This is like George Best all over again 😲
Well done Deeks - the lad enjoys his football
Might be interesting to hear the next home gate for St Bernards, could be att: 14,351
Hail Hail 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Lots of respect for Deeks. Lived the dream.
Was at a race night a while back at the Clerrie Inn for my Nephews Edinburgh City fundraiser. Deeks came in with a few mates, sat down & spent some time with my Nephew & his team mates, chatting & answering questions etc, made the young lads day.
Different class Deeks👍
Is there a Vlad figure operating in the world of the Lothian and Edinburgh Amateurs? Does he pick the side and get to come on for the last five minutes of the Stevie Maskrey Cup final so he can lap up the glory. This thread is fast becoming a Hibs Net classic. Keep it coming folks:not worth
I've played amateur for years at a very good level and an absolutelt ***** level and I can honestly say I was never offered a penny.
I ran a team for the 2nd half of last season just to help out and ended up nearly £500 out of pocket just trying to cover costs. If other guys are making enough that they can afford to pay their players then I want to know their secret.
I played with St Bernards last season. I got paid loads. whereswallace? paid my mortgage, and I was about the worst player there.
Damn,all those years of playing football and I never caught onto the fish suppers for playing scandal, I always thought it was a buy your own scenario. There again I'm vegetarian. Now it's all about pro's retiring from the dizzy heights of Scottish League 2 in order to cash in on the amateur bonanza. Clearly my career was 20 years too late for this unpredicted explosion of backhanded luncheon vouchers and bus tokens that allegedly make the once proud Lothian leagues a mockery of the words pub team.
yip im the same, played saturday and sunday and never heard of any teams in west lothian or edinburgh paying players, some guys were weeks behind with their subs never mind being paid to play, clearly someone on here wasn't good enough to get a game somewhere so is a bit bitter!!
I doubt if Derek Riordan is getting paid anything to play for St Bernards.
I was actually a household name, and also a great player in my heyday, but despite scoring several hat-tricks, I never got paid a penny.
