I thought the post itself was pretty innocuous, hence why I wondered if I had missed something.

Assume Goodwin has been asked about it directly at mid-week media rather than going out of his way to say it. I don't think his quotes are all that damning either to be honest.

That did cross my mind.

It's revealing that Goodwin seems to know everything that is said online. He's more than once publicly decried social media.

I think our Jim has a few burner accounts despite his protestations.

I like that Goodwin called it out. What Pan posted caused social media/forums to assume he was on the way out. Not verbatim but "some doors have to close for others to open" with a picture of a United top paints a pretty clear picture and causes uncessecary rumours about him leaving. One of my main pet peeves of the modern player. You get paid handsomely to do a job we'd all kill to do. Treat the club that is paying you to do that with some respect I say. Bet he wouldn't have posted it if he was in the starting 11.

Saw a clip of him golfing with Mulgrew - few moments in there that he comments on "they slated me when I was Aberdeen manager"

Definitely watches and listens.

Well if you're reading this Jim. Hand your notice in tomorrow if we lose.

I once discovered that my work was being discussed online somewhere 2 or 3 years ago now, and the comments were no way as personal as the stuff you see in football circles so mainly it was quite funny but it was strangely addictive. I don't believe any player/manager who says they never look, especially when social media presence is such a big part of football these days.

How much are you going to pay me to make this decision?

I know you didn't ask me personally, but just in general conversation. Mark Wilson has done well with Partick and seems to be carrying that form into this season. He feels like a more natural replacement if we did give Jim the boot, although I'm not personally pushing for Goodwin to go (Yet). I also don't trust the club's hierarchy to choose a successful foreign manager, which seems to be the fashion in the SPL and for good reason.

Mark Wilson my thoughts as well,we should know how
season going after 10 games or so,and top 6 or better a must. Or maybe Scott Gemmil ? But hope Jim gets us going starting today.

Why on earth would you even suggest Scott Gemmill?

Great record of playing young Scots.

Interesting chat on tweeter that big bad john soutar is looking for a move to either sheep or united.

Would you take him?

alwaysanarab · Today 4:44 pm

Can we afford John S. ? Still a good player.

Chat there is that hes been told he will never play for them again and that he is demanding a free transfer.

Would we want hin? Was a bit immature at times at united....but was also a long time ago is he better than bert/graham/iovu

Could we afford him? I dont think so unless we lose one of the other 3

I'd have Souttar back 100% .
