We missed chance after chance in both halves and couldn't get a grip of the second half. None of the last 15 minutes has anything to do with McPake as a manager and shouting for him to get sacked is pointless. Much like the last Derby, we played good but missed our chances. Onwards. I’m sorry Crawford but that last 15 minutes is all on him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I would say that we probably deserved to lose today as we were largely shit from the 35 minute mark. Losing it like that though is unfair. I do hate to say it, I really do, but McPake is easily the one most at fault for today's result. f**k knows what he was thinking in terms of substitutions. Byrne off for Robertson was the right call as Byrne had played shite, but f**k knows why McGhee didn't come off for Kerr. McGhee was dreadful in that RB role. Also would've brought off Hemmings for Johnson. But taking Gowser off when he was on fire? Ridiculous stuff, needs to have a good look at himself and what he's trying to do. It's games like this and the derby that make me think he's not up to the task just yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srw Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Taking off Byrne and McGowan, and replacing them with two school boys. Ending the game with three pretty poor wingers on the park. If those two pretty obvious things aren't the managers fault, then good god. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Bliss Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I reckon at a push I’d give McPake a 3/10 for his efforts as our manager so far. Has to learn and fast. Football’s a cut throat business and is sink or swim right from the off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigmouth Strikes Again Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 17 minutes ago, srw said: When does Nelms admit, that he has made an arse of things again. McPake clearly isn't a manager, his tactics are dreadful, substitutions are shocking and he comes across as utterly devoid of emotion or motivational skills. Utd getting pumped, and we cant take advantage again, incidentally, we were scudded by the team who are still at the bottom of the table, even after that win, thats how bad PT have been this season. He has to go. its clear for anyone that isn't clap happy. Absolutely spot on. He's miles out of his depth, the subs, the formation it's all a pile of shite. Certainly there are good players there, but if you have a manager that's not up to it, then you are fucked. Away to get pished. Thank you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnydun Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Gowser coming off was the game changer today. Unless he was knackered. I have so much I want to say about todays game bu can't be arsed because I am so deflated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewing Taffies Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Didn't agree with the McPake appointment in the first place and I now think we need to shift him before it's too late. A half decent experienced manager in charge of this squad can win the league. Oh and Forster can get to f**k. Murder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossBFaeDundee Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Not getting on the sack bandwagon yet, but if Jack Ross hinted an interest I would in a second. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I doubt we will sack McPake but the warning signs are there. A ridiculous capitulation at the end. Personally I thought Byrne was pretty anonymous, as usual, so bringing on Robertson for him I kind of got but bringing on an extremely young winger, who has struggled so far - fucking madness. And taking off Gowser. Jesus wept. Johnson should have been on. He’d have hounded the Thistle defenders. There was just so much wrong in that second half. Dreadful. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarbellaDEE Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 This is a crucial season for us, as everyone knows, the longer you spend down here the harder it is to get out. I think we need to cut our losses and get the right man in to at least get the best out of the seemingly talented players that we have at our disposal. United have shown fragility in recent weeks, with the right man in charge getting the best out of the players we have, I don’t see any reason why we can’t give it a go this year. It doesn’t look like anyone is going to run away with it but the longer this is allowed to continue the harder it will be for us to remain in touch with United and whoever else. It is imperative that we do something different, the repercussions of doing nothing can potentially haunt us for several years to come. There can be no loyalties here and as much as I want McPake to succeed, he is simply out of his depth. Thank you 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dundee-FC92 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Shite. I posted on here for all to see that we'd struggle to win the game after seeing the line up and I was proved right. Mackie - shite. Utter dog shite. Hemmings isn't scoring and isn't being taken off. The name shouldn't warrant an automatic start. Would Johnson or Nelson of been able to notch in the last two home games? Bryne substituted on 60 minutes - shite decision. Forster - Shite. Typical slow Scottish diddy. McGowan had a good game but has proven over years not to be good enough. He'll probably be poor next week in a crucial game against Ayr (wait and see). James McPake isn't nearly good enough as I said from day one. I never wanted him as manager and Im not going to change my mind now just cause Nelms took the easy option. Hundreds of applicants and McPake was the best qualified to take us forward? My arse. We're going nowhere this season - the Dabs result is irrelevant. They'll finish above us. Thank you. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravabelli Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Can’t see him being sacked any time soon as it reflects badly on the man who appointed him and hilights his deficiencies, again! Football is like any other business, if the guy at the top is out his depth and makes bad decisions it filters down and the outcome is inevitable. Feel a bit sorry for Mcpake as he isn’t ready for this, from under 18’s to a first team expected to be challenging for a title is too much. It’s just been another lazy, easy option appointment, a hit and hope with a guy who’s popular with the fans......sound familiar 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
