I think most think he has earned time to sort out a mess of a summer transfer window. However he has to fix it and quickly. We have a squad that is so out of balance and it is his making.Agreed it is his problem and what's worrying is, he recognised there was an issue a few months back. Some players have had it too easy for too long IMO and need taken out the team

Still no official statement from the club regarding the peado we somehow employed around 10 years ago.
A certain ex manager has some explaining to do IMO.

Has the sack the board brigade got any plans for Saturday's game?
Return of the old bed sheet perhaps?

I would release him purely because he blocked me on Twitter.
During a development game against St Johnstone he was getting a bit of grief from their fans - all 5 of them! Some comments referenced his hair colour & the like. His dad snapped and started to shout at people in an incredibly aggressive manner. Maybe understandable when your son getting abused. His mum joined in and branded them racists. They then sat down but much to my amusement his dad sat for a good few minutes with his middle finger up, giving it to those behind him. If anything this encouraged the offenders & an increased amount of comments ensued.
My ban came when I tweeted him after the match saying that in this day an age such treatment was disgusting & he maybe could be the MLK of our time. Immediately blocked. So for this reason & nothing to do with skill or ability...get rid!There is only one person looking rather silly after this 'episode' and it's not Shepherd

Thought we competed very well in the first half tonight and there wasn't much between the teams. Shepherd done well, despite more or less up front on his own for most of it
Swansea stepped it up in the second half and pressed us high up the park. Good learning curve for our lads though

Getting a bit boring watching Sibbald beat three men, shimmy past a fourth, loop the loop then pass the ball 5 yards to the opposition.
Having watched Sibbs yesterday at closely, it confirms what I've been saying for ages, that our team is holding him back at times
There is no doubt that he would be an even better player in a better team. He is easily our most creative player and you can sense his frustration at times when there is a severe lack of movement in front of him.
His best position IMO is centrally off a striker. People need to start realising the bigger picture rather than trying to keep slating the boy

Since I mentioned it in the Hibs thread, for pure enjoyment and maybe some young lads havent seen it before.... Crunchie doing what Crunchie did best.
Iv never seen a player get destroyed in a game like Gary Naysmith got from the wee man in that match. Felt a bit sorry for him afterwards due to reports he was in bits after it.
My favourite Falkirk goal of all time. Just pity how that game ended. The other clip on YouTube of the wee man ripping the piss out Amoroso is a joy to behold

Looks like Mark Kerr has finally embraced his baldness, going by the pre season training pictures on the club Facebook page.
Post hair transplant picture. Will be interesting to see how his and Sibbalds' turn out

Luca - Aero - Watson
That'll be our back 3 next season to start.
I would be surprised if we went to 3 the back at any point. We might have a number of centre halfs but they are hardly the quickest

If not immediately responded to, emergency breaks are applied?
Yes. Drivers have around 1-2 secs to acknowledge warning

Can you no read? We have been told nothing about signings and why would you care if your ex-keeper signed for us?
Big time Stenny fan losing it
LOL

if I were in charge Sibbs would be fighting for his place next season.
He's our most creative player and he is less influential on the left but he does a job for the team. His best position is just off a striker or in a central role. He was outstanding in the games at Easter Road last season when moved in there
The fact some people are hard on Sibbs is because we sometimes rely on him too much

Has the signing of Graham Bowman been announced yet?
0 -
A creative midfielder wouldn't go a miss for us IMO. Unless Sibbs was going to play in his best position every week, which is unlikely, another option would help

Frees up a space for next season and someone else will step in. Hopefully they won't run the ball out of play with 80% of their touches for their first four and a half years with us.
Not only is this embarrassing from your point of view, it's also insulting to Blair Alston

100% spot onMy biggest flaw from that team is people still not realising Leahy isn't a left back.
2 full seasons of watching him there and folk are content to let him get on with it.
Exactly how many goals down our left side have we to lose before the penny drops
Majority of the teams that played us last season hit our left side everytime and we lost a fair amount of goals from there
He's came on leaps and bounds over the season Luke but he's still our weak link

SPFL now considering making the Premiership playoff final a 1 game affair, which I agree with IMO
However, 5 days after we lost ours and still feeling raw, this mob love to kick you when your down

Aye he is, pretty sure him and his brother (Colin) are both from Larbert
Denny. They are a different species

With our 1st friendly being June 29 in Ireland, when are we back for pre-season training?
Only bloody 5 weeks away
23rd of June rings a bell but not sure if that's when they start. The majority of our squad only had 3 weeks off last season after the cup final and another short break is testament to their achievements

In reality, not sure how many of our team yesterday have played there last game for us. However, it's clear that it was Blair Alstons
A special mention to that man. For everything he's done for us, the goals, ability and his general decency as a man, I hope he kicks on and plays at the highest level he can

Game too far in hindsight. Horrendous start just killed us. Needed to get through 30 minutes. Hardly got through 30 seconds
Agreed 100%. SFA won't change the rules because they are scared of losing another club
Over the 2 games we weren't good enough, I admit. My heart goes out to the Bairns at the end today, had some players in tears

Hopefully Rangers put the final nail in odd balls coffin

I salute Mark Kerr
An outstanding footballer
