Darvel FC Thread


Recommended Posts

Mick, whilst a bit egotistical, does actually come across as an alright guy. If he wants to have a serious future in the game he really needs to separate himself from this shite. I’m surprised he doesn’t get the club to wind their neck in

I think he likes it. When his players are up to similar on social media he seems quite happy to spur them on with sly comments and likes. I suppose it could be seen as a seige mentality, but if Darvel are to achieve any respect in the game they are going about it entirely the wrong way.

Ffs that's shocking, to be the owner and say that totally lacks class imo

Chairman has already been at it with the dire Ronaldo patter

He’s the “ president “ now, which makes his shite patter even worse, that one is obviously in jest but there’s plenty more that’s not and it’s embarrassing to say the least.

It was a bit of fun after every man and their dog said the next Pollok Manager was going to be Mick, folk need to lighten up.

I don't think the joke needed explaining, just that it's about as funny as getting your haemorrhoids trapped in a drawer.

Can we not all just agree that is was a poor effort at humour (kind of par for the coarse now) and that Gall is a Fud, sorry President Fud and move on...

Par for the course indeed.

Other clubs have been disliked for a variety of reasons, normally to do with splashing the cash, but this Darvel lot take the biscuit. 

You would have thought that they'd court a bit of respect for anything they go on to achieve, but would seem not. 

They'd maybe be entitled to their social media nonsense if they were building something at Darvel. Sadly for them they aren't building anything, there's little interest in what they are doing other than on here where people are just waiting for the inevitable implosion 😂.

Building something that will leave a legacy when you walk away is really building something... what he/they are "building" is nothing more than a vanity project for an ego... he didn`t buy the right to say what he wants through the cash thrown at Killie so now has his own wee empire that he can buy a free pass to saying/doing what he likes and every one around him just nodding and cashing the cheques. The funniest thing is he actually believes he is relevant! 

When he goes the club will drop like a cheap tarts drawers... Other "real" clubs in the division can/will survive a chairman (sorry president) walking away as they are a sizeable entity at this level with a historical fanbase and hardcore connections to the community. Talbot, Cumnock, Buffs, Meadow, Hurlford, Pollock or Clydebank, pretty much all of the division can or have survived loosing major investment - Darvel won`t, there`s no legacy, they`ll be gone

Pretty much sums things up. Goes without saying, but fans are so important to clubs at our level and Darvel just haven't built a fanbase. There'll be a legacy in terms of good facilities, but nothing in terms of growing the club beyond one man's ego.
