Tims next week so no doubt another horsing.

Can't see ST getting rid of his money maker but at the end of the day this is JMACs team, no longer is it Levein /Houstons team, they days unfortunately are long gone, 4-0 from Hamilton is an absolute disgrace

He should be resigning but that takes integrity. No chance of that. He's got to be sacked I'm afraid regardless of the cost. Jon Daly as Caretaker Manager for me. Even take Andy Webster in that role as well. Two boys that know the standards set for the the club in the recent past. 2010 is like a fading memory.

The boozer

100% has to go. For that result alone ffs.

Get him and his team away to fuck.

huntedbyafreak · 15/8/2015 5:06 pm

In all seriousness I don't think we need a young up and coming manager. We need someone with experience who can organise the team and make us hard to beat.

I think we still have players to do ok this season but with Jackie at helm we will continue to massively under perform

RRDH · 15/8/2015 5:11 pm

Stuart McCall wouldnt be considered up and coming at this point right? Just shooting the sh1t but reckon he would be the right fit barring a miracle of having Levein back.

dufcrule · 15/8/2015 5:14 pm

Jackie has to get sacked! Absolute garbage today! Bloody embarrassing!

15/8/2015 5:26 pm

Not sure I'd want a manager punted because of a bad result but given the awful form in the second half of last season I'd not be greeting if he went.

Is he likely to get punted? - probably depend on the reaction of the fans at tannadice - if the calls for him to go become audible in the ground and crowds fall off then he's toast - don't think we're there yet but it's getting mighty close.

lifesanocean · 15/8/2015 5:27 pm

A decent manager could get something out of that squad. There is talent there. Fitness can be improved as well fairly quickly. It's the chronic lack of fight/dig/character that will be a big problem. He has filled the team with soft as shite laddies whose arses collapse under any sort of pressure. I personally hope we get someone in who can put the fear of god into them and get tore in on days like today.

Arab_plumber · 15/8/2015 5:30 pm

No ifs and buts that clown has to go

The team is far too young, we have no pace/width and Bilate Muirhead Murray as a front 3 are a joke.

dufcrule · 15/8/2015 5:39 pm

I want jackie to get sacked not just cos of today but the form since feb 2015 has been awful! Picking up the odd win here and there just aint good enough.

Whenever utd concede, we simply fall apart and never look like scoring in reply.

Personally thought jackie was lucky to still be utd manager come the start of this season, was more than happy to give him my support for the new season but I dont think much has changed!

A team is normally a reflection of its manager it's obvious the jmac has chucked it and is waiting for a pay off Its now a game of chicken btwn. Him and ST . It boils my piss that as soon as we go a goal down we will not come back . Standards have definitely slipped at our club but until we get some leadership from our chairman it will stay the same

RRDH · 15/8/2015 5:44 pm

just reading Armstrong dropped 2 in today. Actually proper dreading our next game.

PatReilly · 15/8/2015 6:05 pm

It appeared, to me, that some players decided to 'down tools' today. The half time body language from Dillon and Bowman also spoke volumes.

However, Jackie won't walk, no matter how bad it gets. He thinks his credibility is still high, and he’s not the type of person to think any of our situation is his fault.

And I don’t think he’ll be sacked, presently, for financial reasons.

In short, we’re fucked for the time being.

I wonder if a few hundred folk asking for a season ticket refund would make the board think again.

Tek · 15/8/2015 6:11 pm

Unless all 3 do the decent thing and resign we are in deep shit.

Thompson simply will not spend hundreds of thousands of pounds to pay them off.

He has to surely resign over the weekend after that humiliation today...surely to fuck?

huntedbyafreak · 15/8/2015 6:16 pm

It's one rebuild too many. Can't lose the players we've lost and expect it to be business as usual. I'd be prepared to accept a 'transitional' season if we had a manager who could organise the team and not get beat 4 zip fae Hamilton, who have a worse post Jan record than us

I reckon he's lost the dressing room.

Too nice a guy for me...as is Sean Dillon.

boabmos · 15/8/2015 6:46 pm

4 wins in last 22 games!...enough is enough! He has to go!!

Thought that for a long time with certain players, they have no respect for Jackie and co and are going thru the motions. Can't honestly blame them, working for a coaching team with no coaching ability or tactical awareness between them.

Andy · 15/8/2015 7:10 pm

He has to be sacked and hopefully before the Celtic game, we'll lose to them regardless but we need someone in charge for a week so he can decide who he wants to move on and bring in before the transfer window shuts.

Thompson needs to spend £1m here to sack the four clowns, bring in a new management team, pay off dead weight and bring in new blood.

Sounds ridiculous to think he'll spend that but I don't think he's got any other option, spend what we got for Nads and change the direction we're going in.

I want the bastard to walk so he gets no more from our club!!
And take the rest with you.

Totally sickening what is happening at our club

He's not going to walk. Why walk away from money?

bowers · 15/8/2015 8:12 pm

Billy_Hainey · 15/8/2015 8:15 pm

Further down the table by the looks of things.
