spankin_panda got a reaction from eastlandssaint in Falkirk v St Mirren, Sat 1st AugEating my words on McLeish for today at least. For every call right. Went long when we had to which was the thing I felt was missing prior.
Nsio was fantastic - good signing. KP done good too, however, Jake Young coming on today wasn’t in my bingo book lol, for some reason thought he was likely to exit.
Well done team and manager today. I genuienly hope I’m constantly eating humble pie.

spankin_panda got a reaction from WirralSaint in vs Dunfermline Sunday 26th JulyI’ll try be balanced. However… it’s the first time I’ve ever seen (at least from my experience) the majority of fans want rid of the manager before the leagues started.
Academy football to first team is a jump and tactically it’s showing.
I understand that he has a philosophy but you need players capable of doing it; currently we are (imo) 4 or 5 first team players short of doing its you also need to be able to adapt and try win (more than one way of doing so), again he’s not shown he can do that.
You can say it’s maybe pampers wetting from me, I hope it is - but from what I can see we are tactically and playing squad wise, miles off it.
I’ve got my season ticket and will back the club and manager, I hope he turns it around but my concern is, we will be in a shit show position come October and require a new manager left with this squad.
Here’s to hoping I am wrong

spankin_panda got a reaction from faraway saint in vs Dunfermline Sunday 26th JulyI don’t really use social media and to hear he’s getting public abuse - there’s no need for that. I genuinely hope he proves us wrong.
and maybe 3 or 4 solid signings could do that. However - the squad we have going into the spfl on Saturday trying to play the football he wants - it’s pretty scary how easily teams could pick us off.
Here is hoping he proves us wrong

spankin_panda reacted to faraway saint in vs Dunfermline Sunday 26th JulyIt is a balanced post, unlike some of the shrieking that's come from some.
Here's what doesn't add up for me....
He's "one of our own", not someone who doesn't know the club and players.
I'm also less than convinced he's "inexperienced" and there's plenty of managers who have done well with less experience than McLeish.
The usual names were thrown around when Robinson left, none, as I recall, overwhelming.
I've already stated, but just to clarify, I'm more than hopeful this season sees us safe and with us signing players on 2-3 year contracts we can build on that.
The abuse he's getting, on social media and from the support is outrageous but not entirely surprising.

spankin_panda got a reaction from WirralSaint in St Mirren v East Kilbride, Tues 21stLet’s be honest though, conceding 3 at home to a lower league team isn’t great.
I mean - we recovered it and edged it - but we look a mile of competing at Prem level. I hope I’m wrong - genuinely do!

spankin_panda got a reaction from W6er in Heart of Midlothian v St Mirren SPFL PREMIERSHIP 23/12/23Tbf it’s more than that. Ross county was a man down - he should have been dropped 3 weeks ago. We are in a false position and only in top 6 coz the teams below us have a lot of games in hand. Will be 7th place in no time. We’ve been found out and unless SR drops out of form players our luck won’t change

spankin_panda got a reaction from Smithers Jones in St Mirren v Motherwell SPFL PREMIERSHIP 16/12/23O’hara was and has been for at least 6 weeks, a man down. He needs a spell on the bench, I’m his passing is awful, positioning has been way off and seems to float around in a trance.
Dont care if he’s captain, he’s been consistently the worst player and needs a spell on the bench.

spankin_panda got a reaction from TPAFKA Jersey 2 in St Johnstone v St Mirren SPFL PREMIERSHIP 6/12/23This is my issue. We won games by getting the ball down, out wide stretching teams and scoring goals.
Now it’s punt and run stuff. Absolutely mind boggling stuff.
Maybe we just got lucky and we’ve got carried away with expectations. Who knows…. I’m probably did

spankin_panda got a reaction from Radar in St Johnstone v St Mirren SPFL PREMIERSHIP 6/12/23Yup. Free fall & with long ball tactics, players who’ve been out of form but starting ahead of others, it’s no surprise.
Would seem We got lucky at the start of the season and we are now being found out.
