indianajones Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 This is the same board that believe we have 7k people in a queue for a season ticket BTW so don't expect action anytime soon. The three of them should be emptied immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbee647 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Till the board goes there will be absolutely no difference to the issues surrounding the club on the playing field 100% the problem eminate from the board, until they are replaced we will always have problems on the field They’ve absolutely no football knowledge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaap's Sigh Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) 4 points from what should have been 12. Even the win was a poor performance from us. Eye bleeding football in all games apart from the Rosenborg one. Hardly ever testing a keeper. Slow, boring, mundane and unimaginative shite.

DC_92 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 We dropped 5 points at home to non-OF teams in the entirety of last season and have already dropped the same amount in 2 games so far. The squad isn't perfect, but it's at least as good as last season's imo. The problem is the tactics are non-existent. He doesn't have a clue what he's doing. Selects line-ups that anyone can see won't work then has to make a host of changes at half-time, which are never effective. At least when a new manager comes in you are looking for some sign of a style of play. We have none. He's just in the door so we're probably stuck with this for a while, unfortunately. The board made a big call in sacking Neilson when they did and won't want to lose face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor Meldrew Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 It gives me no satisfaction to have thought from the outset that this was going to be a disaster and now to have been proved right. The B team manager and a failed Preston boss were never going to be the ones to take us up a level - indeed, they're taking us down. The responsibility lies with the Board - time after time they've made poor decisions as to the appointment of managers. That needs to change.

Selkirkhmfc1874 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 These all need removed from our football club , Andrew McKinlay , Joe Savage , Frankie McAvoy and Gordon Forrest. Get a proper experienced football manager in along with his own coaching team and if Naisey happy to work within that then fine and if not bye bye because we're far too big a club for amateurish experiments.

BackOfTheNet Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 We have no discernible style. We are playing players where they shouldn’t and not to their strengths. This squad is more than capable of getting 12 out of 12 in our opening games, but the management and tactics deployed obviously are not. Simply not good enough and there can be no complaints if they get let go at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands up looks like I was very wrong. We're a shambles. Yeah I'm big enough to admit when I'm wrong as well. Was mostly for him getting the job. What I'll say though is that we thought he'd actually get the job, not a 'management team'. I stupidly believed what he said about playing attacking football as well, what we've got is just the continuation of Neilson. Club is turning into a laughing stock.

The White Cockade Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) Looks like Robbie wasn’t the problem move no idea what actually is the problem but I have moved out of the happy clapper society the club is a total shambles and the fans are being taken for fools We have donated millions to the club and the team is now worse than Lockie’s admin kids team where are the updates from the chief exec / board ? we’ve heard nothing from them since the appointed Naismith as head coach and even that turned out not to be the case I enjoyed the dross of the 70’s far more than the last couple of seasons underachieving gutless non events Shanks will be telling his agent to get him out of here fast a 30 goal a season striker having to bust a gut as a midfield ball winner What is going on!!!! i’ll be watching Bonnyrigg Rose every week at this rate Edited September 3, 2023 by The White Cockade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorgieFifeLife Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 For a number of years now we have been just far too soft as a club. Board, management, players and also fans are too wiling to accept mediocrity. We don’t have enough nasty characters about the club. The team is missing that in all areas. I’ve even read things from fans on here that Scott Brown is a big bully🤦🏻. It’s embarrassing as that is the kind of character we need, a nasty piece of work on the pitch who plays to win. Our recruitment has failed over a number of years to get this type as it seems we are only targeting nice characters. We are as weak as piss.

Said this just before the announcement in the summer was ridiculed for it anyone who thought the b team manager who finished bottom half of the 5th tier scottish football could/ should be leading this club forward need to have a long look at themselves and that goes for board and fans who went along with this embarrassment, certain fans and board members undervalued the club and now we're seeing the results and feeling the effects.(or is it feeling the results and seeing the effects).
