Lumpin Feck! I am as gutted as the next person over the result last night but it's really hard to believe some of the comments on here. Of course McCall has weaknesses, of course he makes bad decisions, of course we have fkd up some games but keep it in perspective the results over the past few years have been almost unbelieveable to such an extent that I think that we are developing somewhat of an "old firm like" complex. How good or bad is he ? Only fair comparison would be to look at results for him and previous managers. Games played( Cups and League ) : Won lost tied How does his percentage compare to other managers? I don't know but I would wager he has to be in the top 3 of our managers all time. Who would come in and do better? As for change of direction, being relaistic, from the past 3 years the only change of direction is going to be down the way. "The deciding factor for me though is the long running serial weaknesses which he has been unable or unwilling to address. We all know they include a leaky defence, an imbalanced midfield and latterly poor goalkeepers" I think he addressed it by finishing best of the rest for the past 3 years :-)

Tough call. I would say normally that weaker teams have best chance when they park the bus and hit on the break. So if they do open up and go for attack that may suit us better.

id have him back for a regular wage

I'm hoping the plan is to beat this mob in Iceland and then get Ojamaa back here for the next round.

Although I think away form being good is somewhat based on the expectation of the home team attacking us. They have no real incentive to attack.

I don't know how I feel about this upcoming game. One minute I am full of confidence that we will just brush them aside then the next minute I'm dreading the game thinking what a downer it wil be to get put out by a semi pro team. Roll on Thursday so I can get past this!!!!

I've always found the tactic of scoring more goals than your opponent to be rather successful

I seen him play for us as keeper and as right back. He was very young when he played his first game for us. I am thinking about 17 or 18. Altohugh I could be mistaken as it was a long time ago. I think we signed him straight from school Lanark Grammar.

Keith McRae fair right back as well !

The word "incredible" is very fitting but yet at the same time, for on here, the word normal comes to mind

Maybe other clubs don't rate him as highly as we do? Obviously his current club falls into that category.

I think, for me, that the most annoying/dissapointing thing last night was the fact that despite being aware of our downfall in the past we end up getting done with the same old sucker punch again. Game almost done, we didn't need to throw bodies up for the corner, that's the first ,mistake. we should have been pissing about in the corner with the ball to make sure we held our lead and seen the game out with a victory. Secondly, since he was up there, first thing Ramsden should be doing ( and any one else in that fckn box) is hauling their arse back between the ball and our goal when they broke out. We did get some bodies back but ended up with 3 players stalling around 1 of their players instead of getting between the ball and the goal. Unfortunately I think we are not learning our lessons well enough.

Exactly! McCall should have done a Holland and Sub'd in Gunnar for Dan on the last pernalty but he didn't. Fkn ridiculous SACK HIM!

OK WTF do I know!!!

i Haven't seen Law but I think I would ahve went with McHugh to start with.

whats BTTS ?

I think it got renamed....from "Motherwell in europe this season"

page 36 ya lazy cnt Edit: Sorry that could be blind

if I was there, I'd be there. No really! It makes sense. It does!

Rephrasing the question for MJC.............. Do we exit the league cup in the third round?

Of course, there could be some who are jealous but still want to pump him ?

who is that?

You would think that wouldn't you but who knows what they will come up with for post split fixtures. hopefully it will work that way.

Pretty tough that we have to play, what will probably be the 3 hardest teams, Celtic, Aberdeen and Dundee utd all away twice.
