Either we play excellently and win and say that we used the news to fire themselves up to try and give us something to cheer after the doom and gloom from us when the news broke. Or We play absolutely s***e and lose then the players and management come out and say that the bad press and bad feeling from the supporters affected them. The other thing is, if we lose then calls for change in the dugout will grow louder and these fans won't give a damn about finances etc, they'll just want a change in fortunes that a new manager will bring. I may be one of these said fans that calls for change or I may realise that we'll have to wait until the summer so you'll have to wait until Saturday to find out which it'll be It will go one of three ways. Any comment on the undernoted.... "Some **** on pie and bovril has said that JAMES MCARTHUR is being lined up in a player/manager role for next season so that shows the type of morons that post on that forum! Some on here seem to have a dislike for me but I'm not as moronic as anyone on that forum, no wonder I prefer this forum to there!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McArthur's going to be offered a year's extension at Palace, which has not yet been announced. Initial discussions with various Scottish clubs, including us, about a management or senior coaching role have been cordially ended for now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re meaning to tell me being the only club in the UK located within a Freeport wasn’t enough to get him signed and he would rather earn in excess of £30k a week for Palace instead? Games gone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hursty Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 (edited) 23 hours ago, Thereisalight.. said: Meh could see it far enough. It will be a shit game 0-0 or 1-0. Dont think there has been a good game at Somerset since the 5-0 v QP (ET v Elgin aside) The 4-2 v Partick was a cracking game too - that was 25th October. Depressingly, it looks like we have only scored from open play in one home league match since then- Mullin twice on 3rd December v Raith. The rest have been blanks, set pieces or penalties. Obv a goal is a goal regardless but certainly backs up the complaint that its pretty fucking boring to watch. (The Raith one OF COURSE being the only one I wasn't at which is all the more annoying) Edit as per @No_Problemo pointing out id forgot to add that it was home games i was moaning about Edited March 3, 2023 by Hursty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless I am hugely misinterpreting the point - JML the following week against Arbroath, Dipo against Hamilton, Inverness, Partick Hamilton and Cove all had one or more open play goals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richey Edwards Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 (edited) I would settle for this game not being as much of a snorefest as the Raith game. Edited March 3, 2023 by Richey Edwards 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the dry weather since has helped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 This could very well be another early ICT goal then watch them frustrate us for 60 minutes while we huff and puff. If it is another one of those then we really are out of ideas at this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC 1910 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 We are surely due a good performance and a convincing win - even by the law of averages. Hopefully the next 3 games provide that for us. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
