Guest Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Doubt very much if McKinnon would consider him for this Saturday. I reckon he will go safety first yet again, and try to keep a point (or an against the run of play three points). He will save rolling the attacking dice for the RC game, and hope a win can get us 9th. He is 100% cut from the same cloth as Pressley.Sorry but with respect that is utter shite. Pressley’s side never resorted to hoof ball like this guy has. Farid side was a great watch and the Lyle Taylor side was decent when it got going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on what’s meant by ‘done’. Hopefully he wants to exit entirely, or at a minimum proxy his shares permanently to fans body. It’s the least he can do after what he’s subjected us to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford Baptie Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Stay up or go down, clear out needed all the same. Enough is enough. Id we are to go down I’d rather it was confirmed sooner rather than later (ie no play off heartbreak). Start from the top and work their way down. The only way McKinnon won’t be here next season is if he decides to walk away himself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pressley was all about passing in pretty triangles, whereas Ray seems more lump it forward and chase. I still don't understand how we can play 4 3 3 and still end up 1 man up front and over run in midfield. That takes a special kind of talent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know houston's term didn't end well, but at least with a more settled and invested team we challenged for promotion........and just as importantly for me, played exciting, attractive football. We need to get back to that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bainsfordbairn Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 54 minutes ago, Back Post Misses said: A certain volunteer who works in the Boardroom on Saturday’s came into hospitality after the game to say Martin had said that was him gone. Since spoken to someone else who has had contact with him and Martin himself confirmed it to him. Fair enough. When I read your post I initially thought the timing was a bit strange with only one home game to go. Now that I think about it though, it makes sense. The atmosphere towards the board might be just a teensy bit hostile at the Ross County game, so he may have decided to skip that one and say his goodbyes on Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farid side was a great watch and the Lyle Taylor side was decent when it got going. Team built in a different way. The only caveat for McKinnon was the January rush job. In terms of obsessing about how to negate the opposition, in terms of the primary message being “we start with a point, let’s keep it”, they are identical. Both utterly obsessed about the opposition “qualities”. Pressley lucked in by having Farid handed to him on a plate......he wasn’t discovered by Pressley. Vaulks was pretty much the same. If there is a difference (and I am not sure there is), Pressley could spot a player, but wasn’t too good at building a team. McKinnon probably can’t spot a player as other than McKenna (if only for a few games) and Burgoyne no one he has brought in has occupied the “unexpectedly good” category. His team building seems to be none too clever either. Pressley has pretty much failed everywhere he has gone. I think that will be another similarity they share. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AL-FFC Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 The decisions made have took the club backwards not forwards we need to start from scratch rebuilding a team and get some continuity, pretty sure on the news part with the fan ownership didnt they say they have been approached for someone wanting to invest in the club ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 If we can clear these c***s out and get the fan ownership moving again we would surely have the budget to hose the seaside league. If we cant clear these c***s out and their focus over summer and next season is cutting and running then we will languish there. Emptying Lang, Campbell and those who are fucking the fans ownership scheme about is surely crucial. The fans arent going to be there while the supposed figureheads are in place. Too much damage already, too much potential for more. At this moment Championship football with a board looking to accept any offer that they can get could be worse tjan going down 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brokeville Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 If we go down then the fans ownership proposal would need to change. The club in the 3rd tier is less financially stable. It would be more important to completely remove the MSG and secure their shares. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BountyBairn Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 (edited) If any MSG members happen to read this (I’m sure at least some read it) then please , if you really care about the club then do the right thing and immediately jettison Lang and Campbell. Then out in place process which allows us to move on. I appreciate this is not what anyone wanted, and I am sure you tried your best. However it is clear now that your ‘stewardship’ of our club has took us to a new low. Stand aside and let some new people and ideas in. You’ve little left to protect if the fans walk away and we’re all fed up of the incompetence and won’t be back till major changes are made.

Bairn Necessities Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 It's not even the mismanagement that irks me most It's the arrogance. Exemplified by wrongly accusing the fanbase of racism and refusing to apologise. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ought to be able to pull together a budget adequate to achieve promotion from League 1, although I am not underrating the abilities of some of the teams that may also be challenging at the top of the division.Really the objective of the exercise was to deliver a promotion push. However it wasn’t from League 1 to Championship.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
