Shouldn’t change a winning team.

It’s definitely not the latter.

Good summation. The togetherness was there for all to see. Can add the rest of the squad having very good games with Sol growing into the game after losing his footing. Substitutions on point and each having impact. We’ll get stronger with additions.

Not putting each post under scrutiny but, I’m not reading anything like that

Merely an observation. Jobs for the boys thinking isn’t necessarily a hiding to nothing.

I don’t see it as a bit strong & can understand the sentiment. I’ll wager it won’t be a minority thinking Premier league clubs who are going to be in the dogfight shouldn't be appointing boys club managers… As for the recruitment team? Should’ve been emptied a week past Friday also. Don’t think anybody’s mentioning not getting behind him, whoever it may be.

Therein lies part of the problem. Pedigree.

Both different types of player so hardly comparable for me. Maguire hasn’t the discipline & is rash for starters. Adding experience there to aid their development was to be welcomed - we got Blair Spittal. Further compounds the problems.

Couldn’t disagree more. Huge change in the way we play? Think some are confusing this with a rise in match sharpness. I note the same posters who were accepting of a few additions to an existing squad are now favouring an overhaul which in reality isn’t happening regardless of who is appointed - left yesterday with the feeling we chased better players out the club including O’Hara.

And another. Tapping into a subject I suspect you know little of. You do get the idea of ‘protest’? Had little bearing on the team getting beat as you put it, they certainly weren’t building any momentum at anyrate. Not an endorsement, I do though understand the thinking. Think some of the holier than thou in our support should have more things to worry about.

If that’s improvement, trouble is just around the corner. Today should put an end to any notion of Hammell moving office. It’s folly.

If we’re discussing our signings this early, heralded as adding to our attacking options Spittal wouldn’t feature high for a few I’d suggest on account he’s yet to make a forward pass since he arrived.

Typical. My flabber has been gasted.

Ratings mean very little, often marked by persons not even at the game so easily discounted. Holding them up as some sort of virtue in comparison with rest of the team playing badly is a nonsense. I'm not sure the analogy with regards applause - verging on the ridiculous that.

Neither solid nor reliable, it’s difficult to rate any of our centre backs but, I’m genuinely curious as to this ‘which he has done in the past’ you speak of.

I’ll give you ‘it shouldn'tweaken us a great deal if only bevis plays as we know he can’ for starters.

Amazing, as wild takes go.

Not to take this post in isolation - club haven’t asked for applications as that’s rarely the process. Registering of interest comes in differing ways.

This was a separate issue and nothing in the context of this debate. Appreciate its not a good look & regrettable for both parties but, matter has been concluded amicably.

He looked to be maturing in that position until physicality exposed badly. He has though filled out a bit, I don’t see him reverting to the defence. He’s not the first pick Alexander & more than a few on here had him as.

You do know he was brought to the club having spent his formative years playing on the right side of midfield? Academy coaches then tried to convert him to be a defender whilst Robinson/Ross viewed him as a number 6.

What for? Carrying the hamper? I’d be unsure he can cut it at top level.

Why would I be joking? It’s about seeing how it happens and not just watching hence, my those who won’t accept explanation comment. For 18 months we’ve not been given opportunity to see what our midfield can do. Hopefully a fresh outlook may do just that. Out of interest, who would you go for in the bracket you describe?

Could well be right

Lot of merit in that post.
