    Regards tipy tapy fitbaw, why not play it out from the back? We can't hold the ball up so why not play it on the deck? Why can't professional football players pass a ball 10-20 yards?
    Now I know some times clear your lines and I agree with that, but some of the best football I witnessed was playing it out under Hendrie and Lennon,

    If we ever were to actually get to the byeline and play a decent cross then Thommo will be effective. Our current style of play does not suit the Hawk and its absolutely pish anyway.
    Anyway I see we are fixating on an out of form striker when our defence is clearly the real problem. We are hopeless in defence, rank, putrid, bowfing and pure school playground stuff.
    Alex Miller has much work to do.

    I was giving the current management the benefit of the doubt and looking to Hibs poor start to last season as proof that it can indeed be difficult to come down and rebuild in this league. However, it is fair to say things have gone beyond a joke now and its time to urgently apply pressure on the board to take some form of action (which to be fair, has started with Alex Miller being brought in this week).
    I was pretty sceptical when Anne Budge and Hearts brought in Levein in a "director of football" capacity and put the pretty inexperienced Neilson in as manager. It is fair to say things have worked out very well for them and that goes down to new leadership coming in and getting the proper structure in place from top to bottom of the club, obviously including areas such as scouting and coaching. I believe Neilson also has the team in in the afternoons and on Sundays & Mondays too when needed.
    Murray made a point in his last interview that the home form has been going on for 2 years before he moved to the club. I think its taking the piss a bit to suggest we would not be beating Livingston and Dumbarton under Danny Lennon or Gary Teale, however he does have a point there. It seems the whole structure of the club needs urgent surgery. We have pissed away so much money on releasing players like Dougie Imrie, who seems to be doing ok now still in the top league. Gary Teale was left with no chance to rebuild the team last season, only being confirmed as manager just before the window closed. And we have been at the very least naive if not criminally negligent in building a youth academy and then letting McLean and McGinn walk away for buttons. I have a bad feeling the same will happen with Mallan....
    Murray is not a very impressive manager but he is doing worse at St Mirren than at Dumbarton! It seems there are real problems within the club that are going to be difficult for any young manager to turn around.
    I know most will say we need a new chairman and board. That simply is not going to happen any time soon.
    Something needs to be done, and urgently.
    Would the sensible thing to do with Alex Miller be to appoint him in an executive capacity and give him the chance to use his experience to carry out a complete analysis of the youth development, coaching, scouting, management and on-field departments of the club?
    I think the solutions here are a lot more complex than continuing the chopping and changing of the first team coach.

    Murray should show some respect to the fans and have some self respect and hold his hands up and walk away.
    There were 10-15 decent minutes at the start then we fell apart. Gallacher got subbed yet Thommo was offering nothing, as for the penalty, well surely these players get it drummed into them about not making silly tackles in the box, it's not even at school boy level, these guys are clueless

    Gardening leave my arse. I don't agree with much of what the BoD do, but they appointed a young manager with knowledge of the division St Mirren had slipped into. He had done enough at Dumbarton to suggest St Mirren was a step up for him, but not a step too far.
    It was a sensible looking appointment considering relegation meant a natural re-build anyway. It looked to be an imaginative appointment given the usual Butcher, Tangoman or Shiels type of possibility.
    The BoD have, in this instance, in my view anyway, given a promising manager who seemed the right man at the right time, the keys to the club Infiniti.... And supplied him with decent tools in a team with a spine of decent (on paper / for this division) quality - Langfield, Webster, Goodwin, Thommo and Gow... Those names, by Christ, with some talent around them, should be OK for taking on everyone possibly bar the Ibrox Impact Globetrotters.
    Gardening leave? Nah. The BoD should haul Murray, Spalding and the senior players into the boardroom and have a frank discussion*
    * kick their fcuking arses.

    Why is it to early to talk of regime change? I'm not convinced about (waterboy) Mark Spalding. Apparently he only took up a post at Dumbarton helping out with the cones, bibs, water bottles etc on a voluntary basis a couple of seasons ago. Granted he did have all his badges, but he had never been round a club until then. After buzelin left to join Hamilton he was made No.2 at Dumbarton, much to the players surprise, this also coincides with a slump by the sons and a few of their fans saying they were happy Murray left. Now a few months later he is our No. 2, I'm wondering if we should get a more experienced man in with murray, like Danny did when we got rid of Jenkins?
