Guest bernardblack Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Thought Malcolm was a poor appointment at the time, very much a heart over head decision by the board because of his playing days with Forfar.Correct me if you think I am wrong Forfar fans but I would suggest that to avoid relegation you have to make the change of manager now. I think he has to go tbh. It’s grim saying that, but we will go down if this continues 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been unfortunate with the injuries but his teams, tactics, formations are not working ( and a pretty grim to watch). He needs a result from the next couple of games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The board have much to fault here, after the Weir experiment, we went for a fans favorite in Malky, I personally on many occasions sounded the fog horn with this appointment. But it pleases the fan boys on here at least. First - playing 80 odd games does not make you a Forfar GREAT. Second - taking a high flying lowland league team on a downward spiral, to then be offered the position of a 3 tier team, he must have wanked himself to death.... Third - ok, give him a chance, we don't know his contacts and so, so. Well, sorry that has not happened, his signing have been brutal to say the least, his tactic are shambolic & his media (which I personally don't give AF) are now embarrassing. Forth - Guy, had his chance, just like me if the board gave me a chance I would say yes. Fifth - Thank Malky, goodbye Sixth - Forthigham in until the transfer window (while we look for a new manager). my personal choice would be Petrie (not happening) as we missed that boat, 2 appointments ago f**k Mondays.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the injury situation has been the last thing needed, but it's the manager's job to confront these problems and deal with them. This has clearly not happened. I hope I'm wrong but the chances of a run of good results seems impossible with the mindset/game plans of the manager. New manager, new ideas, new start next season. Unfortunately I can't see it being in League One. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jupiter Jazz Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) He's had a year at it now and results, performances and signings (one or two apart) have all been rubbish. I can take getting beat but the manner in which he has us playing is doing my head in. Ultra cautious and boot it anywhere - no flow or plan going forward - how about 4-3-3 or 3-4-3. There's literally no chance is there? Edited December 14, 2020 by Jupiter Jazz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to quit with the 'Petrie' fantasy, that ship was in port but was cast adrift many moons ago. When you see fans shouting to get Andy Munro back, then maybe just maybe desperation is setting in on and off the park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridie Vision Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Whether you agree or not, I'm fairly sure the board will allow Malky to keep his job until at least the end of the season, and probably he'll have the chance to manage us in League Two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbsouth Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Win the next 4 and we are in the play-offs. Lose the next 4 (Montrose the 4th game) deep deep trouble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said I want it to happen that way, I just think the board won't pull the plug on Stuart this season and yes a high chance we could end up just like Brechin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if we lose every game nothing will happen? We need to start picking up points, especially before the Xmas period. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
