    beyond our ken got a reaction from NeilPar72 in Thanks For Everything Danny   
    I'm not particlularly pro-lennon. i am a realist, he is not going to be sacked any time soon and the negativity from many is childish and destructive. no team has a divine right to win every game and anything that involves people will go astray from time to time. the hallmark of dignity and maturity is to hold fast and try and work it out, not sack every fukker's ass whenever the balloon goes up.
    The weasel words of the OP are a disgrace, simply rubbing salt in the wounds if his dreams come true and wee danny is sacked.
    I've said before, civilisation is a thin veneer and we are seeing that now. Terry Butcher is held up as an example by some, take a look at this extract from wikipedia.
    On 27 January 2009, Butcher was appointed manager of Inverness Caledonian Thistle, signing an 18-month contract.[24] Butcher was joined in Inverness by Maurice Malpas as his assistant manager. In May 2009, Inverness were relegated from the Scottish Premier League. In November 2009 George Burley was sacked as Scotland manager and at the same time Butcher left by mutual consent.
    After a bad start to the 2009/10 First Division league campaign, Butcher managed to turn things around for Inverness. The turning point many see as being the win against his former club, Motherwell, in the cup. By the end of March, Butcher had guided his club from 16 points behind league leaders Dundee, to 4 points ahead and top of the Scottish First Division. He was awarded the "Irn Bru Phenomenal" manager of the month award for March.[25] Inverness won the Irn Bru First Division on 21 April after Dundee were beaten 1–0 by Raith Rovers clinching Inverness's return to the Scottish Premier League.

    Standing by DL just now might just be the making of him and our club. Remember that somebody has to come last and as a small club our turn for that comes around more often than we might like, but probably just as often as we deserve. It doesnt mean we have to abandon our dignity and humanity, we should be showing the best of ourselves just now but I honestly despair of the behaviour of some posters.
    and finally, before i watch the recording of Richard Prior and open that wee bottle of Rioja, After seeing the owner of this forum call for the manager's sacking, the nasty part of me hopes that DL tells div to take a flying f**k to himself next time he asks for info or an interview. But i suspect that DL is some way better than that and I should be too.

    You must be a shit manager then, almost anyone in bother can turn it around. It's not hard if you have the will and a boss who knows the ropes. I.m proud to say I've been a manager for over 20 years and have never had to dismiss anyone. It's as much hard work to build a case and bag someone as it is to address their shortcomings and help them move on. I suppose it depends on what approach you prefer

    I know, it's a laughable thread. Then again, when you look at who started it then that is not surprising.

    If anything, it is Thommo's job to close out these games. That's what he is paid for.
    Hopefully the rumours that ST is unhappy with the manager and is working his ticket for him so that he can replace him are just that, rumours. if they were true would we really want someone in the manager's chair who got the job by undermining his gaffer?

    The players need to be ready to explain why they are not following the managers instructions to a T....... And if what a lot of people on here want happens, DL sacked, then they need to explain why they will listen to a new manager. I think it's a disgrace that DL could be sacked because of the players inability to do thier job as they should.

    You've hit the nail on the head. Too many people have decided that the manager has to go and now they are working hard to make sure their prophecy comes true. Wonder how many will have the grace to say they were wrong if the manager turns it around, many clubs have had worse starts and then turned it around. we arent even out of August yet. if the players let us down today then changing the manager ain't gonna improve things. Time for some of the senior players to show some leadership, I feel.
    Some people blaming the manager, some blame the players, some blame the board and some blame all three. if it is true that there was a vocal section giving the team stick from the start then i'm afraid the support needs to join the rest and take a good look at themselves.
    I'm not happy about performances or results, but we've been through this before and come out of it.

    Some of the fans at the game today were a disgrace giving the players dogs abuse from the kick off, some even before a ball was kicked, What has happened to getting behind the team, even when they're playing badly, Do any of these "supporters" think abusing already disheartened , not playing well, or not "up for it " players will suddenly make them into better players.
