I know it is late but it is burning me up . the AWR Mangewment Team dont have clue they have brought in total nughties ,so far the way we are going we will be fighting relegation , i know for a fact that 90 per cent of the players dont understand and the direction we are heading we have taken off or not played our top socreres in the last 3 games in charge, i'am being daft but should we change now or take a chance ? well stiesh what do you think?

[der73]

I dont know, John Garroch has only been in 5 minutes, he needs to be given a chance. He probably doesn't know the individual players' capabilities yet the way Derek Frye did. A couple of bad results yeah, but lets be honest the conditions haven't done us any favours, Winton dont adapt well to bad weather. I might be jumping the gun here, but I cant see us being relegated. Our good start to the season has surely banished all fears of that.

The new management need time. Remember, John led Dalry to the last 4 of the Scottish last season

[steish]

Ah reckon he's still these for the job. Our only problem has been scorin goals but am sure that'll come. Any of the players av spoke to are right behind him and like you said, he doesn't know the individual capabilities of the players yet. Next week against dalry is a
Must-win for us and I hope, and Think it will kick-start our season. The new guy we had at centre half the day had a tough time but I think John McMillan will prove his worth in the 2nd half of the season. I don't think today's game and the game at hurlford should have been on.
P.S I have tried to stop posting on this when am home from the boozer. Gee it a bash. Haha.

Was John the manager at Dalry last season ? Was it not the season before ?

[RobRoyGuy]

He was co manager I got the impression Darren Henderson was the brains in the partnership though .

You really do like stirring


John Garroch led to Dalry to a ADL title 4 years ago also he did very well for Kilwinning Rangers under21s so i think the guy deserves a chance to put his own stamp on the Winton team.

[RobRoyGuy]

Obviously the guy will have his own qualities , and he will probably do well with ardrossan . Just the impression i got that's all .

[g40]

DER73 wrote only a couple of bad results and you may be jumping the gun. To put today's result in perspective, Cumbernauld have won their last 3 games against Glenafton, Lanark, Glencairn before beating AWR today as well as drawing with Clyde in a friendly last week. AWR beat Cumbernauld easily back in November, but Cumbernauld have obviously improved a lot since then. I would not include the 1-0 defeat to them yesterday as a indicator of things being badly wrong.

As John would and often did admit when at Dalry, Sammy Conn was the brains and he the gub of the partnership.

The big man i think is more of a motivational charachter rather than a tactician and thats not being disrespectful in any way;that is why the assistant he has brought in will be very important to yous.I agree with the point that the conditions do not favour the teams that like to get the ball down and play as we at the Glens have found to our cost last week against the Buffs.As has been said many times before a good or bad run in this league will see you up near the top or near the bottom so nothing can be taken for granted

For your information the Buffs players wanted a nice dry too because we are better side on a dry surface

Anyway back to Big J i am convinced he will prove the doubters wrong soon.

The Buffs deserved the win on the day i have no complaints but i do think the conditions suited yous more

I am sure also he will do alright

[Kilwinning Ranger]

Anyway it is gone now

Just being nosey hear but if this guy was no.2 at Glenafton what has happened to steve kerrigan? i thought he went back there after Denam had left? I thought i would hear more from him as he was very well thought of in the East....

[GLENAFTON_LOYAL]

am sure denham brought him in then left and i think keggs is still there, i spoke to him when we played them in wos cup. hes a class act ex bankies striker but he'll be 1st 2 admit he didnt play much cos of our all time goalscorer ken eadie keeping him out the team.

[wintonfan]

give john time, i have faith in him, also the chairman would not have given him the job if he did not believe he could take us forward. Some of the players need to boot their own arses as some defending has been comical

[weebear]

Big john was never number 2 at Glenafton, Keggs was assistant to Hendo. Big John dealt with back room paper work.

[Vambo's Plectrum]

Can't believe JG is getting stick after less than a handful of games. Jeezo, when did Ardrossan turn in to the Old Firm. John has improved every team he has been involved with and has always left them in a hugely better position than when he joined them. He was No. 1 at Dalry but time commitments meant he couldn't keep that going so brought DH on to take over as No1 whilst he stepped back voluntarily. They moved as a team to Glens and look at where they are now. John wanted to have a go at running his own team again - not because of any fallout reasons or anything like that - he left on best terms with everyone, go to the Glens website for proof of that . AWR don't realise yet how lucky they are. Just watch them go.
