I think he was very overated and hoofing the ball upto him constantly never worked. If there is any money for players, which there probably isn't, I hope Bollan uses it on someone else.

He would be streets ahead of what we have now in the midfield. Agree we don't want Adam. Why would we? We have McGurn and McGovern, two very good keepers. Renton was our Player of the Year last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He worked hard and was usually knackered too soon because of all the long balls punted at him, but he would be well down my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's another one that forgot we were safe in 10th position when he arrived, then had us relegated before the season ended and knocked out the cup by junior opposition, chaos off the pitch , blew an unassailable lead in spectacular fashion until he finally departed the scene leaving the club in a worse position than when he took over....."clearly WAS a disaster" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowden316 Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 What an ungrateful mob Forfar appear to be on here in regards to Bollan. Someone who yes was almost certain to win League 2 until Arbroath caught up or should I say Dick caught up with Forfar to silence their ungratefulness in sacking him. But Bollan still got Forfar promoted via the playoffs over 4 legs. Forfar may see history repeating itself again. Whilst highly unlikely I would love to see Bollan do a Dick to Forfar for their ungratefulness but this time in a relegation vs promotion playoff with Cowden going up. Maybe next season for the title when Forfar come back down as I see Jim Weir is doing wonders for them. Bollan has a good track record and a very high win rate yet he seems to have many critics. In Bollan we trust and hope he can silence his critics whilst doing a good job for Cowden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's regarded as a crap manager that will do for us as can't be any worse than we have had in the last few seasons. I think personally it's his personality some people don't like as surely his track record people can't regard that as a rubbish manager. This is League two we are talking about not signing a manager for the English Premier big guns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking bollocks....we were safe in 10th position when he took over, experienced team that just missed out on promotion to the championship the season before, dressing room turmoil followed by relegation before the end of the season....this may well be his last job in the senior game.

Time will tell. Gary Locke was written off and was very impressed how quickly he got the best out of a team that was struggling. I have every confidence in Bollan as his experience, credible track record speaks for itself not just based on the fact Forfar are still hurting that Dick silenced Forfar by his retaliation in pipping Bollan to the title that's not Bollans fault or because some people can't take to him.
