QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS, CLUB POLLS
This page will feature Q&A where past and present Rhymers players will answer your questions. It will also have club polls which will determine
your thoughts on a variety of questions such as 'Who will win the top goal scorer award?' and  'Who will win promotion this season?'.
The first poll of the season asks Who do you think will be The Rhymers top goal scorer?
The first question and answers session is with current player and manager Robert Gourdie;

Question: How would you sum up last season?
Answer: "I thought everything was going well apart from Gooses bad discipline then I returned from a
two and a half year lay off and we lost out on promotion!"


Question: Could the attitude of the players have been any better last season and how did you rate the
performances of your new signings?
Answer: "The attitude of most players was excellent. The new signings all did well, Goose managed to
play almost half the games. P.C. Gibson finally started to pass to his team mates. Once Nick stopped
playing with his Xmas trees he done well. After 6 months of trying to lure trout out the local watering hole
(swan bar) his talents shone through after demanding a signing on fee of 10 pints and a packet of fags."


Question: How do you think The Rhymers will perform in the league this year?


Question: How will the appointment of Aidan Hume as assistant head coach benefit The Rhymers?
Answer: "Being a former ref maybe he can help us with his connections in the refereeing circles, golden
hand shakes and all!"


Question: What positions need strengthening this summer if Earlston are to gain promotion?
Answer: "A new manager is the only place that I'm looking to strengthen!"

Question: Which players do you feel will be most influential  in order for Earlston to win promotion?
Answer: "If we can keep Trout out the pub, Gibby passing, Goose on the park,  a few english lessons for
Nick and if Neil plays half as good as last year we will have a shout."
