big al Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Only 2 things to say. Is Jimmy really not making the game at Ibrox because he has another job?. WOW! That must be a wind up. and sadly secondly, RIP Frank. Top man and cowden diehard. Very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get the hostility towards him. He done the honourable thing and tried to walk away (3 times apparently) but your board said no. It's absolutely ridiculous your manager wont be in the dugout for one of your games but that's your boards fault, not his. Why on earth would they persist with this current set up?

If he wanted to go he'd go regardless of what the board said. I might be wrong but i very much doubt he's put in a resignation that he walks away with no strings attached.

I do feel for Cowden fans, I'd be fizzing if our manager was a no show during a crucial run of games, regardless of where the blame lies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many jobs have you walked away from without looking to get the best deal for yourself? Football fans have this misconception that players and managers give a f**k about their club when the reality is unless they grew up supporting you they really couldn't care less if it's the "honourable" thing to do, it's a job to them. The board have given him a contract, they either see that out or sack him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowdenLoyal Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I agree with bbpf. The board have to shoulder a fair whack of blame this season. Running at a loss, giving the green light for Jimmy to sign utter dross and now this farce with the resignations/NI job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza81 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Why should fans show up when the manager doesn't? I don't blame Nicholl for looking to get the best deal for himselt but the way he has conducted himself as been poor. Coming out and saying he has tried to resign 3 times was wrong. Then to take the NI job while being utterly hopeless with us. The club should have given him and ultimatum: Take the NI job and walk away from CFC early without another penny. Finish his job with CFC and reject the NI job at this stage. We have nothing to gain by keeping him here and allowing him to do both jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He clearly wasn't, well not so far and that isn't going to change. The other part time teams haven't set the heather on fire either but what I find most disappointing is the amount of bad defeats we have had. Don't think Alloa will lose five or six goals easily and their players aren't any better than ours. Loan signings have been good but the others have generally been hopeless. There were plenty of average strikers without clubs at the start of the season who could have done a job for us. Give the job to Makel and get Toorie as assistant. Couldn't be any worse.

As muzz says, why should fans go to ibrox when the manager isnt? I fully agree with you but surely that's the boards fault? JN is only looking out for number 1, and considering it's highly unlikely he'll have the Cowden gig next season he's probably done the sensible thing by taking on a decent job when the opportunity arose. If it was me I'd do the same. It seems ridiculous to me that your board have allowed it to get to this point. Surely they must have given him permission to speak to NI regarding the assistants job?

Cowden316 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Tonights game was simply awful. No fight no desire hardly no shots and punt the ball long and keep losing it. Dreadful display and I have no confidence in the team in turning this around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza81 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 May as well write off the next two games as we won't score a goal let alone get anything from them. The three games at the start of April are key. Dumbarton (h), Raith (a) and Livi (h). We need 6 points from that before we face Hearts again. Even 4 points won't be enough. We need Alloa and Livi to draw this weekend - if Alloa win we won't catch them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
