If all the club decisions are being made by the chairman then I think that would be a bigger problem. As for your second paragraph, the players that were being referred to were the recent signings and I honestly don't think it matters how hard they try, they are not going to be players capable of winning league 1 games. That our chairman has called out the ex-manager for signing worse shite than we already had will make not one iota of difference to our certain relegation. He is the chairman of the board and whether he personality did not pick him it is a collective and you can’t just blame others. He could alternatively just pick the manager himself and get rid of the board! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chairman will still have the final say and there’s zero chance that Robertson would have been appointed if your chairman did not want him there. I’m also not sure why he specifically called out the new players and ignored the ones who had them in the bottom two before Robertson even arrived. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would the chairman have the final day? If it was put to a vote and three of the four directors were insistent that they wanted Robertson then the Chairman would not have the final say. Our Chairman is not the main shareholder in PFC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am far from a defender of Morrison, but on this occasion he is right. Our performances since Robertson took the helm have been poorer than before he was in place. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must admit have always stood with Rodger as first & foremost he is a true supporter of the club & does what he thinks is best for the club. As someone that follows the team home and away have to say performances did not improve under Davie & last week was really embarrassing. Will see if there is any reaction today there are players that we know really want to play for the club, some will hopefully try and regain some pride but some are just not up to standard. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope players like Jack Brown are re-instated to the team - he didn't seem to get a fair crack of the whip under Robertson, who preferred to play his own signings who were poor to say the least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack has to get a place apart from McCarthy nobody else in the midfield. Even some of his own signings were not getting a start Walliimbi ,Melingui, & Gabriel they may be no better than some of the other signings but have not had much of a chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMac Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Enoch Walusimbi was one of Jim's last signings, but as you state since Boris Melingui signed he hasn't featured. Would like to see John Allan feature his record at his last club was impressive 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 (edited) No offence, but how the f**k did Peterhead hold on to Scott Brown for so long? Easily our player of the season. Edited April 2 by CALDERON 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's great to hear that he is doing well at Raith. He was always too good for our level and probably Raith as well tbh. His loyalty to the club was very appreciated although there was a worry every summer that someone would come in for him. Could be doing with someone with his drive now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No surprize that Scott has fitted in well at Raith as mentioned think he would have had a number of full time offers over the years but obviously it now suits him better. We have not been able to replace him & lack an attacking midfielder now, McCarthy is more in the Ferry mould and have missed Ritchie going forward as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think you guys had Scott Brown, Grant Savoury, Ryan Duncan along with Andy McCarthy last season in midfield. First three are exceptional. Duncan, only 19, getting game time at Aberdeen and in my opinion will go onto bigger and better things, Savoury getting plaudits and will get a move to an SPL club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
