Whether you agree with the term "tick tock" or not, I don't think its in bad taste. Wellfan could equally have phrased it like "time is running out" or similar. He calls a spade a spade and thats ok in my book. I'm not saying he is always 100% right, no one ever is, but his opinions generally merit serious consideration. He is more often right than wrong. AJ has gained some credit in the past 3 games, without doubt, but there are still unanswered questions. For me, the jury is still very much out. Some big games, winnable ones, coming up, and he will be put to the test. Its a results driven business, but I still have major doubts about our defence, midfield, and attack. Questions too about our style of play, although theres no doubt thats its far superior to Alexanderball and Kettleball.

Hodge today pushing forward made the difference and some others followed his lead

In reality it doesn’t matter whether people think his comments are in bad taste or not managers are paid well to do a job & the decision makers won’t be reading this forum & going we should act on that there’s simple facts 13 points from 13 games is not good enough Getting knocked out the cup by a team beaten by Morton today is not good enough people can argue this is better, we’re improving here & here the only facts are points

We have a young manager who has moved his family to Scotland to commit fully to making a success of the Motherwell managers job. If it had been up to people like yourself he would have lost that job a few weeks ago and his life would have been in a form of turmoil. A comment like tick tock suggesting that his position was a ticking time bomb was in bad taste. If you are going to make the comment at least take ownership for it ( I know another shitty modern day phrase). The phrase shows a lack of any empathy or concern for the managers position. I don't think that is really open to any interpretation. It hasn't worked out for you this last few weeks. You may still get your wish but not quite yet.

I wrote “Tick tock” in a thread about the manager, simply expressing my view that his time is running out. Nothing to do with gleefully celebrating anything, or supporting or otherwise the team or club. You’re perfectly entitled to think it was in bad taste, but repeatedly reading things into two words and attributing intentions to me is ridiculous.

Tick tock can in no way be interpreted as a support of the team, the manager or the club. 'Suiting a narrative' is a very modern day phrase that does not mean very much. Tick tock was a comment that was in bad taste, gleefully said or not.

Gleeful is your interpretation of my post. I simply wrote “Tick tock”. But by all means, carry on twisting things to suit your own narrative.

The comparison you made in order to have a go at Johansson, not in defence of Robinson. Fair enough.

Let’s move it on then many point do u think we should take by the end of the year? I’ll go 11

Ditto!

Tick tock is in reference to Wellfan's poor taste post of a few weeks ago when he/she was gleefully suggesting that the manager was on borrowed time. Thankfully so far Wellfan has been proved wrong.

Well it was….which is why I’ve made the comparison I’ve already explained the comparison 👍

Why comment on the Aberdeen manager's future if your only interest is Motherwell? Unless it was the current Motherwell manager you wanted to comment on, of course.

He’s answered that’s not the case it’ll be incredible the switch on here when it’s clear the managers not the level

Hodge was the best player on the pitch today by a long way. His driving forward with the ball was superb and he must’ve covered every blade of grass on Tannadice.

Thought Sparrow had his best game of the season, and if Longelo could find a better final ball, but had to go for Hodge, thought he was excellent!

Yawn

Again I commented because the original comment was he’s due sacked …… i pointed out he’s not performing much worse than us….. people’s opinion is our manager is progressive ( more than happy if that’s ur feeling ) my comparison is results don’t understand how that’s a struggle why I’ve commented on the comparison regardless of thoughts on managers win games - keep job lose games - lose job

Tick - tock ,in this post simply means( I think) ,….”on to the next game”

Not judging by your remarks on this thread.

Do you not mean Werek 0. Derek 1 🤣🤣

The discussion was about a former Motherwell manager. If you're not interested, why comment?

I’m not privy to Aberdeen fans opinions as you are my only interest is Motherwell results determine managers future, I don’t think we’ll ever win anything again in my lifetime ( was lucky enough to see 91 as a ten year old ) time will tell but unless we make some decent signing in January then he won’t last the season. If he goes 15 from 24 for example I’m interested

You sound like someone who has just returned from being used to temperatures in the mid 20's 🤣🤣, hope holiday was good
