Can’t have it both ways, if you want the big Scottish then sadly promotion in to the seniors might come along eventually No one at Talbot has ever said that, in fact the opposite. Players are wanting to test themselves at the highest level possible, the same as the club.

Talbot supporter Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 I honestly think our league is better than the lowland league but the powers at be need you to go up through that monstrosity of a league to progress further, for me you should be able to win our league and go into league2 [emoji846] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killiepiyo Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Play decent the first 45 and say right lads, andy25 doesn’t want to see us play in the division above so let’s just let a few chances go in and give them the prize… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South_Pride Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 £14 for League 2 The standard at the top of the West league is higher. Over time the also ran clubs that have clung on at Lowland League level and League 2 level will dwindle down. 10 ex Junior Clubs in League 2 or higher within 15 years? Certainly a possibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the usual guff from you m8 can’t hide your vile. It’s clear and stated my opinion is my own the only person claiming to speak for others is yourself, with your name, target and shame tactics on players. You’ve made that clear about moving up and what is the alternative? Chuck games? Your the one moaning week after if we’re not 5-0 up at half time. Dire first 45. If we win we go up, not win the players aren’t good enough, We need better recruiting etc etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If players are repeatedly poor then they deserve criticism their getting well paid its not as if their playing for free.I've been watching Talbot 45+ years not a johnny come lately like yourself. I'll still attend as many games as I can if Talbot get promoted it just won't be as many as I'd like to.And you don't know anything about me to call me vile [emoji846] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some trees bend in the wind and survive the storm others resist, break and fall, no matter how long they’ve been standing. You can have pops at me all day and it doesn’t change that if Talbot keep being Talbot, in the high exceptions you hold of them, they will move up to your annoyance. If they lose and not win anything it will also be to your annoyance. Can you see how that may not be a healthy way to continue? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not up to speed on the legality of it but why are clubs in England able to agree an away ticket price cap of £30 if it's a criminal offence? https://www.premierleague.com/news/1049265 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talbot losing games against Cumnock Kilwinning Pollok Clydebank being replaced by games against Broomhill Gretna Edinburgh University. Very attractive Some fair points there. Have to agree that, at this point at least, the West Premier is infinitely more attractive than the interior Lowland League. Paying more at the gate for less is a sacrifice that some supporters will have to pay for following ambitious clubs. Question is, what is the ultimate ambition for your club and is it a price that you are prepared to pay? Less attractive fixtures, smaller to non existent away supports, end of local rivalries, increased entrance charges and bus charges for further travel. As mentioned many times, it'll only right itself once the majority of the bigger clubs find themselves in the same league again. £14 at the moment for League Two football is certainly an eye opening indicator. More for less. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
