He's got to go. Its absolutely pathetic now. All the hard work and ethos instilled in the club by Levein has been undone. We are back to accepting defeat like in the McCall, Chisholm and Brewster era.

It appears to be a Mexican stand-off between two men who's main motivation is money. One won't go because he wants his pay-off, whilst the other won't sack him because wants to keep all his money for his own impending departure.

Meanwhile the fans look on in utter despair and are actually getting the blame in some quarters for the whole sorry mess.

One other thing...no infact 2 other things....

1.Our away form is embarrassing.
2.Our 2nd half performances are utterly shockingly bad.We so often capitulate completely in the 2nd half.Is this fitness or mentality...or both?

I know where the buck stops anyway.

Both.

Home form is definitely better because the players have nowhere to hide when 6000 of you own fans are watching.

Fitness is a joke as well.

As a matter of interest, who is your great Messiah in the meantime?

So, you would sack a management team, at great cost, that have improved the seasonal performance of a team that's had it's heart ripped out twice by the board, for a fantasy shopping list?

I'm certainly not gonna start picking fights here Bugs. I respect your opinion and faith that Jackie will get it right.

All I want is a manager who gets the players:
a) Working hard
b) Trying to play the right way
c) As fit as every other team
d) Showing character when the chips are down

There is a reason why everyone went absolutely nuts at the end of the cup games against Motherwell and particularly the Aberdeen semi. It was because we actually showed some guts in coming from behind to win the game. People are not used to seeing that this season under Jackie. Seemingly we've been behind in about 22 games this season but the two I've mentioned above are the only ones we've actually won with only 3 draws. Thats scary.

I don't want him sacked. He should resign. But he won't.

Suppose the fans could be the 'outside event'.

That's exactly what will have to happen Pat,and i've thought that for some time now.

Might be that defeat next week is what it takes for the support to turn on him and hasten his departure.

Then no doubt his pals in the media will all comment how ridiculous it all is.

The only power fans actually have is not buying season tickets.

If they were to chant 'Jackie ...Jackie GTF' or something similiar loudly from the ETL he'd be off that same night.

Not saying i would want that to happen btw.But it'll take something like that for him to walk,as he knows he's unsackable for all intents and purposes.

I hope to fuck that doesn't happen. It would be an absolute minter. The Fun would have a field day.

If you read the post, you'd appreciate I'm satisfied with the final outcome overall, especially bearing in mind the handicaps.

Quite remarkable with "bad results for months".

Jackie's "cut" is down to ST and should always be treated as such.

Presumably, then, the 3H's position is preferable, if I'm so wrong with my post?

 

Good point bugs. I love your lack of negativity, it's a game of football after all
