Cmon the Hill Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I have just seen that our (Maryhill's) game with Bellshill has been cancelled because of the clear out of the management team. Just wondering what the story is! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donny23gh Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 I think he will try to cope better than his predecessor. But we will understand this only at the end of the season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure he is taking them with him and the ones that are were already there are finding other clubs And good luck to him he had a good outfit with plenty who already had junior experience 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amateur team were very decent but hardly world beaters, and seem to be making a big difference already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said they were world beaters said there a good team Naw it just shows Saltcoats are no great shakes at the moment Good start for them though not taking anything away from them I'm not a fan off either club just putting out the score And detest this sight getting used for a public slagging match Some people need to set there standards higher on line,I'm not meaning you personally 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spyro Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 All good mate, was just an observation having watched United a few times in the amateur league. Tbf, they seem to play well in the tough games but seen them play absolutely horrifically against the lesser teams. Hopefully the boys are more settled at this level and can kick on. I’m not getting into the politics of what’s happening there, but I wish the lads all the best in trying to move on and getting the big Bellshill team back to where they should really be 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spyro Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Yeah it’s a very strong league, especially for Sunday standards. I play in the league below and fancied our chances against them (we were promised a friendly but never materialised!), but I know when they turn it on they would absolutely rip us apart… as would most teams in that top division! It’s interesting seeing the crossover between the top ammy teams vs the tier 7-8 teams, there’s not much difference in talent but comes down to fitness and commitment and that’s something the lads from Bellshill all had over a lot of us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Sunday team was one off the teams that got put up and your right about the fitness at one time our guys were training twice a night Bellshill are a good team we were a bit injury ravaged when we played them but that isn't a excuse most teams will be in the same situation over the weeks I usually watch the juniors at all different levels amongst other leagues and a few did stand out It's what happens if you can bring a team it's just its usually from Saturday teams were they all go together or the u20 guys get the chance to all go together happens a lot just now in the juniors 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spyro Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 We’ve not even trained yet this season, still joint top though but the standard in our league is light years away from that top division It will be interesting to see how the lads at Bellshill recruit. They were well liked so I can see a shake up happening with a few boys joining them. Can only be a good thing for Athletic, I just hope it doesn’t mess up the amateur teams too much because it shaping up to be an awesome league this season. It’s great to see the teams that went up holding their own too, showing them that some of the teams below are no mugs either 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
