  1. Nah. You helped keep us in this league a little longer thanks to those 4 points you gifted us. But we helped to deny you the title by dropping 5 points to us.
  2. Well not a soul asked about Adams during the Meet the Gaffer night. If they did then they would have completely understood the reasons for him being told to stay away.
  3. Like the Dick spitgate, the club is refusing to respond. By responding it gives the muppet even more attention. He can tweet and say all he wants but most people know the guy is a fud.
  4. I would gladly accepted a wee b*****d that is happy to get stuck in, win the ball and lay it off to smeone else and protect the defence.
  5. Watched the highlights of yesterdays game. Though they scored some cracking goals we did ourselves no favours for any off them. 1st goal. Ball bouncing around in the box but we have bodies back. Gold has slotted into CB as Little has gone out wide to challnge for ball. Dow can be seen getting back to and goes into the box running past 2 QP players at the edge. If he stays at the edge then he would have been in a position to stop the shot or got the ball. 2nd goal. Little 3/4 yards behind Steele and Teale (cant see Delaney) and player makes run. Simple ball, Little plays him on and Teale chasing QP player and its a goal. 3rd goal. Steele makes a hash of it. Let it bounce and caught out. Little and co just jogging back expecting Steele to deal with it. Once he fucks up no on is position to defend properly. 4th goal. Free kick into box that no one seems to attack. QP boy brings it down, turns and blasts it in. 5th goal. Easy ball down the right. Ball passed to edge of box and Slater misjudges his attempt to get the ball. Looks like he will get it but seemingly backs out at then decides to go for it at last second and misses it. QP player controls, plenty of space and curls in a perfect shot. 5 goals that are caused by players just not turning up. Individual mistakes that have been happening throughout the season. Players with no confidence and switching off.
  6. As clear as day yes. Hence why they were not performing under Dick and also not under McIntyre. I have not said every player signed has been shite but the amount of Championship quality players has been very low. Norey - signed from the 8th Tier of English football. May have done alright but not a Championship quality player. Bird - signed from the English 5th tier. Has shown his abilty to play in the Championship in games and in others been posted missing. Lyon - A decent player but not a standout. A squad player. Nothing more. Also signed in September so behind the curve on fitness Steele - Promising player but L2 to Championship plus a bad injury have impacted him. Not Championship level. Stowe - signed from Toer 6 of Scottish football. Well.oit of his depth and nowhere close to being a Championship player. Adams - a 6th tier goalkeeper that is a lunatic off the field. If he was that good he would have been playing well above the 6th Tier before now. Guy is in his 30's which tells you all you need to know about how good he is. Hylton - A great player for us. If we had him signed for longer we would have been in a stronger position. His loss greatly affected our chances as it was near imposible to replace. Turan - Had chances but offered next to nothing and not good enough for L1 let alone the Championship McIntosh - Done well but without support struggles. Can do a job in the Championship in a stronger team but not in one that struggles. Slater - Has been poor for most of the season. Set pieces are dreadful. Defensively and passing have been weak. Is he a Championship player..... nope. We have others at the club that have been good in the Championship when the team has played well and with quality FT players in the squad to help. But thats gone now. That was 2 years ago. The players we have from then now struggle. Injuries, age, etc have all taken their toll. We didnt have a squad capable of playing in this league. Too many weak points (lack of defenders, small weak midfield, lack of width, no creativity, etc) that FT teams exploited with ease. 1/2 passes and they are in on goal yet we need 3/4 just to get past the halfway line with the ball. Then more to get in the final third if we are lucky enough to pass to our own player.
  7. They were. But all good thinhs come to an end. Players get older, slower and lose that bit of quality that makes them good enough for the championship. Up until the end of 21/22 team our squads have numerous Full time loan players to add more quality to the squads. Players such as Jack and Chris Hamilton, Wighton, Nouble, Dowds, etc that contribute heavily to our time in tbr Championship. After the loan markets arse fell out, a ludicrous Hybrid transfer policy that the management brought in and them ruling out any part time player in Scotland as not good enough, our time in this league was numbered. The quality of player we have is not good enough to play in the Championship. Its all about using this summer to stabalise and rebuild the squad. And finding players that can add more quality to the squad than what have been signed in the past 4 transfer windows (Corfe, Turan, Jacobs, Fosu, El-Mhanni, etc)
  8. Usually managers are judged on the teams they have built. Yes he has had 1 tranfer window to make changes but we all know that was far from a normal one and one we are unlikely to see happen again. The prep for next season is in full swing. Gallagher is signed up, a number of players re-signed for next. With 6 or 7 more to come in or re-sign. A more professional approach to pre-season training, friendlies and League Cup to prepare for the League One campaign. Any new manager is going to have to try and sort all that out in such a short time that it would most likely be a clusterfuck.
  9. You can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink. Is also like..... You can try and make players play better but you cant make them play better. This squad is nowhere near good enough to be in the championship and the results show. Too many individual mistakes, bad passes, slow reactions etc have led to all this. The manager has made mistakes but he has been made the scapegoat for the previous 18 months of utters shite signings and failures.
  10. You will probably get the Switchie end up to the media booth and part of the main stand.
  11. Im sure we can rustle up a young lichtie that looks like him to play him in a reenactment and do a before and after
  12. Will Arbroath down tools for this own to make the Big Fud Dunc seethe or a game to close to call? I have no idea. But it would be good to see out the last home game of the season with a result. Dragging QP into the relegation playoffs would be interesting if you ended up getting relegated to burst "The Journey" bubble.
  13. Also there have been discussions in the SPFL to expand and make loaning players easier and less punitive in terms of cost. Not sure when this may come in effect but hopefully by the summer. Could see more loan players becoming available next season.
  14. Jim had mentioned that he had already tried to get Wales in January but the player chose to stay at Alloa on loan. Gut feeling is Wales will end up at a championship team on loan for the first half of next season to aid his development to break into the first team at Killie.
  15. McIntyre likes to play 4-4-2 and after the crazy injury crisis we faced this year to the defence. His squad will most likely have at least - 2 GK 6 Defenders 4 CM's 3 Wingers 3 Strikers 2 other places in a 20 man squad would be players that are somewhat versatile to play in midfield or defence.
  16. I am happily surprised by Hamilton signing for another season. An experienced player that has plenty to offer. May have lost a bit of pace but can certainly do a good job at LB next season. And very capable dropping into CB when needed so that gives us options if an injury/suspension happens.
  17. Sign a keeper and we have a decent/good starting 11.
