  1. Past hour
  2. No one should be abused at their place of work. And it should go without saying that no-ones family should be abused at their place of work either. However, football is an emotional game, as SK showed repeatedly on the touchline with us and on Saturday night at Kilmarnock. If you have been in the game for as long as he has, you know this, and you deal with it. I dont wish any ill on him or his family. As others have said, we have much to thank him for. But the manner in which he left did leave a bad taste in the mouth, so I wont be weeping any tears for him regarding his current travails either.
  3. First he said he was taking abuse at Fir Park. When that was questioned he decided that it was his family that was getting abuse at Fir Park. When that was questioned he said it was on social media or his kids at school. I'm sure there were fans telling him he was useless during his long winless spell. I'd be surprised if anyone in the Main Stand was abusing his immediate family (although they may have heard fans yelling at him). Kids getting teased at school because their dad's a football manager sounds like par for the course regardless of what team you manage. If any of that was true, then I agree, there is no place for it - but it sounded more like excuses for his failure, and he didn't want "damage his brand". If he had been like Robinson or McCall, and told the truth that he was no longer able to get a performance from the players despite everything he had tried, I'm sure he would at least have had the respect of most fans. I'm also sure, if his family was taking abuse at Fir Park, the club would have worked with him to stamp it out. Of course, if you are a football manager or player who expects to go through every match without taking a bit of stick when you lose, then you are probably in the wrong profession.
  4. No one should be subjected to abuse and threats and I highlighted that at the time he left but his stories seemed to contradict each other as folk that sat in O'Donnell stand and were at away games didnt recall it being as bad as he was making out. Way he left club for me was terrible in way he more or less blamed whole support and to bring out that interview with The Sun on day Wimmer was appointed was lack of respect though that was probably the Sun's decision. Yes there are wallopers in every support. The guy at Falkirk home game a few weeks ago at back of Hunter stand beggared belief. Thankfully not seen him since, probably in a mood as we are playing great football 🤣🤣 COYW
  5. Has it ever been proved he was getting abuse and threats or was it a figment of his imagination.
  6. Today
  7. I'll always be grateful to him for his first half season with this football club. We were plummeting towards relegation with Hammy and he didn't inspire any confidence in his interviews, so SK was a breath of fresh air. He got the results that we needed on the pitch and also put in a lot of work getting players released to free up wages and steady this football club's finances. After that, he didn't do so well, he managed to sign some pretty poor players and he became very indisciplined towards the end - perhaps due to the pressure he was under - but he didn't deserve abuse and threats.
  8. Yesterday
  9. Are you Yogi Hughes in disguise 🥸
  10. Humpey and gropey were rumbled along with the other 1970's presenters 🤣🤣
  11. Good honest players winning second balls from punts to safety - you know it makes sense.
  12. It's not a slight on us, but adding 2 wins to our current run is asking a lot, just based on how this league goes, and the whole law of averages thing, i.e. vibes. I'm more confident in keeping this going than I would have been with other managers (and squads), but I think Tannadice will be a tricky one, and they really need to pull lut a result to halt their bad run, and as mentioned above, they have some decent attacking players. On the other hand, their defence is woeful, and they still dont know how to sign goalkeepers. Also, Goodwin likes a death spiral. On Dundee, they will be ultra defensive, so that will.be a different challenge.
  13. Hope yer 6 wee pals are doing good plus the other two that nobody mentions, Humpey amd Gropey
  14. Stop that kind of talk at once. I'm a BBC pundit and Scottish fans would much rather have seen the free kick put out at the corner flag so that Motherwell could have tried to force a mistake. This playing football stuff is an outrage against society.
  15. They already have not won any of their past 6 games. 3 draws and 3 Losses. So he’s going for 7 now !
  16. Utd’s problem isn’t really scoring, it’s their defence. I think we’ll do well to keep our run of clean sheets continuing so at least a couple of goals will be needed for the win. I’d settle for draw at moment. prior to StM they had apparently never gone 6games without a win under Goodwin. May it be unlucky number 7 for him.
  17. Dundee Utd v Celtic on 17th in between our next two matches
  18. A win here and a win at home to Dundee will have us level on points with Celtic (and possibly above them if we get +4 GD), before they next play.
  19. Just watched the goals again. Never realized how good the last goal was. Started with a free kick about 10 yards inside Livi half. We then held possession of the ball for about 70 seconds, completed about 25 passes, the goal keeper getting passed to twice, pass number 6 then pass number 16
  20. Given that you forecast a 4-1 win at the weekend I will embrace this new positivity! All aboard the Jens hype train! 😍😍😍
  21. Only 9 points from the summit
  22. He’s a charlatan and a prick. I called it ages ago.
  23. I have told ye before......behave!! 🤣🤣
