  1. Your first statement not entirely true, plenty of evidence that they’ve taken accountability. Can say what we want about them but Burrows & Russell were always a sensible go-between. They understood the aims and objectives and were supportive. The second statement is myth. There’s also been plenty of events when not involved as you say that attempts to exert an undue control and influence by the club employee. Fully expect that would be the case moving forward too.
  2. In your opinion? Maybe. I suspect most don’t agree both inside and outside. You don’t really get the jist of meaningful protest for starters. Out of touch and a total lack of understanding.. Theres also a saying ‘for those who understand it needs no explanation, for those who do not, no explanation is possible’. Fan culture has shifted immeasurably even since the inception of the group at the end of the East Stand. The generational gap between those in the East Stand, the naysayers and those in the boardroom is the real worry. Do us a favour and leave out the “Green Brigade wannabe” references. It’s far removed from what’s been going on. I for one am glad political & religous belief is generally left outside the gates.
  3. Another nonsense statement from yourself. You understand who the Well Bois are? It’s not difficult to grasp the demographic on how the end section is made up, largely 3 factions. It’s disingenuous to brand all the same. Yet, you don’t ‘like’. Never once have they sought ‘to value their status more than the club itself’. There are plenty within the fanbase who have reminded them of that and they’ve grown stronger due that actively encouraged by the club. It would be anarchy without. Again, some just don’t want to recognise that.
  4. Now you’ve got the insider gossip jibe off your chest, be as vague as you want. I still wouldn’t be surprised on what you know given your claims to be spurious at best. I’m struggling to see where not standing idly by when innocent Motherwell fans were attacked as embarrassing. Not an endorsement for some behaviours, but, understand when they occur. The attacking of an opposition player is poor analogy, where was it mentioned the club weren’t supporting this group? The actions of 2 club employees have angered a lot more than the group given the offers of information forthcoming. Last few safety officers? I’m sure it’s only 2 they’ve had to deal with including the current incumbent adding his ex-colleague appointment. Wouldn’t expect there to be no problems given the shift in demographic and understandings as times move - there’s been censure when required and common ground found on many points. An appreciation. Some just don’t wish to recognise that. It’s pretty telling that Society board/Club aren’t happy around social media output and not club employee behaviour. It’s evident from their train of thought they’ve lost control and don’t know what to do in the absence of brand management or CEO. Both parties have a buffer, not using it is on them. Do the ego’s that know no bounds have carte blanche? Certainly feels like it. Certainly uneasy bedfellows given the Police Scotland links. Can you tell us how many of these wake up calls on information offered have lead to conviction?
  5. Tapping into a subject you know little of isn’t a surprise. Bigger picture to what happened in Kilmarnock, you don’t have to scratch the surface much to get that information. As for ‘heehaw to do with the club’ Police Scotland made it known it was in co-operation with the club - that authority being economical with the truth? It’s known who offered the name of the fan subject to one such raid who wasn’t even in the country at the time alleged, certainly wasn’t Police Scotland who back tracked. ’wee Stone Island hard men’ is awful chat. Unfortunately, club employee in question has the ear of factions in the Society & Club boards and the same factions are unlikely to rock the boat for self interest. Protest is a last straw, united support can be a strong movement especially if they prove the society to be a busted flush.
  6. Kettlewell wasn’t working with the academy, but, academy graduates.
  7. It’s a Burrows cast off by the looks of it
  8. Off on a tangent there. Some who have seen both in development teams are just of the opinion that showing belief where the player could make mistakes and learn in the first team environment have been missed. That’s been to Aberdeen’s gain thus far.
  9. Positive noises made at AGM. I find our choice of development could have (may still do) realised transfer income akin to Aberdeen selling the kid Ramsay to Liverpool. The same player who went to pieces in front of the East Stand… twice.
  10. I’m not sure that’s how we’re setting up.
  11. Let it go 😂 He’s in there to do some dirty work tonight which will require legs to nullify one of the opposition. Theres a reason you’re not on the coaching staff.
  12. That’s not unusual, but, it’s being reported wrongly elsewhere.
  13. Weird take, but, there you go. You don’t know me, of that I’m certain. Braidhurst link has me stumped for one. Differ with plenty opinions on here & appreciate others debate. I do tend to discount some opinion on here, generally those with no substance. There’s usual suspects for that. Anyway, it’s a digress from the new manager hunt.
  14. Word salad? Pot. Kettle. Black. Honestly don’t know what I’ve done that you’ve awoken bent out of shape over the clubs’ search for a manager. is it a jealousy thing? Let it go. Nobody’s claimed to be a tactical wizard or have I ever asked for info straight from the dressing room. You don’t even have to scrape the surface to find out… It’s easily corroborated and can be backed up every time. Not the first time you’ve made silly claim. So if you think you know me as I suspect you do, stop in the passing and bend my ear.
  15. You don’t have to be torn apart by wingers to be ineffective. Well aware he’s only played u23 football, so had McKinstry. Both were brought here to play
  16. It really isn’t difficult. He’s symptomatic of the shite produced. Lauded as a steady 7/10 week to week when he signed yet, he’s never hit that height. Furlong signed as a left back and you’d shoehorn the ineffective McGinn? Based on what? Arbroath? Skewed thinking.
  17. 4-4-2 against an Aberdeen midfield 3/5? Overrun from the off? I’d be matching up in the midfield with a hard press as we did earlier in the season. Regardless of our current form, opportunity to use the crowd in our favour. And no McGinn.
  18. 😂 the camera doesn’t lie yet, you observed it right away? Yir laddy patter is chronic.
  19. No, nothing like that 😂 Nearest defender in the box goes to the opposition player. Our man unlucky not to make the interception after getting into that position, had he, we wouldn’t be having this conversation.
  20. 😂😂😂 How could he be on wrong side from the start as McGinn was moving forward , we’re heading up the park at that point. Watched BBC highlights, not seeing any difference despite using Specsavers. Sportscene comments were also the defence had already transitioned to attack so were nowhere - who’s culpable? raises his hand for four? Four what? Non blondes? Raises his hand for the foul after opposition scores, no matter how many times you repeat what you say - it’s still not true. Yeah, you’re right, I’m not Dean, I’m not his father either having not bedded his mother. I’m his agent. Already said he got caught wrong side, that’s unfortunate in that passage of play. Nobody mentioned the fundamental as you put it for reason already offered. So trumped.
