Scary Bear Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 2 hours ago, raith1974 said: Interesting read in the FFP. Murray hoping to bring in 1 or 2 more players but if he doesn't he will go with what he has until he gets injured players back. He's kidding himself on if he thinks this defence will keep us up. A CB is needed and a striker. When he relegates us, he can get on with the unfinished business of winning League 1. Looks like he’s trying to rebuild Airdrie at Rovers. Could he not sign one of their centre backs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Raith_Raver Posted August 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2022 I wish some folk on here would give Murray a break. He's trying like a bear to put a decent team on the pitch and he's not far away. This constant carping for no reason has no merit. 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 How long must we be patient for? How many games before we can start to suggest he's not the man for the job? We've already lost to a team that will likely be struggling in the bottom half of the table. If, as looks quite possible, this bad start turns into 4 or 5 league games without a win, can we afford to wait 10 or 12 games to see if he can turn it around? Not for me. See Dunfermline last season if you want to know how that ends up. I think folk get a bit sucked in by his interviews, but actions speak louder than words and so far the signs aren't great. As mentioned above, it's like he's working his way through a shopping list of players he had in mind for league 1 Airdrie rather than an actual championship club. When the likes of Easton has never made it beyond league 1 in his career, its probably because he's actually a bit rubbish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club can't afford to pay off and hire managers every time the team loses, hell, they can't afford to pay off a player they didn't need to sign. The club from top to bottom is in transition and things might not click straight away or at all this season, gusset gushing will not change this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One league game.Who gives a f**k about the league cup group stage. See the amount of premiership teams that got knocked out of that at the group stage as well. It shows very few teams care about that cup. We have only qualified from the group stage in that cup once since it came in about 6 or 7 years ago.So take that out the equation, we have played one meaningful competitive game. And you’re calling for his head. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raith1974 Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 I'm not saying for 1 minute that I think Murray is a bad manager, I wanted him as a manager, however, the concern is the budget constraints he is working under. No experienced players signed, no leadership which shows with him struggling to pick a captain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely don’t mate , think we have all had our fill of negative headlines about the rovers this year. Some fans myself included are just expressing our concerns about the squad, do I want them to lose to prove I’m right? Course I don’t , I won’t just eat a slice of humble pie I will eat the fecking whole pie it’s slim pickings out there for clubs like us at the moment, hoped for experienced proven players but if he can’t get them he can’t get them. I wanted Murray to get the job but tbh I never followed his style of management before just thought he was best available and still youngish. He is taking a bit of getting used to but I will be there Saturday cheering them on.

Had us 3rd in the league at the end of October. Don't need to tell you how that turned out. We are a club in transition. New manager, new back line (I would have kept Musonda), trying to overcome that clusterf*ck in January. It's 1 league game into the season, teams aren't promoted/relegated after the 1st game. Give the manager a chance, I'm convinced he will come good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
