What's with the countdown to October like

Loon74 posted in the wrong thread, should have been the Forfar Athletic 2017/18 thread. He's referring to the imminent end of Bollan's tenure as our gaffer.

The #bollanout brigade will get a shiter if we pump Alloa and Arbroath over the next fortnight (unlikely but possible) which would stave off his execution for a while.....

Are they known as the B.O. Brigade?

I remember them, the Bed Sheet gang or BS gang as they were better known ;-)

They tried to emulate the HMG crew....but failed...Ray Stewart was dismissed after a thumping derby home defeat, who knows the October gang may be a few weeks too early!!

I must correct you sir. It was not the HMG crew but the HMG Massive as I remember. A short lived but very successful organisation.

Ah, I see now, the end of the Hall era. I've tried to erase my memory of that time.

Speaking of the Henry Hall period, my old man who supported the Loons from when he was a wee boy, was assistant groundsman, physio and coach for periods too, stopped going when Hall became the manager and returned when he left. He liked him as a player but was convinced he would be a terrible manager. After Hegarty was gone he maintained that appointing a gaffer with strong United connections never worked. He was judging this on Jerry Kerr, Henry Hall and Paul H*garty. I wonder what he would have thought about Bollan.....

He conveniently forgot about his pal Archie having been at Tannadice.
