JJ McG Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Has been a superb signing and the guy is only 24, only going to get better under JR at St.mirren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garf Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Easily his best game for Saints on Saturday. Just edged out Reilly for MotM for me. He seems to be getting better every week. Superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Arthur Blair Posted June 27, 2020 Report Share Posted June 27, 2020 Played for us in the Premiership a little over 18 months ago, today signed for Darvel in the WoS League. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddieinEK Posted June 27, 2020 Report Share Posted June 27, 2020 Played for us in the Premiership a little over 18 months ago, today signed for Darvel in the WoS League. When I saw the thread live, I thought we had resigned him.I know there are good players in the juniors... but I'd have thought him still well above that level.

They were among the numerous teams who joined the Senior "pyramid" and are now in the West of Scotland League. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just surprised McShane isn't playing Championship or above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they were the same level as Renfrew and Arthurlie last season and had quite a few ex pros kicking about. Rumours of £300 - £400 a week at that level.

Good money and a potentially longer career to be at that level for someone with a good day job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why they are at Darvel. Just like top tier professionals signed for lower league cnuts, Gretna, back in the day. How's that for an original thought, St Lucy the Offended Jessie ?

santaponsasaint Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 Good luck to Ian McShane whatever he does. Done a great job for us the season we won the championship. Always be welcome at SMP. Coys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTOF Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 Jordan kirkpatrick also signed with them, got to love players with ambition [emoji3061]I had to go and look up who he was, although his name seemed familiar. Probably a sad reflection on my failing memory and the player's shiteness when he was at the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windae cleaner Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 Darvel have plenty of money from creative sources They took Glenvale 2003 for their development U20 team At least their ground is getting done up and floodlights fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 And when the moneymen pull out and there are stacks of players on long contracts with big money and other high club expenses, what happens then. Unsustainable with an average of 100 fans and Darvel do a Gretna and die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exciting times for them. Will keep an eye on their results. 🥧 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TPAFKATS Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Only 27 yo and should be championship level at peak of his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TPAFKATS Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 It’s possible that he has received no offers from Championship clubs. For all we know he may have business interests outside of football and has ambitions to grow that. Yeah, he didn't seem to be a great hit with Falkirk fans in league one.
