Deanzmeanzheinz 4,312 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I could have posted this on Sunday evening or yesterday but neither I or I suspect anyone else on here was in a mental state to read or digest it. However its 48hrs on from that car crash on Sunday (especially that 1st half!!!) - so where do we go from here? The way I see it is that the current Board have one last chance to demonstrate they can take the club back to where it belongs. The single most important decision is the next managerial appt. whoever this person is will illustrate clearly what finance and ambition these incumbents have. If it’s an obscure, left of field, out of a job manager then at that very point they should get to fuck out our club! However, if they ‘reach for the stars’ and appoint someone of a certain stature and calibre then it’s game on (but can you see that? That’s another debate for now) i say that the next managerial appt is critical because once again I’m left reflecting on where the rhats were exactly 2 years ago. In that semi we schooled them in that first half with Keirnan, Halliday and Holt all playing!! Fuck, we were lamenting that Forrester was out injured in the lead up up the game! This was a sellick side made up of Gordon, Lustig, Tierney, Boyata, Lego, Rogic, McGregor, Roberts and Thumb - all of whom were involved on Sunday. Add the rebirth of nae neck Forrest and the difference is crystal clear. They bagged that Norwegian numb nut and aimed high. The rest is written out in the last 10 games. A high quality high, salary manager can actually pay himself back on transfer values and European money. Aim lower and you’re pissing money down a drain eg Pedro So over to you King. I saw the despair amongst the most loyal of bears at half time on Sunday. And let me assure you sir, you are in last chance saloon!!!! 2nd Flute, HG5 and Gaffbear 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy should never have been appointed and is another ridiculous waste of supporters cash. Any decent manager will want him gone before he signs up.

Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 We need from them before the end of this week the new manager in place and a guaranteed budget that will get the level of player we deserve We need from them before the start of the new season any sign that they have the wherewithal to negotiate a shirt deal befitting the size of our club. We need from them a sponsorship deal worth a good bit more than fucking Aberdeen. We need for them to replace Robertson with a proper CEO that has ran a club if our size Honestly the list goes on and on sonofbear, Deanzmeanzheinz, Gaffbear and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIRB_72 3,987 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Spot on! Go use that ST money and go get us a good manager. It worked wonders for them with basically the same squad as you say. I'd much rather we spent 2/3 million on a manager than wasting it on 3 or 4 duds. For example, could you imagine what Walter would have go out of someone like Bruno Alves (I'm not suggesting Walter btw). Despite looking a million miles away on Sunday we still can mathematically win the league with 5 games left which for how bad we've been is just bizarre. Though it could be argued celtic took their foot off the gas months ago. The players performed and acted ridiculously on Sunday, but for me the standards start with the manager and we've not had a manager who has the standards we have needed or need just now: discipline, hard work, character & dedication.

Ger_onimo 20,488 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I’d like to think the board were thinking about our next manager, but they appear to be putting all their energy into punishing players for being mean to our current manager. I hold out no hope whatsoever of them fixing this. HG5 and 2nd Flute 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah , I would agree with that . I was hoping that Murty was here till the end of the season because they had a guy lined up who didn't want to leave his club mid season , but that's not the case it seems . Mark Allen should have been in the know about Murty losing the dressing room . At the very least he should have called a clear the air meeting with players and playing staff . I can only hope he is doing that now . HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cushynumber 25,178 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I think heads MUST roll in that boardroom. They have made bad decision after bad decision and that's 5 managers that we have seen slip away, one way or the other, under their watch - MW, Murty, Pedro, McInnes and Murty again - in just over a year. They have made mad gambles on unknown Portuguese managers, managed to fuck up a fairly easily viewed transition into McInnes and then completely ruined a young youth managers career. On the financial side all we have heard is how great the fans are but its been radio silence on investment and/or merchandising contracts. As time goes by they have made clueless decision after clueless decision - or in appointing Murty made no real decision at all. It is nothing less than incompetence on a grand scale.

Agreed mate, he’s the DoF if things are getting that bad in the first team squad between management and players it’s his job to get both sides in a room and get it sorted. By the length of time it’s taking to get a manager in I don’t think he’s getting the job of picking him this time either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
