Well obviously you don’t read the topics either, I said lots of players would leave if Price stayed in charge By all accounts you are off the mark too. New board is a joke all it needs is a simple statement to appease the fans. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they have decided on a new Manager but contracts haven't been signed yet. I am as keen for an update as anyone else but I wouldn't call out the board just yet (which is always your go to position) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it would and I'm not saying he'd be my first choice but perhaps our budget restrictions are not proving attractive for more well known Managers . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically nobody is going to pile in a heap of cash. If there is someone out there willing to do this, I'm sure nobody is going to stand in their way. I'm not saying the chairman / board are perfect but they deserve a huge amount of credit for what they have done since they came in. They have raised a lot of money for the club, have engaged with the community, attendances are up. They have signed some great players for our level. On paper Gavin Price could have worked but he didn't. He should have been sacked earlier, in hindsight I'm sure they'd agree this didn't work out. Hopefully a new manager will come in next week. I think we need to be realistic about who we can attract. It was a gamble last season to spend the money like we did. I think those levels of spending are a thing of the past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s promotion gone already,to get a decent manager you need to splash the cash,so the aims of this board have failed. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can go to the AGM and tell them to their face instead of hiding behind your keyboard. Clearly you prefer to slate them behind their backs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But purely for the effort and enthusiasm he puts into being a Brechin player he deserves a contract, he’s the first (if not only) lad that’s over interacting with the young lads in the main stand after a match. And don’t get me wrong he’s a more than capable player when required. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But think he might be frustrated with the lack of game time 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
