It wasn’t OK who found the one player he signed that’s actually in his outfield XI. So thanks for making my point for me! Clueless! It wasn't Gus , I know that much. In fact Gus wanted nothing to do with the signings cause he thought they would turn out shite. You certainly are clueless! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonny 8,791 Report post Posted May 27, 2019 St Mirren players started a chant of 'If you hate Alan Stubbs clap your hands' last night in a town centre pub. And no, it wasn't the McGinns or Gary Mac that started it. Just shows what the players thought of him and his recruitment. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And no, it wasn't the McGinns or Gary Mac that started it. Just shows what the players thought of him and his recruitment. Paul McGinn sums it up well when he says anybody could see the squad was only fit for League 1. Probably a good comment on the standard of mainstream media journalism in Scotland too. They all sat about waffling about Stubbs "only getting 4 games" when anyone could see he had set the club back years in such a short time in charge! 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FTOF 11,225 Report post Posted May 27, 2019 Now that we can consign the incompetent arsehole to the anonymity he deserves , here's a something that I heard yesterday. One of the guys that sits near me was at a social engagement recently, where he had a chat with Craig Halkett. Halkett told him that Jack Ross had deal lined up to sign him at the beginning of the season. However, when Ross left, the new manager contacted Halkett and told him that the deal was off the table. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also heard this from a close contact of Halkett - Great player but was he as good as Heaton or KP . . . Alan Stubbs, does he have the middle name Steven - initials ASS.. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stu 3,444 Report post Posted May 27, 2019 I'd also heard we were in for Halkett (probably read it on here or on Twitter so no idea how true it was). I dunno how much of the changes Stubbs made were down to him genuinely not rating our players and how much was fuelled by some Damned United style bloody mindedness to do the exact opposite of what Jack Ross had done. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just think he lacked the competence to do the task he accepted, under all the constraints that went with it... AND bringing Jackson was far from a shrewd thing to do either... good CB sh*t manager 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stu 3,444 Report post Posted August 8, 2019 Is the Brian Rice that has signed Sam Stubbs for Hamilton the same Brian Rice that claimed Alan Stubbs ignored most of what he wanted to do while they were both at St Mirren? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not saying Rice has no say, just think he doesn't have the final say. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

W6Saint 1,050 Report post Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) Had to laugh at Rice's comments with regards to scouting Stubbs Jr and not just going off a phonecall with his old man...

DumboBud 552 Report post Posted August 8, 2019 Was the story not that Middlesbrough were looking at Stubbs Jnr and Heaton and Stubbs Snr as Saints manger swooped in and signed Heaton leaving the way open for Junior to sign for Middlesbrough or am I too much into conspiracies? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
