    The fact that Parky has already stated he wants power n pace signings in January suggests to me he deserves a chance to at least get us out of this league.

    We could all see that in August.
    A) why hasnt the club addressed it yet?
    B) should we also be given a go in charge as we see the same thing?

    Maguire begins the forward? Leaving the 2 deeper? Bring watmore in out wide, as an example.

    It's not the personnel alone, it's the set up of them and how deep we were.

    A. No idea. Personally apart from the Reid era SAFC have always lacked it.
    B. Parky hasnt had a transfer window but at least he has recognised it within a month.

    Seriously mate, if that's the most contentious and contradictory example you have it's pretty lame imo.

    Ross recognised it but it wasnt addressed then either. I'm more concerned hes doing even worse than Ross was. 2 win in 10 is dreadful.

    I'm all for giving a manager time but you have to earn it along the way. In hindsight Ross should have went in the summer and been replaced properly and actually given some money to spend. The owners were too interested in selling up to spend though imo.

    That's one example. If being 10th on this league or whatever we are is in anyway acceptable then we may as well give up.

    Of course methven blames the fans though.

    I was very careful with my question ...

    ... I'd hoped you'd be as careful with your answer.

    "What would you say, in your opinion, is the most contradictory they've been with each other?"

    ****ing hell . This is bollocks.
    If you are offended it is you he is talking about. He has never offended me.
    There is a real problem with Chinese whispers and social media. The saying that bad news or a lie can be half way around the world has never been so apt. And misery hounds like you lap it up. You aren't displaying passion, you are displaying yourself as a ****.

    Okay mate. Fans who go home and away are the reason we are 10th in league one and not the recruitment and players.

    Methven literally said Donald is absent because of fan abuse, which Donald then said wasnt the reason. So something doesnt add up does it?

    I said the fans are a problem did I? You see you make things up. I said YOU are a misery hound.

    We will never score when the midfield is playing back and sideways. Have they been told to play like this is the important question for me.
