like that, especially in the 90s, but you seem to know, so who were the players getting £400? Meadow were paying that amount 10 years ago Kilwinning were paying that 15/20 year ago Glenafton were paying that when Alan Rough was there Of course it’s a load of crap [emoji90] that teams are paying that amount of money for players to sign 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He likes the days out to Ayrshire with his family, or the £400 a week being lumped into his bank account? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop telling lies please, we didn’t trie and sign Ryan in the summer we tried to sign him in the previous summer. I know Ryan he’s a great lad and top player, he certainly wasn’t offered £400, not one player is on that type of money or has any player been offered it.
