Seekfedup Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I don't think he's embarrassing for the club. He's certainly an absolute Fanny but in managerial terms he's doing a decent job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzy Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Junior football needs characters like Chris Strain. He has been good for the Buffs and Junior football in general. After all football is meant to be entertainment and guys like Chris give yous all something to talk about. Junior football would be boring if we didn't have the banter about guys like Chris.

Talbot Bing Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I think this kind of thread is in bad taste. Aiming at one guy just because he doesn't conform to another's opinion shouldn't be a reason to character assanate him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bluebells Are Blue Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Well put Talbot Bing. I think it's a bit unfair,& think Chris is doing a great job for us at Buffs.Recon there's a few clubs fightin' relegation wish they had him at the helm!

DOA Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 What a ludicrous post.This is what happens when somebody's sense of humour goes AWOL.I'd be surprised if no manager in the juniors has escaped the referees wrath for this kind of thing over the season. Most of it is gamesmanship imo ,like players shouting "lino,lino" every two minutes because that is what they have been told to do.This post has a distinct taste of sour grapes for some reason though.

Marlowe Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Don't close the thread. It's an interesting topic as it's become part of the spectacle at matches and I'm sure there are other management teams who cause fans to enjoy their abusive behaviour. I do remember a few years back when Kilwinning had the benefit of the world's leading goalkeeping coach who constantly and loudly harangued his own outfield players (never heard him shouting at his own goalkeepers though) went right over the top at a game against Ardeer with his aggressive and abusive shouting and the referee red-carded George Grierson, the manager, as he believed he was the culprit and sent him to the clubhouse. Frankly the event was livened up by the episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bul21402 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 What is wrong with a coach/manager being a bit animated. ...... Not a lot, but, I've always found that the ones that line to give it out are the ones who get the petted lip out when somebody does it with them Saw it with Strain at Lugar on Wednesday in our game v Buffs He was giving it large to the supporters behind the dugout and when some, of which I was one , told him to shut his trap, he wanted to fight Saw the same, to a slightly lesser extent ,with Sandy McLean in our game v Ardrossan on the Monday. That man has to be the tosser in chief in the juniors Perfectly illustrated when a Winton player was injured. And ball was played out to let the player get treatment , he was a bit upset that the Cumnock coaching team wanted them to give us the ball back His reasoning was his team was getting pumped, did we really expect them to give the ball back and invite pressure back on his team What a fud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly the event was livened up by the episode. I mind that game well. Our winning goal came moments before Grierson was sent off but the scorer was an absolute mile offside.

joker1982 Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 For clarification.....i enjoy passion as much as anyone. Strain's passion wasn't the issue....as I said a few times, the issue was for him to embarrass himself by hiding like a little girl instead of taking it on the chin when the officials wanted words. So the only agenda I had was to highlight what a fud he was on wed night for doing that. Anyway roll on tomorrow......hopefully see a bit more quality football than we did on wed.

Talbot Bing Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Im my opinion Strain is a winner he will fight to get what he wants. It won't fit everyone's idea of what they see as a manager but I would take him as a manager over some mediocre lame gaffer any day. Good luck to him. Future Talbot manager?

Suilven Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Show me a good loser and I will show you a loser. We all say and do things in the heat of battle that we may have cause to regret when things cool down. I had the pleasure to spend a little time in Chris's company after the 2nd leg of the Semi final he had a lot of interesting thoughts on the game and on the Buffs future - as well as wishing Beith all the best for the final - Chris will be a success at Kilwinning if he stays or wherever he goes should he move on.

Bul21402 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I take it you were the gob shite behind the lugar dugout that obviously isnt allowed to talk in the hoose. Not sure if you are referring to me but if so, then my crime was to shout at the referee about one of his decisions I didn't agree with, which prompted Strain to tell me to "shut the f**k up" to which I advised him if he wanted me to shut up, then he should be the one to do so As I said earlier , I have no problem with a coach having a go at folk in the crowd as I don't believe people should be able to shout at them without them being able to have a go back as if it's good to give it out then you should be ready to take it back As far as not being allowed to speak in the house, you seem to be an authority on the subject, so I will bow to your knowledge As far as being a gobshite is concerned , I am not familiar with that description as my vocabulary is slightly more extensive than yours . However , I do know what a knuckle dragger is and that seems to fit you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
