  1. I was at that game and thought the buffs were the better side by a good bit. knee jerk reaction imo but we’ll never know. Certainly a poorer side 2nd half of the season going by performances and results
  2. That’s fair enough, and it’s all about opinions but I played and watched enough to have one and you can’t tell me that they have improved under the new man, unless points and performances don’t count
  3. Don’t follow anyone in particular tend to pick games saw buffs four or five times under Gormley Tranent, Pollok, Forfar, and was at Clydebank when it was pretty even until they gave away a penalty down to 10 men and one player sold two goals on top of that, and thought they were a decent side to watch. Have seen them under Aitken three times and to me they don’t look like a team. I thought Gormley got rid of McCalman and Aitken brought him back. 1st division will not be an easy league to get out of.
  4. Gormley’s team pre Xmas were a better side than what you finished with imo, and would not have lost to half the teams that beat the buffs in the 2nd half of the season. Out of interest how many that started tonight were Gormley’s signings ?
  5. I know on a previous post you said you didn’t know about budgets. I do know that when a budget is set for the season it is divided by roughly 40 weeks at x amount per week which determines players weekly pay budgets are not blown in a oner at the start of the season. if your weekly wage bill is maxed out to bring another player in you need to get one out the door if your budget is cut then you need to get players out and can’t get anyone else in. The new boss could have got players out and brought players in unless……. Hope that helps clear that up.
  6. Firstly not related to any of the previous management in any way and secondly the reason I asked you to watch the Cumnock game was Cumnock’s first 3 goals were goalkeeping errors whether it be from a 35 year old or 19 year old makes no difference and yet the manager and the defence got your blame. I watch a lot of games at this level and know a lot of people at this level hence the reason I’ve been privy to information that is not necessarily public knowledge all I read was a manager carrying the can for results 3 months after he’s left the club and in my opinion should have been given more support when it was needed. In my opinion he would have collected a good few more points than the 6 points that have been gathered in the 9 games since he left considering a number of them were against so called weaker teams at home. I also see that 3 of the defence that played last night were not his players yet still blamed.
  7. Good, get it all off your chest gents, anything else ? what about the budget being cut ? what about being told to play certain players ? What about asking for a centre half when it was needed and be told no. What about asking for a goalkeeper when the no 1 got injured and told no won’t fit your agenda will it
  8. Bitter, not at all makes no odds to me whether the buffs stay up or go down but what I did find distasteful was the assassination of a decent guy and a hard working young manager who got some things right and some things wrong and by all accounts did not get the support he needed when it was required.
  9. I left the debate to avoid a circus, remain respectful, and not shoulder the blame on individuals when there was a lot wrong throughout the club. as for the point per game again without being disrespectful what’s the current regimes point tally per game ?
  10. Player merry go round, they couldn’t field a team for a cup final due to previous going ons. Things started to go wrong in league game number 9 on ten points and in all cups bar the Scottish. You crack on if it makes you feel better, I’ve only dealt with the facts I know of. Over and out.
  11. Cumnock highlights are on youtube if you want to watch them and change some of your comments !
  12. Your prerogative to blame who you want to blame but with 60% of the season I find it strange you pin it on someone not there. As for well backed financially by the committee I believe that was the case to start with but changed very quickly hence not allowed to bring a goalkeeper in when requested and on that note the young goalkeeper was replaced by not one but two different trialists immediately after the Cumnock game. So who was it that let him down badly...........
