If it’s a back 5 again I’ll be out of KY12 before they finish Into the Valley. Probably means he won't even be in the squad. Can't tell with Hughes. 19 minutes ago, Cardle is Magic said: You're a good Pars lad Baracus but you really can't help being a massive drama queen. A "disgrace" ffs. I stand by it. After the nonsense of the previous appointments, it was, well, nonsense to go chucking out an 18 month contract to Hughes. It's like they haven't learned a thing. Incidentally, was it ever officially announced how long Grant was originally contracted for? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Can’t remember, both grant and the board seemed shifty over it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 (edited) I wouldn't trust any manager willing to accept a six month contract tbh. You'd only end up with absolute chancers like the PE teacher Falkirk appointed. If we end up 8th on Friday night then whether people like it or not, Hughes has succeeded. If we go down, then he's clearly failed. I'd not be fussed in the slightest if he left in the summer in fairness but he'd barely make Top 5 of the worst managers we've had since I started going regularly.

Stellaboz Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 As far as I understood, it was a one year deal for PG. Was somewhere in the early press releases. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was the right guy then it would be more than a 6 month contract. Anyway, I think I'd rate Hughes as worse than Grant now.* *Obviously not. Grant is easily the worst manager in my time supporting the club. In fact, here are the top 5 worst managers in my time supporting the club: 1. Peter Grant 2. John Potter 3. Davie Hay 4. John Hughes 5. Stephen Kenny 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFC. Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 The NW all in only has 4 tickets left. Plenty in the Norrie and Main stand mind you. Probably get about 4k there. Decent effort for an utterly pish season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallumPar Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 They’ve reopened section L in the NW, now that the rest of the stand has sold out. Imagine those tickets will go quite quickly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although whenever I have been through it seems the queues are caused by folk not being able to scan their tickets which is the case at most stadiums when they are busy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwenDAFC Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 It’s a shambles every single time there is a big crowd in the NW. quite a few season tickets wouldn’t work at the rovers game, & it only takes 2 people to get stuck for the queue to end up round at the norrie. They really need to invest in handheld scanners for the stewards who are standing there. Getting there early doesn’t seem to help either, last home game I was at I was there half an hour before kick off and still had to wait in a big queue to get in. Ridiculous when the ground is 1/3 full. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye for the bigger games I try and get in 30 mins from kick off. Just needs both turnstiles to have someone who cant get it to work to cause a havoc. I'd be tempted with so few away fans to allow access into the NW from the NE 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 The club have always been shocking at handling big crowds. Their solution seems to be get in miles too early or tough shit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Can only assume you're giving Kenny a *lot* of bonus points for the Cup run because he was taking us down to the third tier with an SPL budget. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it would be good if they could get all the turnstiles open, see if that works 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcal Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Quite a lot of Ayr fans had trouble getting in before kick off at EEP a couple of weeks back. There was only about 500 or so of us but still took ridiculously long to get in with just 2 turnstiles open. Not sure what the hold up was, we were lucky to have gotten there quite early. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob1885 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 A steward had a handheld scanner at the Ayr game for the NW, hopefully same again tomorrow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
