I work 8-4 and I'm in my mid-40s - hangovers last about three days. Still like a bit of bad behaviour at weekends though...
-
Don't think it's quite that simple. Sacking him would cost us a fortune. There are no obvious replacements. We only have skeleton staff at board level. We knew this wasn't going to be easy. We can't keep sacking managers ever Autumn.
-
I try not to drink cans of juice during the week, so hopefully water will do.
-
I think they made it pretty clear they're going to stick by him this season when they gave him the contract extension. I expect things will have to go really badly for him to be sacked. Judging by Sunday's performance, that's a distinct possibility.
-
There's nearly 50,000 at our home matches, so you'll probably find there are various responses to each situation. The online support tends to be a bit more unhinged. An odd reaction to the current situation would to have a go at the support.
-
Good way to get players fit and ready for first team action though.
-
Danilo and Hagi are playing in the B Team to get fit for the first team. N'Siala is a project signing, so these matches will hopefully help him become more accustomed to Scottish football. Things are bad enough without pouring misery/sarcasm on snippets of good news.
-
I wasn't too bothered about the Hagi situation a few weeks ago but surely we need to get him or Bajrami in behind the striker. The pair of them are more creative than Lawrence.
-
A wee bit of good news makes a nice change.
-
I think the board are determined to stick with PC. For the time being, I think we should too, although he's going to have to start being more pragmatic with tactics and line-ups at some point, otherwise things will get very difficult. The next three games will be huge, in terms of keeping the support on his side, although I think a significant percentage have already decided they want him gone. The players don't seem to be on his side. That's never a good sign.
-
Cerny, Matondo and Danilo.
-
No wonder we aren't scoring much with Lawrence and Dessers starting at 9 and 10. They're both pish.
-
I thought the club made it quite clear there'd need to be some downsizing, which was understandable when considering some of the silly wages we were paying. The surprising thing is how tactically inept and uncompetitive we are.
-
F*ck it, I'm not going to stick up for Clement after yesterday's debacle.
-
You've got a real bee in your bonnet about Igamane, Cammy. I don't think Clement could've predicted Danilo's continued injury problems and even if he could, there's no way anyone was going to buy him.
-
He was willing to let Dessers go in the Summer but Dessers wanted to stay. I'm not sure Clement can be fully blamed for the striker problems. Beale brought in Dessers and Danilo, one of whom is shite and the other has never been off the treatment table.
-
My point is we have been sourcing players that fit your criteria. Young, ambitious, with a desire to move to bigger leagues. You just compared Jefte with 'prime Barisic' - are you expecting us to sign kids that are better than Croat internationals in their prime? That none of these players seem to be progressing is either an issue with their mindset or a coaching issue (Cortez excluded, due to injuries), although could be a bit of both.
-
Cortez, Diamonde, Igamane and Jefte.
-
Our recent performances, stats aside, are getting reminiscent of Beale's tenure. And GvB's. We don't have enough creativity in the middle of the park. Barron is a decent enough DM but Diamonde seems to be getting gradually worse, creating virtually nothing and Lawrence is a waste of a jersey.
-
Of course but to say it means nothing is still ridiculous.
-
A bit of a ridiculous comment.
-
We should still be beating the likes of Kilmarnock. Several of the players yesterday cost more than 1 or 2 million.
-
I've went for Cerny. He was one of the few players who at least shot at goal.
-
I think a lot of us are genuinely fed up. Crowds are going to get smaller, on a regular basis, in the very near future.
-
Seems to be a common thing these days: if you're annoyed about something and go on a rant, make sure you include lots of buzzwords and stock phrases, even if they aren't appropriate.
