magnus Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) Anton always makes a point of applauding the supporters and even Alan Stubbs can't question the big man's contribution on the park. Applause, acknowledgement - call it what you will - is a form of communication and encouragement. Skills Alan Stubbs seems a wee bit short of.

Very true. I'd love to know what went on at La Magna. AS made a number of mistakes. Chief amongst them was a misinformed belief that the board would back him when dealing with players. Not getting your "chief" player on side couldn't have helped either. I would prefer that he had remained silent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Applause, acknowledgement - call it what you will - is a form of communication and encouragement. Skills Alan Stubbs seems a wee bit short of. Don't get me wrong. I'm not knocking McGinn for applauding the fans. I did appreciate when Jack and the team took the time to applaud us but in those days it looked like the team were putting in the effort. Stubbs wasn't a happy clapper but unfortunately his teams never usually rewarded us with anything on the park and Captain Fantastic's effort would have been appreciated more if he had done his talking on the park instead of waiting till the end to say thanks for coming boys n girls to another game where it looked like me and the boys never gave a shit but we're glad you paid hard earned cash to watch us. Join in the fans celebrations, YES but don't clap us out the ground when you have been woeful and every one thinks you should have tried harder, Edited November 2, 2018 by East Lothian Saint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are that concerned why dont they pay us back our admission fee from their wages? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly AS wasn't delighted with what JR had left him for the job ahead. Clearly OK isn't delighted either with what he has. Par for the course with football managers. Both are correct however and a clear out is needed sooner rather than later. Where I hope they differ is in the scale of departures and a continuing improvement in the recruits coming on board leaving us with a group of players committed to the managers philosophy and approach. Anything less will be papering over the cracks. Edited November 2, 2018 by St.Ricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you name the star performers thus far that Ross left Stubbs & Oran..? Isnt this the crux of the matter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oran Kearney has signed 3, 2 of which are of standard and another in Hamill who is, but is underperforming due to an attitude problem that has followed him throught his career.

Buddie-Boy Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 Although he hasn't said much there, it would genuinely be interesting to hear his side of the story. Clearly there was a lot going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proudtobeabuddy Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 Alan who? I've already forgotten him. What a load of pish he talks! he came in all guns blazing and tried to change everything too fast and basically told everyone they were shite, great man management. Contrast his style with Jack Ross and you'll see why Stubbs will never be a good manager, probably a nice guy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Ross signed FORTY players so as Delia says 'Lets be 'avin them' point is our current problems didnt start the day Stubbs walked in the door any more than they did with Oran.
