For a guy that's worked within the media in the past, his latest actions are non to bright. Sometimes it's best to keep a dignified silence. It's obvious he just could not cope with criticism from fans, and perhaps players and jumped in the knowledge he had a rolling contract to tide him over til his next job. We gave him a platform. He did well upto the point that he ran out of ideas and stomach to continue and perhaps tarnish his earlier good work. I expect he will rock up at Thistle sporting trendy ear plugs!

Something different! Good background in coaching at various levels. Of course good coaches don't always make good managers. Hopefully the players take to him and his assistant and we kick on. The lines been drawn. Time everyone united and focused on improving our league position.
-
For once the whole process has been kept private. As it should be. Hopefully the new guy unites everybody at the club and we move forward as one.
-
Looking at our squad on the official site to try and gauge who we are missing, and came across Ward. Forgot all about his signing. Given how poor the goalie was yesterday, perhaps Ward should get a chance. Whilst I dont want anybody to lose their job, it might be good for a new goalkeeper coach.
-
Frail saying new manager is bringing his own assistant. Complete fresh look is required.
-
Clearout out required. The coaches are as much of the problem as the players.
-
Some reaction this has been. Total clear out of backroom staff required now and player clearout at end of season. No leadership on and off the field. Same tactics, same end result. Football is far to expensive to continue to be bothered with this lot. It's only a game, and there's plenty of things I would enjoy more.
-
There's a wet wall in need to go and watch.
-
As I said before Caldwell is worth a watching.
-
Your football CV is much like mine. The sad thing is that the club is in our heart and it's the hope that keeps bringing us back. The club has been in some really dark places in the past, but we always found a way to survive and push on. We badly need leadership and someone to lift us out of this apathy.
-
Like many don't think I will bother with this. On and off the field we are going to get battered. Sad state of affairs when fans show this levels of apathy. Our club is just meh just now. Mind you scottish football does not deserve the support it gets given appalling standards.
-
Perhaps if certain players had done their job properly, then this mess would not have happened. How's about the players for once take some responsibility. It's their performances that dictate the narrative each week.
-
Exactly!
-
Let Brown learn his trade elsewhere. He has not shown anything in management to date to merit a chance at the top division.
-
So our fan base are to accept attacks on their character, when the majority has been mostly understanding and supportive. Being critical constructively is not abuse. We all wanted a successful team.
-
Us fans eh, what we like? Nasty, critical and clueless. How dare we raise our voices with concerns on what direction our team is heading. That's what the majority of our fan base has shown, ie concerns we are on the slide. It's only a small minority, like every other club, that continually over step the mark. This has been happening since football started. Not right they do this, but why let them win? Obviously he has realised he knows he can't stop the slide, and goes before his reputation takes a battering. The way this resignation and take over has been handled and other issues, raises an eye brow on who we need to be keeping an eye on. Alienating your fan base is not a good look Mr Caldwell.
-
So we get rid of a guy learning his trade for another guy learning his trade in Brown. Given the resources he has been given, his team have struggled. As a club we have done well looking beyond what's in scotland, and hopefully that continues. Let's see who applies and take it from there.
-
Despite his faults, I would be sorry to see him go. But, perhaps it's in his and our interests for a refresh. He has tried his best, and that's all you can ask. Despite what some of our fans may think, managing a club at our level must be extremely challenging. Not many managers last beyond 3 years now, and must get instant results. The next guy will have the same difficulties, and I'm sure there will be a New Manager out post before the season is out. If he does go, good luck Stuart and all the best in your future.
-
Who knows?? Given the amount of injuries, the premiums, if we do have, must be a fortune. See also there are other clubs chasing Armstrong. Non to bothered if he goes elsewhere. He ain't a target man or a player capable of playing up front on his own.
-
Who's out there realistically that would improve us? Just need to look around the country to see all managers are crap according to their fan base. Not that I am saying stick or punt. As I've said before maybe a freshen up of our coaching staff or even an addition. Fresh views are needed.
-
Scunnered. On reflection that was yet again not good enough. The club really need to somehow get some positivity around the club. Good teams work dam hard on and off the ball. Our team jog about and point.
-
That second half was appalling. This 5 at the back needs to go. Injuries aside, which does not help, does not excuse the same approach every game. To many players are coasting. A fresh approach is needed.
-
So slow getting players into the box.
-
The players do know we need a goal? Where is the urgency??
-
Only player offering anything and he takes him off.
