Could be that they don't like him as well as money situations?
It's possible.

Maybe, but then why have others like Ashcroft, Beadling, Craigen and Robinson signed?

It's almost as if the best performing players have been noticed by other teams and have therefore been offered better wages and a longer contract by those teams. A stunning revelation that is really hard to comprehend.

Eh? Of course the manager won't be happy, but my question was if he thought it was the manager's fault.

Don't take that tone with me. Thank you.

Right, first game at Firhill between our sides, we shall duel 

Followed by a nice craft ale and quinoa burger. I'm looking forward to it already.

I imagine it comes down to wages, which is absolutely fair enough. Losing players to clubs in similar positions to ourselves is more concerning than the need to replace said players.

Realistically they shouldn't be overly hard to replace. Dundee Utd fans I  wouldn't imagine to be jumping for joy landing the striker and winger from a team that barely managed to put a glove on them last season. McManus is more of a problem to replace, his workrate and defensive work so high up the pitch offered a different approach and set up that the management no longer has and a player like him is hard to come by.

This parachute stuff is a nonsense it's meant to help pay contracts already in place to soften the drop and avoid clubs ending up in peril. Not so that you can cherry pick the best players from the league you're dropping into. Although no point complaining as it will never be changed. I'm hurting about Declan, can ye tell?

With Roy at the helm spunking money in it wouldnae matter to County whether there's a parachute payment or not.  At least you know that their spending ridiculous amounts of cash on players that are nowhere near good enough for that level of wages. I liked McManus as he was a real trier and nver gave our defence a break  when he played us but the pars were proabably paying him what he's worth. Surely with the amount of cash County are flinging at folk they should be able to get a better standard of player than that?

Or perhaps nobody has the first clue about relative wages, and everyone is just guessing?

Yeah of course. He's going to leave playing in front of an average crowd of 5000 plus at Dunfermline to go and play in the middle of nowhere in front of about half that crowd just for the hell of it.  Why do County fans not just admit that the only reason these players are playing for county is because their being offered weens of cash which results in their chairman having to pay in circa 1million pounds every year even when their in the top flight.

Seething.

Why do you think people only have one motive for doing anything?

The only reason to leave Dunfermline for Ross County is money. Nothing to do with facilities, family life, prospects, better squad, or ambition?

Did he get a pay raise? Probably. Do County pay more than Dunfermline? Certainly. Can County afford to do this? Absolutely. Not sure why this generates so much seethe.

McManus is pretty dense. Probably thinks he has got a move to a Premiership team.

Why has he not been banned for 8 matches for that, like O'Hara was?!?!

Just answering a question. Is that ok? Tosser

A question brought about by yet another of your fucking senseless posts suggestion that anything that ever happens at the club ever is AJ's fault, unless it's good.

Anything good that does ever happen i'm assuming sends you in to some kind of trance/shock state considering that's the only time you're not spewing pish.

Every single post/pre season this thread is filled with you hysterically screaming about how the manager should be sacked.

You also thought that the best right-back in the league was shite and we should get rid of him before the start of last season, instead keeping Andy Geggan and Micheal Moffat.

You also thought, and I'm assuming still do, that Morris was shite.

You are proven, and quite often you prove yourself to be absolutely wrong with nearly/all the ridiculous nonsense you post.

Occasionally, with the method of "fling enough shite, some of it will stick", something will happen that is vaguely related to something you have posted before, you will then take this as evidence that the endless wall of drivel you subject not only this thread, but this forum to, is vindicated and justified.

Screw on your sensible head, make sensible, well reasoned posts and people won't accuse you of talking pish.

Make daft posts in which you talk pish, people will accuse you of talking pish.

Funny how you only started being abusive when I pointed out that you said Lockhead was better than first team players. You just need to abuse people to make yourself look clever. People in glass houses and all that. You need to accept criticism or differing opinions without getting flappy or hysterical.
