Potter wasn’t able to salvage our season but he did spot the potential in El Bak and got him playing well (he then went on to score 30 from open play the next season). The players adored him too.

John Potter was the worst manager in our history. Easily.

If JP is appointed manager I’m sure he will get a fair crack at it here and all the support we can all give , he will know a good few of the players as well so that’s a good start 

He maybe didn’t have the best time in the pars hot seat for the short time he was there but it was about 6-7 year ago or something and has been plodding away learning and coaching since, not a big name or one of the usual suspects and if he  does well might even stay 😂😂

If you still throw enough money at it then even Potter won't be able to f**k it up too badly.

Salvage? He took over us one point behind Morton, and five points clear of fifth place. 
 
He won 5 games out of 17, it wasn't so much that he didn't salvage our season, he absolutely set fire to it. Our worst ever manager and I'm including Peter Grant in that discussion.

John Potter worse than the only manager in the club's entire history to never win a league game?

Behave yersels.

Potter didn’t scupper the next manager by signing a team of duds on long contracts. He then became part of the following season’s coaching team where we skooshed the league (pretty unusual in football to see a sacked manage stay at the club as an assistant to his repayment?).

Yup - it's not even close IMO.

He won 5 games out of 20 while we were in League One and led us to 7th place. We'd have been in danger of League 2 had he been in charge all year.

His reign included a 5-1 loss at Stranraer, a 4-0 home defeat to Morton, 3-0 reverse at Brechin and a 3-1 pasting by Forfar. All in all, some of the worst performances I've seen in a quarter of a century following the club.

Potter is local and apparently a really good guy but he was the fucking dirt worst as Dunfermline manager.

Absolutely. Even Peter Grant skelped part time sides.

Two unconvincing wins against a covid riddled Dumbarton side and a really poor Stenhousemuir team are hardly skelpings...

A good part time side would have made us their bitches, and handed us our worst result against them since 1992... Oh wait Arbroath did.

I don't recall Grant skelping Civil Service Strollers or Spartans.

Welcome JP , let’s get preparation for league 1 underway now 

Two defenders (CH RB)possible LB if Peggie not up to the task 

Midfield plenty there with Tidser, Cardle, Higgy, Barjonas ??? Reilly, Philp,    McNab 

20 Goal striker to back up Austin n Agyeman 

that would bolster us up a bit
