Shibuya Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 If they've got Moretti and Amstel they will definitely have Fosters... and maybe Sagres and Bulmers? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Think this rank form is all a ploy by the club to drive up booze sales among the fans at the new hub. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North British Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Hate seeing the club in this state . Duffy is a good guy and deserved his chance , which also bought the club time to get plans in place for the future . Maybe the club planned the big switch , manager , coaches and players in the summer ? Well results (or lack of them) dictate the timetable . So I reckon those plans need to be brought forward . Christmas time is a possibility but I’d be inclined to change things now . If we were waiting for a target that is in a contract at the moment either managing or playing , then bin it and get the available candidates interviewed now . A new appointment for the Albion Rovers game would be perfect , giving the manager a pretty easy game to get his feet under the table . Hopefully we’d get a new boss bounce for the next three critical games . Failure in these pre Christmas games would pretty much consign us to the Seaside League , it would just leave us too much to do after Christmas . So Messers McIntyre , Levine , McCann etc get your interview suits looked out .... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) I can't believe we may be appointing a fourth manager in one calendar year. It's like Leeds when that Italian owner was in charge he burned through managers like hot dinners. Edit - said sacked when I meant appointing.

Edited 6 minutes ago by Trogdor It is what it is , we’ve been doing band aid fixes since McCall left . We need a plan and I have no doubt there is one . However the roof is on fire and we have to react . Everyone knew how yesterday would pan out . The dressing room has gone , the team don’t give a f**k . So either we regroup in the summer in L1 . Or we stand a fight right now . Don’t know which is the best economic model ., but as a fan of our towns club I’d be in the stand up and be counted group ! We’ve been here before and it can be turned around . Anybody Willie Jamison and co arriving ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 My primary concern with changing manager is that will they get more out of this mob? Having changed manager three times this year, the majority of this squad have failed three different managers. I'm not sure how much a new manager will change the results. I know that's a depressing thought but the players are the common denominator here. The above is not a defence of Duffy btw. He's better than Hopkin but still one of our poorer appointments. One thing is certain, the squad needs absolutely gutted in the summer whether we are in League 1 or the Championship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEHonestman1910 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Falkirk are having another underwhelming season so I've got a worrying feeling that we will go down the narrow-minded approach and sign a load of their rejects when they make their inevitable clearout in January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody was closing down Dunfermline - the cross was almost like a free kick given the amount of time he had to think about it. And then again no marking at all. In his post match comments Duffy said that it might have looked like the players weren't trying but it was just because they knew when they were three nil down that the game was over. But he is totally deluded if he cannot see that right from the first minute nobody was the slightest bit interested in playing. The work-rate was the worst I have seen for a long time. In fact they reminded me of the Morton team that we beat 6-0 on 2 January many years ago where I think Glynn Hurst got 5 goals. That club was in real dire straits with off-field issues and it seems we have some major problems in the dressing room. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wasn’t already at the club, everyone would have been fuming at him being appointed. It was yet another in what is becoming a long list of Smith mistakes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raith1974 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 I don't want to sound obvious but it's not your players it's the management. Look at us, we sign an Ayr reject in Zanatta and he's been our best attacking player thus season, we sign Connolly a Falkirk reject who hardly played last season in the 1st and Berra who we were told was totally past it. All 3 under McGlynn have been fantastic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally true, Zanatta got the usual Ayr club "Bad attitude tag" believed by most of the fans and like others tagged like this Tiffoney for example they go on and stand out elsewhere....our club has the lazy stinking attitude from top to bottom I'm afraid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryMc93 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 If Duffy has identified 3 or 4 good targets for January that are ready to sign as soon as the window opens then I'm more willing to keep him. Appointing a new manager would take 2/3 weeks and doesn't give them much time to assess the squad before the window opens and our players would probably win a couple of games to fool the new guy into thinking he doesn't need anyone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be amazed if this is the case. We will take weeks to do anything, and everyone will get increasingly fucked off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
