the barrhead teacher Posted June 15, 2019 Report Share Posted June 15, 2019 This thread has as with so many descended into a vitriol of abuse between the chosen few who have plenty to say about each other but little concerning football or st mirren. Tony is over the top and over ambitious but who really cares?? A quality coach that we can hold onto for a number of years, with an eye for a player without relying on lots of cash, and a consistently productive academy system will produce regular top 6 results and the real possibility of a Kilmarnock esque season. St Johnstone have shown us this over many seasons, Clarke at killie has shown how a good coach can create a genuinely competitive side, our away support has demonstrated what we can contribute to Scottish football. Will it happen? Probably not, but what's the harm in dreaming big?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldfellow Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 Tony acting the idiot yet again. Should have stayed on holiday. Why would anyone want to manage us with him spouting drivel in the background. I'd love to be well up the league but let's not beat ourselves with a rod of our own making. Tony should concentrate on doing his own duties to the highest standard which he hasn't done as far as I can see. Leave Jim to manage without needless pressure.

oaksoft Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 It's hilarious how Tony's comments provoke such a negative reaction from people who I guarantee are risk averse in life. Calm down guys.

Dibbles old paperboy Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 (edited) As someone who was prepared to take a generous view of Tony's earlier pronouncements I think it is bad timing to come out with the aiming for the top 6 quotes. Goodwin hasn't even met the squad yet and we still have a few signings to make. I think most fans would agree with Tony we should be aiming to try and make the top 6 and he is right that other small provincial clubs have made the top 6 (most of the examples he mentioned are now Championship clubs) and there should be no reason why St Mirren shouldn't aim to break into the top 6 and reach that level from time to time. Most of the clubs Tony mentioned as Top 6 finishers also made the Top 6 at a time when Rangers had been liquidated and RIFC were in the lower leagues and Hibs and Hearts had been relegated and Aberdeen had been inconsistent and often finished in the bottom 6. It's now a lot harder for the smaller provincial clubs to make the Top 6 unless Celtic, RIFC, Aberdeen, Hibs or Hearts have a really bad season - they are all significantly financially better off than Motherwell, Kilmarnock, St Johnstone, St Mirren, Hamilton, Livingston, Ross County, Inverness, Partick Thistle etc. I do find it a bit worrying that after staying up on a penalty shoot-out in the play offs that Tony has said Jim Goodwin would not have been appointed if he said the aim would be to avoid relegation next season. I think most fans would settle right now for avoiding relegation and the play-off and seeing 10th or better as an improvement, and if we can stablisise the club and consolidate and improve each season for a few years that would be the time to start publicly talking about the top 6. When the fixture list came out, bearing in mind how last season panned out, and given the amount of signings still to be made, there aren't any easy games - Ross County comfortably finished ahead of Dundee United last season and won't be push-overs. I would hate to think that if we had a slow start or were still signing players at the end of the window and looking at free agents after that, that the new manager could already be under pressure to be in contention for the top 6 this season.

Completely agree Ronnie. It bothers me that TF heeps pressure on the manager just days after he's in the job. It's great having ambition, but this is not helpful.

shull Posted June 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 If we aspire to be 10th, then we will be 10th, 11th or 12th. Tony Fitzpatrick is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st jock Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 Jim Goodwin will know all about Tony and his ambition and enthusiasm for the club and wont feel any added pressure IMO. The most pleasing aspect of it all is that Tom English is absolutely furious with Fitzy, who must have been pumping his wife!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shull Posted June 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 With Sevco and Celtic corrupting the League with their sectarian income we should always be aiming to finish third. If we don't strive for third then there is no point in participating and taking good money from supporters. There might be a relative financial gap between Aberdeen, Hibs, Hearts and us but a good fecking manager can make up the difference. Fitzpatrick is spot on. Leave him alone and ignore the sectarian loving media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK; not sure where to begin, perhaps they are being diplomatic and "Him" should really be He since it is in a subjective position and "Him" is an objective pronoun. Also why absolutely f**k all and not definitely f**k all or even potentially f**k all, why not simply f**k all? Oh! and you misspelled f**k as well. 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
