I kind of thought that statement would come back and bite me on the arse, the curse of a bad memory. I can't say I recall a couple of these players having been away then returning, let alone being as good as they had been their first spell, which is really the point of the exercise. (It also comes down to your personal definition of "very few" ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenacres Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Yet another defeat but the boys gave him everything can hear him now . It was always going to be difficult with the poor squad he inherited from WG but I really expected him to at least make a slight improvement but we are no better than when WG was manager. Marvin talks a very good game but doing it for real is a different matter . -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slipmat Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 If these were on a coupon we'd collect every week: A supposedly winnable game which if we do win sees us make ground on several teams above us which we chuck and end up further adrift? Tick. Murray to inexplicably start and get at least an hour before inevitably being hooked? Tick. Hendrie to do something daft which ends up costing us a goal? Tick. On at least one occasion lose a goal within a minute of making changes? Tick. Heads go down immediately after going behind and end up on the end of a drubbing? Tick. An accumulator on all of the above would have short odds but I'd risk it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have too many of a similar mould which is why we get these drubbings. The second goal is our throw in in their half, 20 seconds later with them not even having to really do much the ball is in our net. Awful!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that's what he'll say. It's not really been his style thus far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is absolutely rancid, a truly awful absolutely gutless footballer. I think that he'll be one of those players who will look good in training. Small sided games with lots of neat flicks and tricks. Unfortunately, real matches on big pitches involves athletic ability and effort, which I don't think he has or ever will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what you wanted Marvin to say really. He was stuck with what he'd got for this season. He could hardly come out and say "they're all shite" and "not good enough" as they would then have downed tools big time for the rest of the season. He had to be positive and try to motivate what he had. His big challenge was always going to be the re-build for next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALOREBURNE Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Kelty Hearts chairman was in the social club before the game collecting glasses and chatting with fans. We see Hewitson after the game and he shrugged his shoulders and couldn’t give us the time of day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priti priti priti Patel Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Mad that some are now turning on Bartley. Yeah he talks well in front of the press but why hold that against him? There has definitely been improvement in the squad, tempo and style of play since he came in. No process is ever 100% smooth sailing though. There will always be bad days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No process is ever 100% smooth sailing though. There will always be bad days. I think turning on him at this stage is indeed mad. And you're right - people seem to be damning him for being articulate. I think it's a stretch to say there's been clear evidence of improvement though. We really will need to wait until next season to judge. It feels like we've been praying for each season to end for ages. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I suspect it's mostly frustration post match after a really poor 2nd half display. I think most folk realise we can't really judge Bartley until it's his own squad for next season. Too many of the current group aren't good enough and Bartley inherited a gutless bunch. I'd certainly say the new keeper and Brydon are an upgrade on the players they've replaced.
