Now he's throwing him under the bus here IMO. He's lost a lot of them, 100%. Particularly the Aussie boys. Not his mates though. We all know who they are.

There’s a long JKB tradition that you’re only ever accused of a knee-jerk reaction by people too dim to know what a knee-jerk reaction actually is. Think it might be a posting rule, tbh.

OTT Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Really do think Neilson needs to go now. He's doing the whole talking a good game whilst putting all the responsibility onto the players. He talks about us being "miles off", well I'm sorry Robbie but its your ****ing job to make sure we're not miles off. I think he's lost the dressing room. I don't know what they're doing at Riccarton, but its not enough. We were 2nd best to everything and there genuinely is no redeeming aspects to todays performance. it was piss poor and not good enough, but that is symptomatic of our entire season, now 3rd is under serious threat and its not because of Europe.

We've got FoH subs and JA writing a considerable cheque every year. Doesn't seem to be giving is much of an advantage over Hibs and Aberdeen. If we manage to scrape 3rd we're going to be 40+ points behind Rangers. Pathetic Pathetic doesn't come close, we are going backwards which is a travesty given our fantastic support and finances compared to our rivals.

Holtie Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 So let me get this right, we are 4 and 5 points ahead of Aberdeen and Hibs respectively who have both had very poor season so far resulting in the sacking of a manager. We meanwhile stagger on with Neilson at the helm because we had a European campaign to navigate and we need to ‘cut him some slack’ as it was very difficult to play Sat. Thursday for several weeks. That is long behind us and what has the team done since - lost to Motherwell 3-0, Celtic 3-0 and 3-1, Rangers 3-0 and Aberdeen 3-0….but more importantly we simply haven’t competed in any of these games. I’ve been at all of them bar today and for the supposedly”third force”in Scottish football we have not turned up for any of these games. Neilson hasn’t learned a thing about formation, tactics etc over these games and today, yet again, we could have gone home before them 30th minute. Anyone and I mean anyone who thinks Neilson can take this team forward is talking out his arse. The Board needs to ‘man up”and remove Neilson, preferably this week,or at the very worst, at the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
