As simple as DT23 had CV19 HE HAD A FALLING OUT WITH CRAWFORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY HAD A FIGHT ON THE MOON!!!!!!!!!! In the end the simplest explanation was the true explanation. He needed a rest from the team anyway so hopefully he can get some form back now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawford tends to be very vague about these sort of things. Very rarely do you see him give a time frame, and often it’s only when a player is back he’ll say what the injury was 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 (edited) Didn't look good for Dow and I fear he might be out for the season. Total conjecture on my part of course. For all I know he could play in our next game. Edited February 10, 2021 by DA Baracus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Something that's continuously annoying is the fact that there are some apparent Pars fans who love to stir the shit. So apparently Dom had a falling out with Craw but actually it was COVID. Oh that and a fight with Turner. This goes all the way back to the stories about Noel Hunt sleeping with Mrs Craw and even the Stephen Kenny rumours about sleeping with young members of the Yorkston family. It's really quite low how some people actually can be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VinnyPar Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I posted this on the Dundee match thread but interested in other people's thoughts. Is Crawford as bad a manager as many people think? Tactically this season I think he has been a lot more astute, willing to change the team and game plan depending on the opposition and is not afraid to change things during the game if things aren't going our way (Inverness,Clyde, Raith, Dundee). Last season he was still working with a % of AJ's perma diddies and starting the rebuild, his transfers have been absolutely spot on and I struggle to think of a bad signing he's made (assuming McGill and Bowman were McNamara's doing). I'm not for one minute suggesting he's perfect however I do think he is overly criticised by an element of our support. What's the deal with his contract btw? Is it still month to month? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I think he's improved although Saturday really pulled that back. Maybe slightly off topic and not answering the question but I think managers get much more scrutiny and criticism than players do. It's certainly shifted over the past 20-25 years. Yes yes, the manager signs the players blah blah but when you have good players and they don't perform? They need to be taking more responsibility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubbychops Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I think he's a better manager than AJ but my annoyance with him has been the over cautious approach to games. Too often attack has been a secondary thought. I really enjoyed the way we got on the front foot against Rovers, It's something we have not seen nearly enough of. Too happy to sit back and counter when we gain a lead, also his biggest successes have been against Hearts, Celtic etc when we are expected to sit back. I think that's his comfort zone. The defeat last week I'm reluctant to blame management fully for that. The ref should never of allowed that shambles to go ahead, but I do have to point out that our team looked defeated from the start. They were moaning about the game from the first minute and their sense of injustice led to them not fully focusing on try to find a way of winning the game. I think the players need to take a large part of responsibilty for their attitude. I guess you could agrue that management should be reinforcing that but there were guys like Watson that were clearly heads gone furious about that game continuing. I happy to see him continue to the end of the season, but the time had come now where not achieving a play-off spot is unacceptable. We have the players and the club is looking to move on with the German investment. Mid table finishes will no longer be tolerated imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 He's fine for what we are, an established championship side. I'm not sure he's the man to take us to the required next level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 If you guys dont finish in the playoffs, it means that you will have finished below two of Raith, Queens, Ayr, Morton or ICT. He would and should be booted for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would and should be booted for that. Said it in the match thread against Dundee. Finishing below 4th would be total failure given how shit the league is. He should rightfully be sacked if it happens. However, I think we might actually have enough about us to stumble in to the play-offs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
