And we can't beat them at all right now. Weird thing to laugh about.

You a crash barrier?

Intae him m8, I've had my suspicions about that wee @ForeverAndEver bastard for a while now.

Crash barrier is harder to type than tarrier 

[Blue72 1,169]

Just saw some of the comments in that sky sports piece - doubling down on ‘higher level’ stuff - whether he thinks it or not, Gio obviously a bit clueless about how these comments would be received, we’re not Brentford

Crash barrier is more fun though, or Shettleston Harrier.

Absolute tinpot mentality and it’s transferred to the players.

It didn’t need transferred to the players, it’s always been there.

That's a horrendous stat considering we had only conceded 13 goals in an entire league season prior to his arrival.

For perspective 32 of those goals conceded have been in Europe.

The PPG stat also includes European and cup games too which is daft and misleading.

Keep the zero

I can’t be bothered looking it up but I wonder how many times we’ve achieved that under GVB.  Given that this is his mantra, it’s quite shocking how bad we are at actually doing it.

You would think that he may have noticed we’re actually crap at defending along the way.

 But I’m not entirely sure that’s the case.

[LegendofCoop 17,481]

Bored. Coming up with scenarios to pass the day. 

Wonder if sacking him while in his first 12 months of contract would result in a higher pay off? 

Sacked in the morning.....?

I see bbc scotland football are running an article on his first year?  like they give a fuck, too busy  drooling over the fat prick of the east

With the help of wiki I deduced that he’s managed us for 68 games, we’ve kept clean sheets in 28 of them and conceded in the other 40.

That would ultimately depend on the circumstances for example the squad that Gio took over certainly wasn't miles behind so he really should be challenging better than he has done.

Squad had just won the league, without being beaten. Ideally we'd have added to that talent pool and consolidated.

We didn't have a level footing with celtic, they were actually further behind and regressing.

Any manager coming in to that set up, and failing two leagues in a row, should go.

The standards are back. That's one of them imo.
