If the BoD aren't backing Stubbs, they either intend to bag him, or they are hanging him out. Note I say IF. Either way, I fear this will not end well for our current manager. I do not wish him any personal ill, but I can't see him turning things around. Hanging him out would be pretty shabby, so I think he will be paid off sooner rather than later. All speculation, and my apologies if I am repeating myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree a small small part of it should be used though I'd rather work with cash that's available and use any further funds in January.

Drew Posted August 31, 2018 Report Share Posted August 31, 2018 I can't imagine that anyone would derive any pleasure from Stubbs losing his job, but we are where we are. It was very apparent on Saturday that something is seriously amiss, so action of some description is required. When I am passing colleagues at work who are shaking their heads and asking what the f**k has happened at my club, it is clear that we have a problem.

Yeah, but in this league it’s Hearts away, Sevco away, Aberdeen away, Hibs away, Celtic away, or tough fcukers like Motherwell, St Johnstotne, Killie... if there are any, let’s say, ‘less difficult’ fixtures, then one would be a Livingston side at home, who had just bagged their manager and international striker, and a new stooge was in their dugout with Martindale’s hand up his arse.... and how did that go? There is no point in bemoaning the next two / three / fifteen fixtures are unfair. They’re all unfair up here, in this league we weren’t just going to make up the numbers in.

I don’t think his fate has been decided. Certainly, my feeling would be that in his head, GLS must have a scenario which would be a trigger for another Greenhill Road bagging, but that may be something like not winning another game between now and Christmas, or something along those lines. I was merely saying that while the next two games are indeed tough - Hearts away and Celtic, it IS fair to judge him and indeed his team after these games, because many, many games in this league are just as tough. We might as well not judge him on three quarters of the games we’ll face? When does it get fair to judge? Accies, Livvy, a currently poor Dundee? Is that it?
