The General Ross County Chat Thread

[TheScarf]

It will kill MacGregor to sack his 'project', but you have to think it's the correct decision.  They were definitely going down with that loser in charge.

[Richey Edwards]

Malky Mackay is a shape shifting lizard.

[Pens_Dark]

An overall victory for humanity today with Rwanda ruling and Malky sacked. Some faith restored.

[Staggie52]

When does a new manager bounce start?

[Mackie The Staggie]

Suella Braverman - gone

Rwanda policy - getting a good kicking in the courts

Malky -GONE

think this deserves a play.....

 

[Sherrif John Bunnell]

Ithe only shame about today is that MacGregor didn't force Malky to announce his own sacking live on Sportscene.

Gute Nacht süsser Prinz!

No doubt the Sportsound pundits will be critical of this decision asking "What more do Ross County fans want?"as they struggle to understand just how rubbish they've been for months and months.

The replies to the Sky Sports tweet are fantastic. This one in particular.

Oh Garry.

[Pete the Jakey]

Coincidence that Robbo has left Caley to pursue other football options?

[MarkPockets]

I knew whenever he got sacked I was gonna be delighted. I didn't realise quite how happy I was going to be. Honestly, can't believe it's finally over.

[donaldo]

Thank f**k for that.

The baffling thing for me is this is nowhere near as bad as it’s been under him. There’s been other scenarios under his tenure where we’ve looked far worse and he’s been kept in the job.

Not complaining though!

“Malky has brought so much more to the club and the wider staff than just football management"

He brought a complete level of apathy from a wide number of supporters. It is worth remembering when he was employed, County we were coming out of the pandemic. The "Staggies Army" fundraiser was on the go, with some folk paying nearly £500 for the privilege. Large numbers (including myself) stopped their monthly payment. Others cancelled their season ticket, and MacGregor just doubled down on the appointment. The club never addressed (sufficiently) what had gone on. Mackay himself never sat down and apologised or let questions be asked about it. It was a massively dark period in the clubs history, and that is going to be difficult to recover from.

He was a fucking awful manager, the club stumbled to a top six finish, and you knew when the likes of Hungbo/RCC left they were going to struggle. The football was turgid, and it never once looked like improving. Partick's implosion was the only reason the club didn't drop last year. For all of his supposed connections down South, County have signed some complete dross over the past couple of seasons. 

10 days until Kilmarnock at home, I'd imagine a replacement is lined up. God forbid it is Cowie, but it seems the obvious choice.

[Savage Henry]

It’ll be Cowie, but I’d take him - or a half eaten packet of crisps - in a heartbeat over that fat, useless racist piece of shite.  Short of Tommy Robinson, I can’t think of an appointment that’d disappoint me at this point. 
 

Anyway, here’s to you Malky.

We all know that the BBC's HYS comment section is polluted by the smooth brained racists and bigots, but it's also interesting to see it in practice...

 

Remember, it's ok to be a racist, because other racists see no problem with racism because even if you aren't a racist in public, you must be one in private.
