Given the significant numbers who left when the third went in I'm not sure. I boosted with about 1 minute of stoppage time left and the final whistle went as I reached the car. The collective Boo was inspired given the numbers left. Dunno how long it went on for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most centre halves at this level are strong and steady (Like McGinty/Aero) they don't like players running at them. Dowds & Amartey for me with Chalmers and Murphy out wide. I dunno what we do at the back though. We are going to struggle to win games with the defence and lack of cohesion in midfield. The second goal last night was typical, no-one challenged the guy as he just ran towards goal and shot from the edge of the box (that's how it looked from the SRE). Actually that sounds decent. Dowds and Amartey up top with Murphy and Chalmers on the wings. But we all know he'll persist with McKenzie and bringing Bryden on 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Could someone share the club email addresses? I have the slo one, is that enough? I've written a complaint about that incident with the hired goons and want to ensure its received. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least four times in the Q&A Mathie mentioned the possibility of safe pyrotechnics as a fan drawer. To then pay for a goon squad to go organising a baton charge through the SRE is as good an indication of how sincere any of it was as anything else. Fair point - the youth board were asked about how to attract younger fans. I doubt they suggested that. I’m far more raging about that than the result last night. 21 minutes ago, Trogdor said: I'd honestly play Amarety at the top end. He's direct, strong and likes to run at players.

Said it before last night and still maintain Amartey is our best chance up there. I’m not sure how well he will do, but he will absolutely offer more than Rose who is quite clearly another waste of a signing. It’s genuinely horrible to be proved right, but everyone was fuming at the central midfield recruitment - why couldn’t they see it! Then you obviously add the full back issues into that and it’s hardly surprising. I want Musonda to start, but I feel sorry for McGinty and Stanger with the shambles beside and in front of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Terrace Gazza Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Bullen has never really radically changed things unless forced to by injuries. You just know it’ll be the same back four, midfield with Dowds partnering MacKenzie up front. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A third party security company brought in with sniffer dogs and everything. For a few young boys watching the team they love. We are so in touch with the community though… Most of those boys are there every week but for ones that maybe aren’t as invested that were caught up in that, I doubt they’ll ever be back. Sums up the calamitous reign of this shower, papered over by a few construction projects. Knowing that my £22 quid is used to pay for that shite rather than maybe helping a tiny bit towards the playing budget etc that I still naively convince myself as a justification to stump it up has made it a million times easier to make other plans for the day of the Raith game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuyIncognito Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 This whole sniffer dogs fiasco is an absolute disgrace. If the club do not address the issue by Monday evening I will be emailing them. Hope you’re reading this Graeme btw 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not so bothered with them acknowledging my complaint directly. A face to face apology for the young fan and a statement to the wider support recognising the error should be sufficient. If they don't do so I'm cancelling my standing order to the AU500 club and would encourage other club members to do the same. All supporters should put a complaint in.

Apparently club have reached out to the fan going by what the mum has said on the sre fb. and one of the stewards who wasn't working last night said the manhandling of the other kids was to literally get one of the match balls off them that they were trying to get away with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only really think people should consider doing that if they are incredibly dissatisfied with the way the club is being run, I.E what Blackpool fans did with their owners. Do think it’s a personal decision but I personally won’t be doing that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 1 hour ago, Thumper said: Comparing the team to Arbroath is certainly a bold move for Callum and Bullen considering a) Arbroath are a part-time club with the lowest budget in the division and b) Arbroath easily sworded this team a matter of weeks ago. There are a lot of comparables though said it on here before. The biggest one for me being us losing Nouble / Hamilton and you losing Dipo and then both of us by the look of it scouring the English non leagues to try find a similar player to the one we lost - also absolutely believe the players that were there for the title challenge with us suffered a bit of a hangover after it and maybe same goes for Ayr too. On the budget thing I’ve no idea I’m not sure how it’ll work. I imagine we will be playing slightly less than FT clubs but with the caveat players can have a FT job outwith their football. I have always thought with our crowds we should be spending similar or more than FT clubs on players but I suppose that would be pretty careless in the grand scheme of things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to take a stand and as a season ticket holder staying away doesn't influence the club financially. It is the only leverage I have. The only thing a guy like Mathie understands is money. That's a penny that only just dropped with me when watching the first two Q&As. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine question. I do think they’ll address it as they can’t let this slide, whether they apologise is different though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itzdrk Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Bullen trying to act excited about the performance during a pumping Not seen (but may have missed) any chat about Murphy doing really good work many times finding himself in a shooting position but Instead giving the ball to McKenzie and Reading, aye they'll score!! The boy Rose is not a football player, I'm not convinced there is any difference between him and Dale Shirkie. Completely and utterly pish. Albinson is back looking exactly like the Jobber of when he arrived now Timmins is gone.

No_Problemo Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 It’ll be an apology towards the YP about specific incident and justification of the sniffer dogs - best we’ll get IMO.

Nelson Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 In the club’s defence, there is always the spectre of having to pay increased policing costs if we are viewed as not being able to control the crowd ourselves using cheap as chips stewards. That in no way justifies the behaviour of any individual stewards though. I don’t believe for one moment the club has given any licence to them to manhandle people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
