Could just be seeing what I want to see though. It’s pretty much a “Look, this isn’t working John. I’m going to stay with my sister for the week and when I get back I want you to have found somewhere else to live”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Decent enough statement, although not much in the way of new information. I'm certain Hughes will be sacked, which is the right decision considering he failed his minimum objective. It is however a club failure when you're looking for your 3rd permanent manager in less than 12 months. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're hanging on to people that have been rotting at the club, your just going to keep that merry go round going and constantly chopping and changing. Complete changes right from the top to the bottom required. If that's the way we go about it, which looks likely, we might need to be patient about bouncing back to the Championship, never mind the Premiership, which is where we want to be. Certainly the backing and finances suggest we should be challenging for the Premiership, but we have made an absolute mess of it. Wholesale changes simply have to take place over the summer with a complete rebuild for the next couple seasons. Stewart Petrie has to be the front runner. An excellent win record with unfavoured Montrose, and would get the fans back onside from the get-go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to wonder if he spoke to his old team mate Crawford and if there have been things that have put him off before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 I hope we stop any chat about Pars being in the Premiership or "back where we belong" etc. We "belong" in League 1 right now. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We belong in league 1 because our football performances have been dreadful and its where we deserve to be. If we were ran competently then there's no reason to say we couldn't be a Premiership club. Been a long time since that happened right enough. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree that we *could* reach the Premiership within the next five seasons if the club consistently make good decisions on and off the park. I was more railing against this prevalent idea that we *should* be in the top flight, when we've spent exactly one season there in the last 15 years. I think most of the posters on here are fairly level-headed tbf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just incredibly fucking arrogant to be doing that. I hope we set up a squad that aims to win League One, not talk about promotion to the Premiership etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smpar Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 I mind beating St Johnstone at McDiarmid early on before we’d lost a game and the fans chanting “we are unbeatable.” Some laugh that was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubbychops Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 (edited) Now has to be the time to go for Petrie. The board have failed miserably with their choices. Go for a guy with a strong managerial track record, plays attacking football, done well in legaue one with smaller resources and very popular with fans. They owe us this one. Just fukin do it!

It’ll take a big wedge to do that, and with relegation and team woes, why wouldn’t he look to a better placed team? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
