What level have you played at?
Probably higher than you so I will ask you the same question at what level have you played at

The fact there’s three current managers going over makes me think they’re not there that long/it won’t seriously disrupt pre-season. Maybe that’s just blind optimism on my part but it’s not something I’m particularly worried about.
Come back to me in two months time when we’ve signed nobody and lost all four of our group stage games.
Do you really think there's nothing going on in the background thought that was what gus was brought in for to help manager with finding players and contacts as far as cup group stages if we can't get out of that group we shouldn't be in premier league plus I don't think McLean will have the same attitude to them as Davidson did last year which quite honestly was pathetic

Callum Davidson burner account found.
I would rather be Davidson burner account than living in your head where you cluster f**k shit in every ones forums where you think you know everything about football but in reality you are the type of keyboard warrior I was talking about your opinions means f**k all to most of us but you continue to spew your absolute crap just as a matter of interest have ever played the game other play ground stuff which I would guess you were the goalie

It's tough. For me, MacLean shouldn't be going away to Romania during our pre-season when it's his first as a manager, although I suspect it'll be for a week maximum.
Maybe it would be different if he was in his third or fourth season and we were ticking along but surely he'll be looking to implement his own ideas and to miss a chunk of the pre-season is very far from ideal.
It's oft-repeated how it's no longer two weeks without seeing a ball or anything like that. Their fitness will be maintained and it'll be shape and ideas from the off. Yet we have a new manager who won't be here...
I assume you know how a preseason works when the players come back from holidays its about gaining their fitness then ball work etc that doesn't need the manager there that's the job of fitness trainer and coaches surely McLean trust them to do that as for our new manager to him it is more important to get his pro license he will only gone for a few weeks anyway during which time he'll never be off the phone to his coaching team there's to many people on these forums who are keyboard warriors who have never played at a high level and think they know better than the pros

He can talk the team up, and be positive, but dont "guarantee" safety when youve been watching your side plummet down the table for 6 months and have zero track record to back you up at all. Lets not forget he was a major part of the staff over the past 3 years, hes not some outsider whos come into the shitstorm to save us, he was part of creating it.
Killie/County, both away, in our next 2 games. Lose both and we're deep in the shit, and MacLean has just guaranteed everyone we're winning at least one of those games. Its now an easy team talk for teams who both battered us last time we played them.
So would you rather have Davidson alway talking the team down saying we are lucky to be in this league or someone trying to big the team up. as for being part of the problem do you know how the management system works, manager, ass manager then coaches the only person to blame is the previous manager who was probably to stubborn to listen to anyone's advice and do you really think young Brown would let macca stay on as temp manager if he was that bad . yes your right there is no guarantees in football but McLean is quite obviously wanting this job and is trying to say the right things to get it he might end up with egg on his face in which case it will be bye bye thank for your efforts now f**k off

Telling everyone we will, absolutely guaranteed, 100%, be in the Premiership next season is just moronic at this stage. All it does is put a target on your back and its not a game, the players wont just suddenly wake up full of confidence now.
Managers can be like that if they can back it up. So far MacLean has 4pts against two sides with 10 men, and a comfortable loss to a team whos seasons over, in his managerial career. And that with the inevitable bounce we were always getting once Davidson was punted.
Im just fucking sick of Saints managers/players spouting nonsense about what we'll do when theyre part of, comfortably, one of the worst groups we've had in a decade.
I think you need to look at some of you own comments in my book you are a total and utter knickers wetter some of your posts I find bizarre I personally would want a manager who is trying to talk up his team than the shit that came out of Davidson mouth if it comes about that he fails to live up to what he said probably no harm done as the way were playing we where going down under Davidson

It was just on the general contact us section of the page, unfortunately it's a send form so I can't actually fully remember what I had said.
It was mainly along the lines of it was heartbreaking to see so much incredible work from Saints since being promoted just being pissed away.
With the sales of McCann and Kerr we were given the football is a business, bottom line trumps all treatment, yet when it comes to a manager who is ruining the club, that's where we decide past achievements and tenure has to be respected. I know it's deeply unsavoury to hope someone becomes unemployed, but I'm pretty sure he'll get his contract paid up or paid until he finds a new job so there are levels to it.
The thing that really brings me down, is that Saints are so much more than just a football club to me. I have no actual connection to Perth, I was born in Dumfries and lived there until a few years ago, I was taken to a game against Motherwell as a kid when visiting family and it just stuck with me, I didn't follow my Dad's lead and support Celtic, I loved the community feel and felt proud to be a very small part of it, feeling like I belong to something I enjoy and being able to get behind something with a group of passionate people every weekend is the best thing ever. I pointed out that I'm confident Saints fans aren't expecting 6-0 wins or for a manager to revolutionize the game, but we've always appreciated those who gave their all for the club and all I ever want is to turn up and have some kind of belief that my team is going to give it a go, and think they can win any game if they play well.
It's really important to not go full rose-tinted glasses on TW, but he was a man I would go into battle for if he asked, his team did the same and I'm pretty sure we all appreciated every last drop of that. Some of his teams were miles less talented than what CD has had, but It's a hill I'll die on - at least there was a plan, at least I could see what he was trying to do. Of course it sometimes blew up in his face spectacularly, but he was trying to win games.
Every last bit of that has gone under CD. We're now full of journeymen who'll be gone in two years, likely with us in the Championship. He'll be gone, the Kerr and McCann money wasted, there will be no long-term plan, it will likely take years to stabilise and build again. One thing to TW's credit was he usually had someone lined up to replace the veteran players, he deserves credit for the work he did bringing on the younger guys. CD would just ring Alan Preston and find out which other 33 year old is no longer good enough for Hibs or Aberdeen and we'll give them a final decent payday.
I've never felt more disenfranchised supporting Saints, I noticed going to the Hibs game on the first day of the season there wasn't any excitement, it was part dread, part resignation and just part emptiness.
We are going nowhere under CD. Hoping not to be the sh*ttest team isn't a form of ambition, and We just need to bite the bullet and get rid. Sure the board might see it as a waste of money, but so was Hector-Ingram, so was John Mahon if CD stays in charge.
Well said that man you are right on every thing you have written

Can't see that happening Snodgrass will still be wanting a decent wage which saints don't pay plus he is not a out and out striker which surely is what we need
