Savage Henry Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 4 hours ago, NorthStand10 said: I have been told a fair number of the players don’t like Dodds, with some wanting him gone. This is from a very good source. Apparently he also refused to manage the team in the final if he wasn’t given a new contract, I am unsure of the source on this one. He signed the new deal on either the day of the final or the day prior IIRC. This might not be news to some of the Dodds Out fans. That is quite blatantly a b*****disation of John Robertson saying he wouldn’t go to the final if the players didn’t want him to (on the back of him being a bad omen). Football players are a ridiculously superstitious bunch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Malkmus Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Did Dodds not do an interview a few weeks ago where he implied he considered leaving then decided to stay as he "didn't want to let down the group". As if he's Klopp or something 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from a very good source. I was out at an Inverness pub a few months ago and quite a lot of the Caley players were in. They were quite vocal about not liking Dodds and wanting him gone. Edit: mind you, who isn't vocal if they don't like their management? Edited August 10, 2023 by yoda 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 It's fairly common knowledge a lot of the players hate him. We knew this at least a year ago. Mans a moron. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB1994 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 The players and fans may hate him, we play shite football and finished 6th in the championship but he coached us to a 3-1 defeat against Celtic. Can’t believe everyone is forgetting that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodds refused to manage the team on cup final day over his contract?? shocking if true and no more than holding the board to ransom, what a scurrilous little shit he is and it sounds as if the board were willing to get rid of him after that game until he blackmailed them. The majority of us want to see the back of him as proven by that survey on CTO and all the adverse posts on here. I have never known such negativity surrounding the team. Sadly I'm hearing that ST sales are down no doubt down to him I haven't renewed this year and won't till he's left the club 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB1994 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 He will be here until at least Christmas. He won’t be sacked unless we are in serious danger of going down. The main problem is our CEO will never want to admit that they got it wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardle is Magic Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Line about Billy Dodds threatening to not manage in the Cup Final is absolutely wild. Sounds like absolute bollocks of course but clearly someone is spreading that story. I was going to make the argument that only a complete fucking moron would waste an opportunity to manage in such a high-profile match but then I remembered we are discussing Billy Dodds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyCromarty Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Interesting thread on CTO entitled, 'What are you going to do' and worth a read as the general consensus is that the club as we already know is in decline under the present management with the board seemingly willing to let the slide continue towards part time, the communication with the fans is at an all time low and ST renewals are not being taken up, interestingly a couple of posts mentioned that in the past the club would have contacted a fan asking why no renewal, this year nothing which highlights the ignorant manner in which the board and club fails to acknowledge fans. Have a look as normally the CTO posters have been loyal and very diplomatic towards the club but it now appears that trust and loyalty has gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it is, it was red meat thrown down and Pavlov's dogs circled, certainly salivating, probably drooling too, wishing it were true 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t attest to others’ experiences however the club phoned me and asked if I was renewing, before placing my seat on hold for another few weeks They couldn’t have been more helpful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the subject of non communication I'm all for the Supporters Trust who seem to do a good job in profiling the team but I see on their website that the last sit down they had with the club was in September last year, the Trust has also produced an excellent insightful survey which they have presented to the club so hopefully the response will be positive for the fans though I'm not holding my breath on it.............................................................................. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
