I am not convinced. After match thoughts from JMac. Defo not inspirational. No chance Mikey here with him at the helm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokeyJoe Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 We need to bin jim after ayr next week. If he stays on we will literally lose every player out of contract this summer can’t see any of them wanting to stay on and I don’t blame them. Fans will drop off significantly too which is expected dropping a league but with jim remaining also 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reilly Hardly played,been injured most of the time,but good when he has played. If you had asked every Arbroath fan before Jim got appointed,not one person mentioned his name,he came out of knowhere,and I was like most Arbroath fans, wouldn't be my choice but the board have appointed him,so we have to get behind him,even though he was left with a mess by Dick.Things have not worked out so time for a change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cove and now Arbroath surprised guy managed to bag two decent jobs after being out the game for about 3/4 years. not sure who was linked with the job but surely a young up and coming manager should have been priority 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecto Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Am quite confident that whoever finishes 9th is joining us in League1, pity the likely candidate is Caley, a slim chance it’s Queens, both who have an appalling away support 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timlichtie Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Article in the Courier today making it clear that Jim McIntyre has the confidence of the Board and will lead us into next season. He outlined his vision for the L1 campaign which includes a purely part time squad. At least the contentious hybrid approach has been binned. Can’t think many will argue with that. If he’s going to succeed then the fans need to be onside. I’d hope that there will be some significant engagement like a Q and A session before the end of the season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going fully part time will thin the squad out I suppose, making my question above a bit obsolete in terms of players staying. Are you guys really not wanting JMac next season? Maybe giving him a chance to sort things out will be more cost effective? Edited April 8 by Wacky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read back a few pages between Wednesday last week and Sunday. There is absolutely no way he does what he does if that dressing rooms behind the manager.

Hope so but so far he hasn't engaged with the supporters at all as far as I recall. A Q&A would definitely let the fans know what his and the clubs plans are and maybe get some onside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFC360PUNK1320 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Sorry but nothing has convinced me that McIntyre is the man to lead the Red Lichties next season and i fear we are going to lose the core of our experienced loyal players, (Gaston, Ricky, Stewart, Hammy, Gold, McKenna etc) and also a lot of fans i have spoken to will not renew their season tickets as they have no confidence in JMc. I repeat again no enthusiasm from the touchline or pre and post match interviews, no interaction with the fans in the Hospo or Boardroom so like in any newish job it looks to me like AFC and McIntyre do not look like a good match, this happens in any walk of life. McKenna took a bit of stick for last week but at least he obviously cares for our club. Cut our loses now, speak to the players we want to keep next season to get their views and take it from there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
