Cunt turned down FT deals in the Championship to join OG. You'd be amazed at some of the cash clubs are chucking around. Zander Diamond was apparently getting around £700 a week to manage Syngenta in the East of Scotland last season.

East Kilbride are throwing daft money about the now too

Is Lowland league/WOS/juniors full of dodgy characters?

Not so much now as more and more clubs get their licences but there are still a few. Camelon/Syngenta stuff this season was fucking wild (Guy running Syngenta's senior team withdrew his(also allegedly dodgy) cash midway through the season, took all the staff, players and sponsors to Camelon, binned their existing staff and players and folded Syngenta).

To be fair it’s happening across all industries at the moment. Some of the salaries being thrown about are eye watering for folk that are bang average.

I can make similar arguments for various ex-Rangers players who are still adored. Gascoigne and Laudrup being two very obvious examples. McCoist and Durrant another two...

Different era, it was the done thing back then. You were competing, domestically anyway against people who lived the same lifestyle.

Now our knowledge of sports science and the impact of alcohol and weight on the body is light years ahead and players should be athletes.

And BTW, that story I posted a few month ago about Morelos, Kennedy and Alegria being out their bangers that weekend rallying around a big 4x4 (which you rubished because you checked with someone with a vested interest in them being untrue) were, of all the rumours I've posted on here, the most solid info. Heard it from both the trusted source at Rangers and from someone at Falkirk.

I have no problem with the leaving players doing a farewell lap at the end. Absolutely pointless to play them though and sentimentality for the sake of it. Hopefully none of them actually start the game

Wouldn’t mind Arfield, but same on the rest.

We get 5 subs these days so hopefully will see a couple of them come on at the end, but I'll be hanging around to give them a send off either way.

 

Actually got a bit emotional at the Arfied tribute on instagram by the club, only one of them that hasn't soured their legacy with their performances over the last 12-18 months (for me at least - don't blame anyone for feeling different).

Going to be mental this summer too with (allegedly) dodgy money behind them and having just binned their entire squad.

It still the Keane brother that own them? Heard murmurings of them being dodgy, but dont know any of the details.

Been waiting on an update about the community stadium that is meant to be getting built up in EK for them, plans looked impressive for a team in the Lowland (obviously they have eyes for much higher than that).

Also related to EK. See another 6,000 seater stadium is getting built here for the basketball!

Football stadium is meant to be going somewhere up near Langlands golf course. Somewhere along that road if you know it anyway.

The basketball stadium is going up at Playsport with the view of the old Glasgow Rocks (Now the Caledonia something or others) moving in this August and trying to get into the top Euro League or something. Know fuck all about basketball though, so take all that with a pinch of salt.
