Ergatrude 0 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Time for a fresh start, clean slate. I think we should now drop our grudges & push on with pride & dignity. This could be the best day in our history. Friday 13th July 2012 - the day the most successful team in the world bit the bullet that was fired at the wrong person. Im genuinely excited. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dutchy Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I think initially it will be a bit of a struggle while the whole team/club come to terms with Div3. However I think the club will emerge bigger & stronger than ever before - both on the corporate side & on the playing side. Hopefully the club take the opportunity to develop the youth side of the operation. I was looking at a BBC page listing the 3rd div clubs we'll be up against and at least 3 of them have artificial pitches, with one more planning to lay one. That could be tricky at first and I'm sure we won't get it all our oaw way with 100% in results. Maybe the youths will have a bit more experience on this surface, but I'm still hopeful that we get out of the 3rd at first time of asking. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metlika 0 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 It all depends on the calibre of player we get but even if teams have artificial pitches we should beat them easily. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever the average playing staff budget is in Div3, we will be paying double or triple and that will make it nigh on certain that we will walk Div3 and Div2 and then begin building an SPL squad for Div1. As long as the fans support it, we'll breeze through the lower divisions. Fiorentina did it at the first time of asking straight back to Serie A if I'm not mistaken. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The indoor pitch at Auchenhowie is the same Dutchy, plus all the younger players have grew up playing on 3G surfaces, believe it or not but my lads play more games on 3G than grass. Saves the councils money they say (shocker). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder what odds we can get on winning the 4 titles on the trot, now there's a goal to aim for. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dutchy Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I agree with what you say JC, it's just the only think I could think of that would be a hinderance to us going straight back up. These clubs will also get a great boast in the arm, financially as you can see from this link that the average crowd is about 500, with Elgin City the highest at 630. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18735027 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
