Interesting reading Dunfermline’s statement today. They’ve got the opposite problem to us. They’ve just “retired” 3 board members to stream line their board to 8! -

On the flip side I reckon Nditi cost us enough points early season to have finished 3rd bottom -

Queen of the South vs Ayr United
steakpiegravy replied to D'Jaffo's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Agree Paton looked more dangerous when he came on but he also missed a very good chance (which tbf he made for himself) so I don’t think he can really be the striking answer. But Cameron and Soares are so toothless it’s painful. Todd missed a sitter but so did several Ayr forwards so we were lucky to go in level. Todd isn’t captain material imo. Too quiet. If WG does stay on as manager I think he needs to hang up his boots and focus on it. I don’t think the player manager gig has worked, and it says so much that he’s been our best player this season. -

Noticed in a few games Wullie absolutely blasting various individuals - usually the defence or GK- really blowing his top. For me that’s the captains job on the park. I don’t think the psychology’s been right the last few games. It also sometimes feels like every move has to go through him. Makes us feel very one sided at times. I’m not sure what the solution is but if Wullie gets the manager role next season I think he needs to hang up his boots. If he wants to keep playing I think he needs to become a team player again. -

Is it a problem that when we get down to the business end of the season and needing wins to avoid relegation, that the majority of the squad are either loaned or out of contract in 2 months and so the concept of relegation isn’t likely to be the same motivation that it is for the fans. -
He got a proper media job in the NE of Scotland

Doonhamers vs. Red Lichties

Agree, in particular think we’re missing something up front. Maybe if Connolly hadn’t gone off injured it might have been different. Cameron played as well as I’ve seen him but think he needs a finisher alongside him. Not sure we have that in the squad. -

Yeah I was a bit underwhelmed too with a lack of specifics. No plans to increase the size of the board but all board members looking to jump ship. Not all that reassuring. Would have been nice to hear of some progress being made in that area. Have to say I simply disagree that a board of 3 is good as it aids quick decision making. If it’s the wrong decision, the speed isn’t really relevant, and sacking the manager at this point in a poor season can’t really go down as a quick fire decision. -

I think if we can’t even convince the likes of Reilly to sign then we are probably kidding ourselves that we can find the quality to dig ourselves out of this. AJ pretty clearly doesn’t know his best side, and IMO we have several first team regulars who aren’t championship standard. -
Morton v Queens
steakpiegravy replied to Greenacres's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Some were for sure. Some boos too. I just left. Tbh I don’t think you can fault the attitude of the players. It was a bit of a war of attrition out there and we were holding our own, more so after the East screamer, until 2 minutes of inept defending undid us. There’s definitely a few players that aren’t good enough but couldn’t fault their effort. Can’t see this team staying up even with a new manager tbh so I’d be looking to rebuild for next season in the first now. -

To be fair we defended really well for 85 minutes…… -
Morton v Queens
steakpiegravy replied to Greenacres's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
I’m quite looking forward to todays match. It’s not often you get to see a Queens v Queens reserves match that’s not behind closed doors. -
I have a mate (now in his late 50s) who in the 80s put on his CV that he played football as a hobby. But because he just played in the park not for a team as such, he wrote Hobbies Football (casual) ….
