robin i no for sure junior wasn't s**tting himself because you went to big bro about him. and all he said at the time was you'll not win much with just robin. he was meaning you were the only new signing and athletic were adrift at the bottom, bremner was trying to sign him and that was juniors reply.it wasnt meant against you just that u on your own wasn't going to make a big pile of difference, i think you'll agree??? and also the only reason mott got involved was cos junior was in the house and mott was in pickens with you's two(u and sammy), so he could speak to you's. hope this has cleared this up abit to the outside world, and junior never s**t's himself, me and mott are always there. Not completely true Weedo, as I recieved a call from Mott Snr............but we will leave it as it is close enough

Would advise you to start a new thread on our game as Pavel will not like it. It would allow all my players to comment on it. I personally dont make predictions of our games.

Glad bremner and cesc have sorted out their differences. It made for interesting reading anyway. I for one would like to emphasise how much of an impact Steeks has made to the Athletic side. Becoming a manager of a team that's bottom of a division takes some balls and to take the side from bottom to mid table in a couple of months is a credit to him and the whole player personnel that he's brought in.

Just noticed this thread:-
Bremner deserves all the credit he is getting for the transformation of Randalstown Athletic. He has done a fantastic job since taking over. Maybe thats what is annoying the reds so much.
What he doesn't deserve is the amount of pointless and unfounded abuse he has received.
Any comments I have ever read of his, have been light hearted and for topics sake, rather that direct abuse or insults toward anyone.
And that might be a suprise coming from me, as I have had spats with him. But nothing deserves this much abuse, for trying to run a football club.
Theres nothing wrong with a little rivalry between 2 local clubs, but 'publicly humiliating' as it was put, or something along those lines, is over the top.
Everyone on this site, no doubt, enjoys their football. Or you wouldn't be here. I can't speak for anyone else, but I certainly didn't enjoy reading this thread.
There is an old saying which comes to mind......
'Let the football do the talking'

Right, I've been thinking about this situation and left it until now to resolve as late last night was no time to be sorting it out.
Bubbles/Gareth, I don't care which one, this forum is banter friendly, and you have every right, and are welcome to your opinions. However we have a certain way of presenting one's opinion around here, and that doesn't involve attempting to drag other's down.
The majority of things said on this board are light hearted and a mutual respect has grown between teams, players and members; there are however a few people who wish to stir s**t constantly and attempt to gain a "one up" on other members.
Let me make this clear, do not add yourself to that list, as I do not tolerate this kind of behaviour.
Benny, David and Alec, you didn't have to get involved in this little dispute, but you did, don't encourage this sort of inter-team discussion please, as it's incredibly unproductive and only serves to lessen the bonds between each team.
Also Bubbles/Gareth, there was no need to bring Robin into this either...
Lets all calm it down a notch lads, and it should be noted that I have taken on board information from Bremner himself which has saved you from a warning Cesc, so instead I will give you a friendly reminder to not resort to using this board as a "playground" for slinging insults in.

'Let the football do the talking' Pugford the rivalry between Randalstown F C and Athletic is very very strong and thats the way it should be, but certainly not annoying ,the match will not be for the faint hearted but afterwords players will shake hands ( I hope ) and have a laugh

Matthew please do not take offense with what I have to say because it is only my opinion, you are right with what you say by some comments being over the top but I am a we bit alarmed that you have given some names and choose to ignore others who were quite clearly getting involved in the depute ,which seems to me to be a bit one sided and the last thing we want is a blinkered view 8-)I did admit I was doing a bit of s--t stirring on the forums and I apology's for it ,but I believe there are others doing every bit as much and don't get a mention ,if you get my point

I'm not taking offense at your comments Alec, as I say, you're more than entitled to them.
I just want to nip this in the bud before it creates any trouble.
The only problem with the BSMLForums is that unlike nearly every other forum on the internet we all live inside 10-15 miles of each other and most of us know each other. It means that I have to be careful about any repercussions happening outside the board in the "real world" as a result from something said on here.
Precautionary measures Alec if anything,...you know I have a very open mind of freedom of speech around here.

Cheers Pavel and I do know it must be a difficult job you have at times ,but I just thought it had to be said ,when I saw the list of names you put up and names I thought should also been there, I had to voice my opinion and give you a small slap on the wrist As long as we all keep in mind its only football, the game we all love being involved with and its there to enjoy but not to do anyone any harm , thats why the banter should be kept to a level of good humour and respect for what each other are trying to do .

In all the games i have played, i have never really had any dealings with James. He does all the behind the scenes work i think. You can call him "Director of football" if u want cesc - Frank Arnesson if need be, but our gaffer is Jose Bremner ;D Not that i really needed to say that because everyone knows.....including u

as an outsider looking in all i can say from reading this thread is o my god how jealous and afraid can two teams be? ? when i lived in randalstown both teams had players from outside the town playing for them!!! are the blues going to deny harry gaston as one of their all time great goalscorers from glarryford, some distance from randalstown that, chris dowie i believe is from antrim as is ricky wilson, eddie lowry hardly a randalstown born and bread man dont know how many miles rathfriland is from randalstown but quite a few more than antrim. get over your jealousy that i perceive and others do that you all have of bremner and hope that the rumour is true that he is leaving the athletic or maybe for the first time in history the sky blues have a real opposition in the town capable of over turning your dominance of football in the town.

A thread about the reds and Carniny game has now turned into a thread about Bremner.........and you know what.....I bet he's loving it. All this attention on Athletic is good PR and gets the town talking about Athletic and not the other 2 teams. By the looks of this thread there is a hell of a lot of jealousy over Athletic as mentioned above. I don't know if it's because of all the sponsorship they got this year or how they have turned their season around with a string of decent results but there is a lot of people looking at Athletic which can only be good for them.
ohh just one more thing....is the reds really a feeder team for the sky blues or was that a down right lie.....like alot of things on this thread. ;D

We at our great wee club have a much higher agenda than to dominate football in Randalstown ,it is to add more Cups to the ones we have already won, but most of all try and win our league and also the Junior cup ,to win our League we at the moment have to try and dominate the 1st Division teams but we would welcome the Reds and Athletic in there so we could have local derbys to look forward to ,but at the moment they are still in the 2nd ,but we wish them both well in there endeavors to get there, as for playing none local players we at our great wee club have no problem with that at all, as long as we can keep our identity as a Randalstown club which I imagine is the same for the other two teams ,but I cant speak for them nor do I want to as thats their business not mine . Its all very well dishing out the banter on these forums but its how we can take it when it comes back with interest sometimes is very interesting to see cracks appear As for Bremner leaving Athletic ,do me a favour ,the we man has only started and up to now has done a great job at Athletic and Im sure if he gets all the players in he is after , who knows were they will end up , as will be the same with the Reds , We will do everything in our power to continue to stay ahead of them as Im sure they will do everything in theirs to try and close the gap on us ,but until that happens if it ever does our great wee club can only try to deal with a strong 1st division, which Im glad to say we have held our own in for quite some time now, and at the same time were always able to keep our identity as a Randalstown club while at the same time still able to welcome in none local players and I thinks that why we have such a strong support in the town
