also given the fact Fir Park has the worst tasting coffee and Bovril in Scotland, possibly the World, whilst charging far more than they should, you don't even get the option of a hot drink.
Credit where it's due, that was the first decent performance under the new manager and we deservedly grabbed a victory. Pearson and McDonald made a difference yesterday and the team had a shape that has been missing for the last 8 games. There was a hunger, determination and some skill that we've been crying out for all season. The assistant and the more experienced players talking and instructing throughout the game certainly helped. One swallow doesn't make a summer and the team must build on Saturday's encouraging performance by ending the season on a high.
There isn't a football club in any top division in the world that will keep someone with 1 point in 10 matches. Not one. Very, very few would stick with 1 in 8 matches.
I genuinely despair he's been working as a scout in the Championship. He's vastly underestimated the quality of the league and thought he could get away with signing inferior standard players. Straker would struggle to play for BPA or lower and in all honesty, no one else looks particularly great. Grant being the exception.
Speaking to my mate who is a fairly high up football journo and Well fan based in Yorkshire tonight. A colleague of his has covered a few York matches this season and concurs with what most have seen so far, Straker is one the worst players he has ever seen in his years covering football. His thoughts on the other signings that he knew of weren't particularly complimentary either. The only one of them they were impressed by is Grant and the fact we were able to get him from Everton.
1 point in 24 mirrors Claude Anelka's record at Raith when he signed guys from the Paris 7's league.
1 point in 27 is horrendous, but if it is allowed to go to 1 in 30 then the season is over.
The fraud, The charlatan. Other than a man Everton offered to us, who looks a cracking player tbf, the other scouted players look honking. Straker, jesus wept! His maw must've slept with a footballer.
