kevthedee Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Even though results/performances have been mince I still expect a good Dundee following for this.I'll happily take a point right now to get us going if we do get beat I hope McCann has ear plugs as he'll fucking need them.

Couldn't give a f**k what anyone thinks of oor Tommy, it could be a lot worse, like McCann or Hartley or Bomber or Smith etc etc etc we could be here all day.

The more times they mock TW, the easier it is to see beyond their mask. Utter jealousy we've got a consistent manager who provides success and passion, while they dodge about hiring idealistic failures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Realistically, this is a massive game for both managers. McCann is under considerable pressure as is and St Johnstone have a run of Aberdeen, Rangers, Celtic and Hearts in 4 of the 5 games that follow this one which could lead to the fat grass being under considerable pressure too. Must win or must not lose for both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly doubt it. He's gone three months without a win and not been under serious pressure. Sure, one or two will moan, but the majority understand that sequence of games is a nightmare.

If you're 1-2 points behind the 'pack' that tends to form then he'll get more leeway than say if it's 5-6 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it comes to pass (I don't think it will, I reckon you'll beat us for a start) then your support would be just as erratic with Wright as all other supports are with their respective managers.

Some would, a lot did during that horrendous run, myself included, but he won't be under any threat of the sack. He's a literal legend at the club and has years upon years of success, a lot coming after failures, with us. There's not a single manager we could even dream of affording who'd be better.

We lost 5 out of 6 at the start a few seasons ago, were bottom of the league and a few Dees were creaming themselves. We finished 3rd and got Europe. St Johnstone don't do knickerwetting like some other clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He helped out with the youths for a week. I'd have been disappointed at the time had we signed him tbh. I don't know if he is genuinely turning his career round or having a David Clarkson style renaissance, but obviously I'd bite one's hand off for him at present.

We'll see if it does occur that you're stranded at the bottom. I'd put money on you being the first to cry for Tommy out, mainly because you're a fucking zoomer tbh.
