Dicks strategy, join club, sign expensive players, have some success, success falls, money all gone, blame players, fans ,board etc, get sacked, get new club, restart.

The Silence of the Fans

Will the Loons Lucky Lotto ever be won?

I've tried standing or sitting in different areas of Station Park and also tried watching away games from different viewing points and have just realized that I've been basically watching the same game all season. I wonder if changes could be seen from the top of the Mert roof ?

I'm afraid that what has happened has been seen too many times before. Money coming into a club which is drying up, a manager who demands to overspend and is allowed to before he is found out. Ideas above their station for a relatively small club and fans that jump on the bandwagon until wins dry up. Enjoy the ride that you have had but get real in Div.1.

A very reasonable,sympathetic and considered post. At the end of the day, team management and Directors can only do so much with the cards they are given. Supplying a better hand is down to towns supporting their local team at the turnstiles. Cowdenbeith, Berwick, etc., clearly didn't.

Lots of praise quite rightly for every player last night but the Manager cannot be forgotten. Brought a mix of young and not quite so young, mainly local players, got them fit and playing together as any Forfar team for many years.

Oh dear, time Dick moved on again.

The slide continues

The slide continues, as Dick always says " getting sacked always follows getting hired"

Agree fully, an absolute mess caused by premier clubs with no thought for others and 'LL directors with pound signs in their eyes. Stop the premier reserve teams, save money, and expect others to fix the problem of giving their players games.

Rubbish! It's "minnow" part time Clubs that have worked hard to meet the required standards expecting others to do the same rather than commence a general decline.
