Loon From Outta Toon Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Let’s be clear here we have players in the squad capable of improving our league position. we just need a better manager in place who actually knows what he’s doing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the club actually willing to make that change though? And if they do, will they bring in the right replacement or just go for the cheap option again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With our current decision makers we would still have Malcolm at the helm. I can’t see them doing anything other than backing Irvine all the way ( to the Highland League?). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably give it to Harkins with Irvine as his assistant 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As horrific as it sounds but I don't think so. Dumbarton are top of the league so the board will view this inevitable loss as a free hit. Mind you, losing the L2 relegation playoff to Brechin would be viewed as a free hit by the board too - "oh, it's a local Derby, you can't judge a whole season against a local rival" or some nonsense along those lines 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time we lose to a team above us, will that be a classed as a free hit then? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fafc1885 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Is the Community Trust still a part of the club or what has happened there? Other clubs have set ones up after us and seem to be doing very well meanwhile from the outside looking in, ours seems to be chaired by someone who doesn’t seem to really have a clue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Community trust seem ok from my perspective. I know that it was only this season they made full time appointments, but they are running lots of activities through the week for different age groups, as well as holiday camps for kids. I think they might also be hamstrung by the Club Board and what they will allow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the wee fan zone area My theory is alot of them weren't too fussed about being there in the 1st place. The bigger worry is the group of teenagers who I've seen home & away for quite some time have seemingly given up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the wee fan zone area They were invited up in their squads last season, this season the squads take turns providing ball retrieval technicians (I don’t think we’re allowed to call them ball boys anymore ), my younger son and most of his teammates are there anyway. 15 hours ago, TheClosingArguement said: The bigger worry is the group of teenagers who I've seen home & away for quite some time have seemingly given up. My elder laddie was the “drummer boy” last season, the drum is gathering dust in my house, he and some of his pals still go but don’t feel like making a noise 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofixedability Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Going by the club and the happy clappers on Facebook yesterday was a turning point. Not so convinced myself, to do anything we will have to create and score chances, no evidence this squad have that in them at all. This Saturday against East Fife is crunch time IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
