SLClyde Posted August 18, 2023 Author Share Posted August 18, 2023 Good start. Get McLean an experienced assistant now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_bully_wee Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Didn't see that one coming, so fair play. I don't think the DoF structure is at all a bad thing when you've a rookie manager, so I wouldn't be averse to another, but it has to be someone with a keen eye for a player if recruitment is a key part of their remit. McLean couldn't sign any worse on his own, mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullyWeeStonehouse Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I’d just be happy with a competent manager and assistant and no DoF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggy Snake Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) That's a very good start. It was a joke Duffy was appointed in the first place let alone kept on. The statement is pish but I don't care much about that. It doesn't come close to solving all our issues but it's a step in the right direction. I don't have any faith in McLean unfortunately but at least he'll have a chance to do his own thing now.

BullyWeeStonehouse Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Gordon Thomson quoted as blaming injuries to players as a main factor in his failure in the role of DoF. I disagree with that but glad he’s away nonetheless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FREDDYFRY Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Well that’s progress at least. Interesting to see what will happen now? Certainly give McLean a chance, ultimately I’m not sure he is the answer but nice if he can get some verbal support from the “crowd” tomorrow. If nothing just to get some confidence around him and the players. Will go to the game now, besides I’m used to Peterhead beating us anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davy the Dug Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Thank goodness. I still think we need major change in the boardroom, but at least they aren’t completely tone deaf. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree with that but glad he’s away nonetheless. Duffy should never have been brought back in November, or kept on at the end of last season. He had one good season and was probably a bit unlucky not to get us promoted. However, he had a freakish amount of luck in terms of injuries during 13-14. We basically were able to stick the same 12 or 13 players out every week. I don't think it's a totally wild idea to highlight injuries though. I think we possibly beat Annan with something approaching a full strength team. We played okay against Spartans but by halftime the following week had three more players injured. It's possible for Duffy to have been a terrible appointment and for that to have been compounded by some bad luck. Add those together and you get rubbish like Wednesday. I can't wait to see what our next step is. McLean will definitely need help, and we definitely need players. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutty Sark Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Fantastic news that Duffy is away. Hopefully this can be a kickstart to a more positive era for the club with all the investment talk and Crownpoint decision seemingly on the horizon. I did think that the statement quoting injuries is a bit of a cop out. Duffy and the board had a lot of time to plan sitting in 9th place for potential League Two football and to identify signings. We've ended up signing/retaining players who are already injured to start the season and not having any solid backups in place, right back would be a prime example of this. I think we'll get horsed tomorrow off Peterhead but hopefully some more communication on the replacement of Duffy will be our positive for the week... IF the board have planned anything... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
