One of the many reasons the fans didn’t take to Jim was his refusal to move to the city He had a flat but preferred to commute from What’s It Called rather than live there The Dons fans seen him as a weegie for this When Aberdeen were travelling south for a match the team bus would pick him up at WIC and drop him back there on the way up the road I heard it described as a school trip that the headmaster joined half way through and killed any atmosphere the players had created on the journey This situation led to him being unpopular with the players as well as the fans I would imagine he’ll be one of the favourites for the Thistle gig rather than the Motherwell one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having watched the cup highlights (Saints game excepted) I find it amazing the none of the Thistle players were sent off for their assault on the Rangers player who scored the controversial goal. At least two should have been immediately dismissed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a decent manager but too early for Premier league. Will the Saints' fans already feel that Nathan Jones has been gone too long?

exiledfan Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 Relatively risk free appointment for them . They are f**ked right now and Jim has a point to prove get it right and scrape through staying up it's a good move. They go down but with a big improvement he may get fans on board and behind him for a promotion tilt. Get it wrong and no improvement it's goodbye thanks for your efforts. Bigger risk for Jim. He needs this to rebuild his reputation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
