Hughes, Grant, Crawford, Johnston, Potter and Jefferies didn’t. McIntyre? Tbf I feel like Jefferies sometimes did, we came back from being 1 or 2 goals down a few(?) times under him. Wasn't there but Stenny away surely had a plan b. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Blue shorts and maroon socks for the away kit. Lovely. Like the home strip but really not a fan of the white shorts (or white shorts with a Pars kit in general), especially when paired with predominantly white socks. Just doesn't look right! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Johnston's (awful) decision to try a back 3/5 the season after the playoffs contitute a plan B? Of course it was wildly unsuccessful (save for the opening game!) and quickly chucked for a 4-4-2. Dreadful squad that season and his poor decisions cost Johnston his job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure I’d suggested both options on here first. Think JJ and AJ lurked here looking for advice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure it was a plan though, we basically had a squad that was too good for this league and it showed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 The 'put a big defender up front' nonsense must have been tried by most managers. Total desperation stuff. With Hay it was actually plan A as he dropped Brewster for Tod up top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have been worse, it could have been like when Stuart Pearce took off an outfield player, brought on Nicky Weaver to play in goals and moved David James up front. With an outfield kit with "James 1" on the back, so it was clearly planned in advance. And with Jon Macken, an actual centre forward who at the time was their record signing sitting on the bench. Madness. Actually, I wonder if Peter Grant ever worked with "Psycho"? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fordyce was doing tremendously well and unceremoniously dumped out away to Alloa in the cup where we nearly gave away a 3 goal lead. Nah nae danger, got outpaced by John Sutton in the 4-3 St Mirren game. Glad Fordyce has done well since but Morris was 100% an upgrade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
