CrackFox 245 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 get a grip slagging Bears for questioning why our club should even contemplate calling off a game with the mighty Alloa.Fkn embarrassing shit.Board has grown a set and said, sorry Ally/Durranty need to cancel party that weekend,team is playing! Spells A in the road to Z for Ally as far as I am concerned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trublusince1982 768 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 but he would have called it offand has explained why. You are just refusing to listen. He has said he would call the other games off as well so nobody gains an advantage over any other team. Whether you agree or not is immaterial. He has explained his reasons and said he is fine with it going ahead. The only one bleating are the ones who are desperate for him to fail.

CrackFox 245 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 let`s hear a reply from Ally etc on Morton assessment that Crawford not as fit or sharp as they would expect from a player of his standard.Many games last season we looked more tired at the end than part timers and resorted to `hanging on` in last 10 minutes or so,even at home!

JCDBigBear 10,865 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Yes.No. It's because we are permitted to call for a postponement and maintaining the consistency of our previous decisions.Financially this will hopefully be a good decision to play it, and suits majority of fans, so no complaints.Too many just happy to insult and criticise the manager over this though. I believe he made these decisions because of what he feels is best for the team, his main priority.So because the earlier decisions to postpone were made we should postpone this for no other reason than "being consistent". As for McCoist, nobody is happy to criticise him but results and performances merit criticism. If things were going well there wouldn't be any criticism but it is obvious to everyone that there has been no progress in our play in 2 and a half years. What is depressing is that some people defend the man instead of the Club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCDBigBear 10,865 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I never said it was compulsory, the issue appears many feel it should be compulsory not to postpone it.No it isn't. Your argument in most of your posts is that there is a rule which we can use if we want and because we have used the rule before we should use it again (whether or not we need to use it). If that sounds daft it is because it is daft. We will have 1 player out on international call up, that we would feature in the team under normal circumstances. You are in a minority (possibly of 1) whereby you think we should call off the game because :A) there is a rule which says we can.andB) we have used the rule before.You have given no consideration to the following:A) we have no need to call the game off as we have a squad sufficient to beat Alloa without the player in question.B) we would lose significant income if we moved the game.C) many of our fans would be seriously inconvenienced by a change in date.D) we could put Hearts under some pressure should we win in our game which kicks off earlier.I actually think that your "argument" is not based on anything other than your love of McCoist as our manager.
