drs Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 ...and a quick look at the current managers league record since he was appointed in October - Played 12 Won 2 Drawn 2 Lost 8 For 17 Against 30 No clean sheets Seven games left and just to get out of the relegation spots the team would have to get 9 points in those 7 games and hope Blackburn and HoB lose every game - there are certainly winnable games left aginst HoB, Nitten and Whitehill but based on performances its going to be an awful struggle to make it happen and it does look like the club are going to be relegated for the first time since 2005. Other games left - Tranent and Penicuik and then Mussey and Crossgates. Fingers crossed the reverse jinx will work and they'll now win all 7 games 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojmeister Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 To get back to the football for a moment. I was at the game yesterday and Camelon were absolutely appalling in every aspect of the game. Two guys in the centre of midfield who are slower than me and I'm 65. It's gone from a bad season to an incredibly bad season since the new manager came in. Totally clueless in how to set up a team. No pace, no imagination, no idea how to mark up the opposition. Certain to be relegated unless there is some sort of miracle. Most worrying is that if and when they do go down it could be for a long time as I cannot see them attracting decent players given the reputation the club has now gathered for itself. It's a shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad to see the demise of Camelon this season. Whilst not in top 4 or so of best teams, I always saw Camelon as a stuff/hard side to beat in seasons gone by. By all accounts yesterday’s performance sounds like a side who are going down. Let’s not kick ourselves that they will suddenly find form and get enough points to remain in Premier league next season. Then, whoever is in charge of club will have two obstacles in their way. Building a side capable of promotion and to sort out a ground which seems to be crumbling before their own eyes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedLichty Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Big game this weekend vs Nitten. A Nitten win really makes it very hard to imagine staying up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razamanaz Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) BOGOF for Camelon v Tranent this Saturday https://www.facebook.com/camelonjuniorsfootballclub/photos/a.715719758550788/4704353133020744/ Edited March 23, 2022 by razamanaz 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory puts Syngenta on 10pts too (likely enough for a runner-up slot if Tranent nick top on GD); victory followed-up at Lochore on Sat puts Camelon on 9pts (potentially enough). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you enjoy the game. Wonder if Falkirk will ever get out of this dip? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a fourth season of League One football almost certain, the club will almost certainly become part-time in the near future, and, with an influx of strong teams rising through the pyramid (e.g. Kelty) the league will continue to get tougher. The continual recruitment of poor managers and poorer players on long-term deals means that I don’t see Falkirk going anywhere anytime soon, unfortunately. At least every player is trying like a bear at Carmuirs Edited March 29, 2022 by razamanaz 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potential for an upset tomorrow? Bookies would say so I suspect , I’ll take Andy Rodger’s for a goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Carrigan Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 I used to live near Camelon and would often dive to Carmuirs if I couldn't get away from work on Saturday afternoon in time to make Clyde away games. It really got to the point where I considered Camelon my second team but obviously after Herd (and the full management team and squad) left it became a pretty dire place to be. A mate told me recently that yer mad man Alan Horne has been appointed to the committee too, he was over on the Clyde P&B page voicing his unwavering and bizarrely worded support for David Goodwillie - seems like a wild move to appoint him but I'm sure he'll add... something. Good job there's no controversial goings on at Clyde to spoil things for me eh? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drs Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Defeat tomorrow against HOB and that will be relegation officially sealed (although its been a given for months), even a draw would see the Mariners go down if Blackburn win at Broxburn. A win just delays the inevitable. Is the great escape on? Can Camelon defy the odds and bring about the greatest comeback since Jesus?
