pozbaird Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 (edited) Is this dud still here? No wins, no signings, no goals, no points on the board, no press conference, no photo in a club tie, no posing with arms folded in front of the ‘SMFC’ seats, no request for SMiSA cash, no recognition of the drumming and singing section. Time to get rid. Edited June 8, 2018 by pozbaird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was simply their dislike is pretty massive. Reminds me of St Mirren fans and Alex Rae or Tommy Craig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was there for all of two months and they won one game. They are hardly likely to be gushing over his stint in charge. To be blunt, I couldn't give a flying f**k what Rotherham supporters think of him. It matters not a jot to me that this chapter of his managerial career was shambolic. Hibs fan generally hold him in higher esteem. While that's all very nice, again, it really isn't particularly relevant. What matters is what starts today. We could choose to dwell on the past, trawling about for reasons to be negative about this appointment, and for signs that would suggest a poor prognosis. What would be the point of that, though? Will it make us feel good? Will it make it more likely that Stubbs will be a success? I hardly think so. Edited June 8, 2018 by Drew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Stubbs does well, i’ll Get behind him and back the team and give him a chance like any other manager. But fans are allowed to feel a bit gutted and deflated at an appointment. Some of the names being linked filled me with genuine excitement. Now we’ve given a three year contract to someone who (based on previous jobs) is more likely to fail than succeed. The comments from their fans reminded me immediately if Alex Rae. I just hope we haven’t saddled ourself with someone else like that I’m sorry you might not agree but people can express opinions.

(when I say "do mine", I mean "cut my grass" - feck, even that could be taken more than one way - shit, so could that - I'll stop now.) Some 40 years ago I was selling to a very attractive grocery buyer at Associated Dairies. Having finished my pitch I left her office and met the W.D. & H.O. Wills sales guy on his way in and I mentioned to him how attractive she was. He said, with a smile "I hope you're no thinking of cutting my grass big man?" I had never heard the expression before, and my puzzled faced replied, "I don't even know where you live". He probably thought I was smoking something different from the baccy he was selling.

Wilbur Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 I can't understand why there have been so many (usually sensible) regular posters on B&WA offering damning, negative opinions about the Stubbs' appointment since the minute it was confirmed. His managerial record has been a mix of good and bad but isn't that the norm ? How many high profile managers have gone through their entire career without a single setback ? Pep Guardiola maybe, but he didn't apply for our vacancy as far as I'm aware. Even Fergie struggled for a few seasons at Man Utd. Before making a judgment on Stubbs appointment I think it is only fair to see the standard of player he offers contracts to. And the style of play he wants St Mirren to play. And how successful the team are on the park. And where we find ourselves in the league. Just my opinion of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
