Unless it’s a personal level, I work with folk I like, they are nice people but they are fucking hopeless at their work. I’d be sad to see them go but from a business point of view, they should be emptied. Half of them were probably bought a pint by him In the hub and saw him as a good guy. Some folk, like Wattoo couldn’t see past us finishing second without acknowledging the bigger picture. There didn’t seem to be a recovery unless we signed a 30 goal a season forward to dig him out a hole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcal Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I really dislike the rhetoric from some of the dafties in our support. "What to supporters expect?" "We're not a big club" "Expectations from some are ridiculous" "Some folk seem to forget where we were" The idea that because we are a small club that has had darker days than this, we should just accept runs of 1 win in 11? From our last 45 home league games we've won 14. We've been awful to watch for a lot longer than just this season - but not to worry, that's just the way it is. Gees a break. The next appointment simply has to get things going. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eez-eh Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I’d love for it to be McCall but it won’t happen. He’d have an aneurysm when Mathie explained our recruitment “process” to him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact it was ridiculous was (I thought) the whole point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumper Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Pretty sure the abuse being referred to is e.g. people accosting him in the street, and not mocking his body warmer on a forum. BGM is an objectively funny nickname anyway. 7 minutes ago, eez-eh said: I’d love for it to be McCall but it won’t happen.

Would genuinely love to know where people get this idea that Glendinning is some sort of shadowy Jorge Mendes character who has the club wrapped around his little finger for the sinister purpose of getting wingers from Rushden & Diamonds a two year contract in the Scottish Championship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motley123rock Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I take a men’s mental health group in Monday in Ayr. I was also asked to appear in the video last year we put out along with Morton. Hurling constant abuse by whatever means , private contact or on the terraces , does have an affect on those you direct it at. Players , particularly young ones will always be on social media. I know from the group I take , one guy was getting abuse via various platforms from an individual to the point where he nearly took his own life. We all love our club , we are all passionate about our team BUT before your decide to tell players , managers what you think of them just think about the affect it may have them. Good luck Lee Bullen and thanks for your efforts unfortunately it was time for you to go. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrTroopMajor Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Just made the mistake of venturing onto Facebook. 'Hopefully the Bullen haters are happy now' etc etc. Some people are so utterly moronic. In football, there comes a time when a managerial change is needed and that time is now. Voicing this opinion doesn't equate to being a 'Bullen hater' nor does it constitute 'abuse'. I'm sure there has been some abuse that was too far, however I agree that it was far more toxic at the end of Hopkin's reign. What I've seen recently was pure apathy and boredom. As others have said, I would love to know exactly what depths we need to plumb in this division before these people realise that Bullen's time was up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumper Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 For what it's worth I think Dodds is the most likely choice if they don't go with an interim. Not exactly inspiring, but at the same time it's not John Hughes and thus immediate guarateed relegation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Just buy McCall out his contract. I'm sure it'll only be a few buttons anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
