another convesation come to a halt LOL

Scary how old we are gettin ! I remember goin to reserve games and watchin Dixie Deans.

I really believe that there are many punters on here who could have selected a better team for Saturdays game against Dundee and went with different tactics. Of course a purely hypothetical siuation but since we ended up with zero points anyone on here would not have done any worse. I am normally one to give people a chance but so far he has made decisions on the 3 items below and in my opinion has drastically failed in all 3 categories. it also seems he has been unable to instil lsome spirit into the team, admittedely probably much harder thah the 3 he's already failed on. I also think that if fans had seen some marked improvement on the field, that even if we were still in same position, they would be more willing to support him. Sometimes you have to just face up to situations and admit your mistakes. For the board, this may be one of those times. team selection, team tactics new signings.

I think he has to take some of the blame but probably agree that most of it is down to the players.

.............and so the english language continues to evolve...

The fact that we are starting to see the youngsters like Erwin, Thomas, Watt, and Moore come into the team may be the one bright spot in this season from hell.

I'm just waiting on hom scoring an OG

Don't worry, I'll write them a cheque mate...........so they won't have to pawn anything

Any bets on our new full back scoring an OG ?

I wouldn't say I have singled Sutton out as being the main factor in our slump this year but I do admit to having been one of the guys suggestiong that he should be dropped in favour of Erwin. However, I would certainly not advocate getting rid of him. We know he can score goals and I am sure he will start to score moere again once we get things sorted. I think it wold be a mistake to punt him.

what is this word fact you mention?

Because, sadly, this year, that may be the best bet !

I find myself more and more hoping that it is someone whose name we have not seen. I have not been very inspired by the names so far.

I'd say next 5 games are up for grabs if we can string some half decent performances together.

thought the flag went up fpr offside on that one ?

im with you on that one. I havent seen a lot but from what little i have seen Reid and Ainsworth would be in my starting 11

i think more than individual performances the pleasing thing for me was seeing some semblance of players beginning to link up better, running off the ball and a lot more creativity than the rest of the season so far. At last, a glimmer of hope!................however, Sutton still struggling but hopefully if the rest of the team start to play he will work his way out of the slump and back to the goal scorer he has proved he can be.

Ojamaa for me after watching full game last night. Looking more and more like what we were expecting.

Nice touch!!

Why is this thread still going? We now know the answer for a fact. YES!

(29 October 2014 - 10:34 PM) "there was a real danger of the ownership of the club being lost to the local community for the first time." ........I don't think i care about that so much as I do about the club staying in existance and being financially stable. Does this mean we have a potential buyer but the directors all want to continue to run MFC and so need a helpiung hand to ward off the buyer? I am reading it as the buyer would be buying a football club and not buying us to flatten the place and put up a housing development or something.

Well hopefully thats where the security kicks in and helsp you recoup your investment

Seems like a good investment opportunity with the security. Hopefully a 100 people think so enough to put out the cash. Although i'd like to hear more on the "quickly sold" and wrong hands mentioned.

Like weeyin says its not even a drop in the bucket for the teams down south. I wouldn't be averse to being a feeder team for one of them if they provided financial security. While 1 million is hell of a lot for us many teams down south could afford that every year to support a feeder team.

It mentions being "sold very quickly" and also has a mention of falling into the wrong hand. is there a potentioal buyer ?? would that buyer be the "wrong hands" mentioned? if so , why?
