I expect them to give some of the players going through the motions the hairdryer treatment. Most of them need reminding they are shite and playing for their futures instead of the pampered protein shake culture under ferguson. You can hardly expect '2 of the lads' to do that though. We are in the shit and needed an experienced head in not 2 rookies. -

Not only that but they still have to play us twice! Very worrying! The back to back home games vs cowden and Edinburgh are absolutely massive for us. 6 points there should see us safe. -

If it's £35K per season, that is less than £2,000 per league match. (Or 153 supporters at £13 per head) I would argue that is value for money, especially if all stadium maintenance etc is then taken care of and we have no additional costs. I don't know the full ins and outs of the deal to be fair but I think positive strides are being made with NLC. For me that is the way forward to continue a positive working relationship and negotiate for as much as we can rather than claiming Broadwood is some kind of massive financial hinderance. -

This has been discussed before and although the revenue streams aren't where we want them the actual rent costs and maintenance costs of being at Broadwood are not that bad. The whole blame Broadwood thing is all a bit of a myth and an easy excuse IMO. What would undoubtedly help is a decent manager serving up a watchable product that would put more bums on seats by bringing back many of our disillusioned and currently non-attending supporters. -

He wasn't a coach either. He did not develop any of the players or a consistent system of play. He tended to make good signings and they got worse playing under him. Struggling to think of anyone who has improved as a player under Ferguson. Poor coach, poor motivator, poor man manager. He basically had nothing required to be successful at this level. Ok, he was keen to succeed and worked hard at the job but he wasn't very good at it. Why anyone is sad to see the back of him is quite frankly baffling. -

How do you explain the fact that the players clearly weren't playing for him anymore then if they love his methods so much? -

His stock will be higher than the players who have been playing week in week out, that's for sure! -

Flynn has barely been given a chance under Ferguson but would like to see him given a chance played centrally. Think he could still be a good player for us. Johnston and mcniff probably damaged beyond repair by this seasons performances. -

You might be surprised at how the performances turn around if we get somebody in that knows their arse from their elbow. Otherwise not much we can do till the end of the season. Plenty of them I would not be sad to see the back of though. Not sure who is contracted for next season but I would be offering new deals to McNeil, Linton, Peaso, Lowden, Easton and the new young keeper. A few others maybe but plenty to get shot of. -

Take time!! How much fucking time do they want him to take! Picked up 2 points in 3 months and dropped down the league like a fucking rock. I wouldn't give the p***k time to clear his desk. f**k off now Barry! ETA: anyone seriously asking him to stay on should really just go too. Doesn't take much to gauge the views of the support or the dire performances on the park. Sheer idiocy to say anything other than good riddance. -

To be fair, we are only 27 points behind the league leaders. That would be an improvement on the current situation for the rangers. Surely this won't happen though, it would be utter trainwreck hilarity if it did. He has zero coaching and man management skills. -

Even if we do manage to avoid the utterly unthinkable this season, where is the incentive for fans going forward. Who in the right mind would buy a season ticket for next season with this clown still in charge. There is absolutely zero optimism or motivation that things will improve, no vision to buy into. Just a painful slide towards oblivion. -

I thought he managed his last game in mid November. Does standing at the side and occasionally crouching to pitch level count as managing? If so I'll polish up my C.V. -

Can't remember the last time we won a league game so unable to comment. I'm sure Barry was straight back on the bus to work on his newspaper column about rangers though. -

He should try telling a few of our players to f**k up or they are getting rattled into the Frosties. -

It's the managers job to motivate the players for matches and have them playing an effective system. It's also the managers job to make subs, or change the system to try and influence the outcome of the match. Throughout football when the players don't perform/aren't motivated the manager carries the can. For me it's the manager letting the players down. The big games take care of themselves but in the other games he needs to display some leadership and make sure the players know what is required. -

Absolutely no coincidence that you again wait for a decent result to come on and have a pop at supporters who have rightly been critical of the shite that has regularly been served up this season. If we played like yesterday, or the previous game when you crawled out from under your rock, on a regular basis then things would be a lot more positive on here I am sure. -

Jamesy Lawd is a completely unfunny simpleton. Imagine an individual sad enough to keep that act going for such a drawn out period of time. If that's 'comic relief' then shoot me now! -

You didn't just come on to leave a positive comment though, did you? You had a pop about people running their mouths and then being very quiet. This implies you think it's wrong for fans to be unhappy with a run of 7 games without a win, in probably the shitest league in Europe. Or that putting in a shift and getting an acceptable result at Stirling should be seen as some astonishing achievement. Putting in a shift and fighting for the cause should be the bare minimum that's acceptable. Fans will respond to the performance on the park. There was less negativity as the performance was improved. Criticism has been more than justified lately so your point was utter pish. -

Decent pedigree as you suggest and could be the experienced leader/organiser we need back there. On the other hand turns 37 in May and been playing junior for the last 2 seasons so could be finished. Worth a punt possibly if he seems fit enough. -
