We better hope Alexander either lost a significant part of the dressing room or hadn't a clue what he was doing tactically, because if that was a happy squad of players playing to the best of their abilities, we're in deep shit.

That's just rubbing it in.

Mibbe the stuff on here counts as written warnings.

Talking of pricks....

Depends how far back into the good old days you go, I suppose. By 'golden handshake' do you mean paying up a contract agreed and signed by the club at the time of hiring?

He's going after him on Tuesday then, not Monday. Anything's possible, but he knows a large section of the support wanted Robinson out the last time, so this would be ludicrous.

The Robinson stuff could very easily just be lazy reporting, but the fact it's not just one source, and they're claiming we'll make a move for him on Monday does make you wonder if there's more to it. As others said, it fits in with our old pals ethos, which I assume comes straight from Burrows.

I realise that. It was sarcasm, given the 'Fuck off Kelly, ya dick' comment. The manager's gone. If the fans fancy chasing one of our few decent players out too, fair enough, but would it not be better to take a breather and see what their reaction on the park is first?

Don't know where he got the toxic fans stuff from.

I saw him at the Motherwell pantomime a few years ago, so he'd fit right in.

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

He's made the smart move. He built it, but looking at that squad in action over the last two games, he must've known it was only a matter of time - because they're shit, or because they're not playing for him. Or maybe both. Leaving now saves his reputation possibly taking a battering over the next few months.

Ally MacLeod was probably the quickest out the door into a new season that I can think of, up until today. If only Hammell could do a Davie Hay.

Alexander gets to keep his 'hard done by' reputation intact by going now. He's no stupid.

As soon as he started wheeling out the limited budget patter last night it was inevitable.

Last night it was mainly white, with some claret and amber.

Your point was about managers not wanting to come to a club that keeps sacking managers. The fact is, Robinson wasn't sacked. All clubs have managers leaving for one reason or another, but I think we've probably booted fewer than most.

Robinson wasn't sacked.

Leave him in Ireland.

Abject.

Christ, ref, the guy's got an armband on. Is that not ringing a bell when you blow your whistle?

Seriously? You're basically saying there's no point in moaning about this game because we wouldn't go much further anyway. I don't expect us to win a cup or sack the manager, but we've got to live in hope, and if I ever get to the stage where I just shrug my shoulders at performances like this, last week, and huge chunks of last season, I'll give the whole thing up. You keep saying Scottish football is shit. Fine, but given our record in 2022, what does that say about Alexander?

We've pretty much no chance of winning the League Cup either, so when we get booted out of that, no problem. Same with the Scottish Cup. Same with the League. Why bother about losing time after time? As for other Scottish teams, if they're all as crap as you constantly say, where's the big risk in dumping Alexander?

Why is Kelly jumping downwards?

You're meant to be excited by the first game of a new season, right? Even allowing for fitness, just looks like more of the same guff. No idea why that would surprise anyone.
