But what did he do that broke this code of conduct? That’s what we’re asking you. Were there any personal attacks? Was he threatening anyone? Or was it just a typical long incoherent rant, which happens every week and hasn’t been an issue until yesterday?

The tone of the rant was aggressive. Read the code of conduct. It’s pretty simple you can’t act like that in this day and age.

Where does this mention ‘ranting with an aggressive tone’? This all sounds pathetic to me. Fan gets frustrated, after board state ambition of promotion and challenging for title, appointing a serial loser as manager and seeing us get hammered by a part time team at home. Said fan vents frustration in an incoherent rant, without personally attacking anyone. Chairman can’t accept that he’s made a total arse of it and tries to have said fan removed from stadium, despite hundreds (if not thousands) of other fans around the stadium voicing frustrations.

The issue seems to be that he was sat too close to the directors box to criticise the club. IMG_2402.jpg

That’s nonsense. He over stepped the mark with his outburst. The main stand is full of young kids. They shouldn’t have to witness that sort of behaviour. By all means vent your frustration, but not like that.  


Go to the cinema if you don’t like to hear language or anger in a crowd . It’s a passionate sport. We’re paying good money for so called “entertainment” £34 quid I spent on tickets and £55 in the club shop for the wee fella. I was fuming with that display and I was absolutely livid as well. You can’t blame people for getting in to these sort of states.

He'd have got away with it in the North West, atmosphere turned very poisonous at 3 nil [emoji23]


As soon as the 3rd went in everyone started singing “Yer getting sacked in the morning” 🤣 Peter Grant has totally lost the fans. It’s simply a matter of time. No way back from this. We’re probably out of the title race already.

Racism, bigotry, homophobia etc yes. Unacceptable in 2021

Ranting and raising your voice about horrific running of football affairs at the the club. Nah. It's pathetic that somebody is offended by that. Nothing to do with 2021. 

McArthur is being a twat in this instance. He needs to take the stick on the chin for his awful decision to appoint that chancer

I'm looking forward to Grant's post match interview. He's less than capable of not saying "more than capable" multiple times to camera and talks only in cliches from start to finish. He clearly has no idea what's going on or how to fix it - the parallels to our horror Gary F Locke experience are alarming.

We've conceded 8 league goals in 3 games, there's no run of games in this league where that's acceptable. This is not going to come good, get fucking rid.

It’s actually getting worse each game as well. It’s the complete opposite than we should expect. It’s not just that it’s not clicking, it’s not just taking time for the players to adapt. It just isn’t working and the manager seems far too happy to blame everyone but himself.

He seems to enjoy his comfy seat in the dugout though. Can’t ever be bothered getting out his seat to try and sort things during the match. No leadership on the park. No leadership in the dugout.

His signings have been poor and his management is bizarre. His team selection is odd and he seems determined to keep playing guys out of position, for no obvious reason. He spent the entirety of pre season and the league cup group stage, getting Dom Thomas used to playing in the middle of midfield. At half time yesterday, he then brought on Thomas for Pybus. This saw him put Thomas out wide and move Dow into the middle, for the first time. If he wanted to play someone else in the middle of the park, why didn’t he bring on one of the 2 central midfielders he had on the bench? To make it worse, he then complained post-match about having to rely on Dow/Kennedy when they aren’t fit enough. He had Thomas on the bench and 2 central midfielders, but argues that he had no choice but to play Kennedy and Dow for so long.

He seems convinced Wighton is a midfielder. Brought him on (not for the first time) to play in midfield. Then with minutes left, brought on Cole for Todorov and put Wighton up front. The guy doesn’t have a clue.

We seem to be really easy for opposition to play against and the manager doesn’t have any idea how to sort it.

When did he have the fans to lose them?

Clubs aiming to get promoted don’t hire Stevie Crawford and Peter Grant. Simple as that.

Problem with Craw was that we won 1 away game all season and played shitbag cowardly football for the majority of the season. He was a crap appointment too.

Now the used car salesman has us harping back to those days.  Just bad decision after bad decision. Spunking good budgets every season. 

It comes from the top and I refuse to accept that we can't do better than this.

If the German's want their investment to work, then they need to freshen things up at board room level. We need to look at who is offering value, and who's the excess baggage. The decision making on football matters is abysmal and any review must start there.   It's not just managerial appointments. I just wonder who's going to build a plan for the youth academy and make that work? It's one thing building a facility and spending huge amounts of money, but if you don't have people with the footballing knowledge to make it a success, then it's just more wasted cash.

Looking at that picture just makes me harp back to the days of Pars players with a bit of heart and desire to be successful.

The pea hearted footballers that we get lumbered with in the modern day just makes me want to greet.

It really is a different club now.  Players that can't/won't tackle. 4th place finishes deemed a success. Baffling managerial appointments made on a whim. Fans that get offended by folk raising their voice. In name, we are the same club but under the surface, we are a pale shadow of the club we once were.

Would be nice if we actual.opened the job up for aplicants and then actually interviewed a number of candidates.Something we've not done in over 6 years.

Just wonder if balancing the day job and the Pars job makes interviews a work intensive pain in the arse for the board.

Think somebody who's got a bit more time on their hands would put a bit more effort into appointing a manager.

Sure the new owners are all retired, so maybe a bit more professionalism shown next time. Might be an upgrade on taking your good pal Mike Mulraney's hand me downs as an easy option.
