Kylegib 516 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 We were building a team to challenge for the league at that time resulting in the manager identifying and signing better player, being ruthless with those not good enough and putting us 25 points clear winning the title and doing all this whilst being hampered financially. After putting ourselves in front the board failed to invest resulting in the manager leaving, we now have a happy clapping fan media where they fail to ask difficult questions of the club, we then made a European final took in a huge amount in transfer fees and qualified for the Champions League and the board failed yet again to back the manager resulting in that manager being sacked. The happy clapping fan media tell us the guy that was coach when we won the title was actually the only one responsible for the league win clearly forgetting his QPR team are in free fall in the championship. We are then told he'll be backed in the transfer window where we only signed two players two that were going to be starters and in our biggest game of the season where we can try and dent our rivals confidence our manager deemed that they weren't good enough to start the game. jamesy58, HG5 and Bristoe1872 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLights 2,526 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 We’ve built a team that can win at their best but don’t get it done too often when they’re not. Not enough warriors in there falkirkNS, HG5 and chris182 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sassaaaa 11,406 Posted March 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 1, 2023 Beale was at the club for almost 4 years along with the rat and he trained the players daily and we won the grand total of one trophy in that time. Why the fuck would anything change , he should never have got the job. He made all the same fuck ups as the rat done time after time. Clueless line up and tactics and the wrong subs on 60 - 70 minutes were all regular fuck ups. The football we have played in almost every game bar the Hearts one has been diabolical. It was another disastrous appointment by the mugs that run the club. Blue Viking, Jimfanciesthedude, bornabear and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie0202 12,561 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I keep reading that the board have failed to invest multiple times but I don't think that's true at all. Are we not close to the limits of FFP? The problem is that a lot of the money that has been spent has been on players who aren't contributing at all, are seriously under performing and a couple have been in areas which are not a priority.

We have spent less than the manky mob but have invested a substantial enough amount that we should be seeing better returns. The common denominator in our transfer business appears to be Ross Wilson.

I believe that's true it was many individuals pinnacle to stop them doing 10iar unfortunately if we don't get our act together quickly we're going to have to watch them becoming the country's most successful club. If you've not seen it Beale done an interview prior to becoming our manager and was discussing winning 55 where he stated that they were aware of players who wouldn't have the hunger to go again and had identified players to come in to keep the hunger and drive within the squad.

Popular Post cr3_bear 15,022 Posted March 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 1, 2023 It is a squad that has always been able to produce the goods when the pressure is off or we are underdogs in Europe . The moment it has faced a bit of rolling sleeves up and challenging a sticky patch head on it crumbles I said in the fallout on here after that Hamilton game and the two hearts defeats that I could only trust this team if we somehow found our way to be comfortably infront of Celtic in the title . Thankfully the following season all our ducks lined up in a row and that is exactly what happened . If it was a tight title race I would have zero trust in this squad at all to see it over the line. That hasn’t changed . Last season when we had Celtic drawing in the early kick off through in Livingston only for us to drop two daft points later in the afternoon against Motherwell at home after being 2-0 up is the best example of this squads attitude and bottle I can think of graeme_4, GA1972, chris182 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBearButt 3,748 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I was slated on here for criticising the renewing of deals at the start of this season but its been clear this group of players has been 'done' for quite some time. They seem mentally incapable to be able to stand up when the chips are down. What we need (and have needed for some time) is a substantial turn over of players, due to affordability this would likely have to be over 4-5 windows. The board however have sat on their hands and we have scraped the barrel and went with the cheap option at every turn. The worry is our scouting is fucking horrific and we simply cannot afford to me wasting a couple of million here and there like we have over the past few windows. We need everyone to be a hit and to be fit and able to play. Basically I think we are fucked for the next few seasons unless we get significant investment and player turnover HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We now don't have a single player who could command a substantial transfer fee and that is complete mismanagement of the club. In the next day or so we'll get the happy clappers telling us that the criticism has been way over the top then we'll go through the process again whilst celtic win trophy after trophy.
