Please let that whistle also be 'time' on McLeech's career as a manager, and if not, his employment by the club that he is single-handedly trying to destroy.

Does anyone still think that we're 'too good to go down'?

No, absolutely No question we are playing relegation football.

We know that the kids are capable of winning the reserve league.....so by default there is a progressive coaching system within the club that encourages football to be played they way it should be...simple to feet with lots of movement......only problem is that....the philosophy doesn't extend to the first team

only conclusion to be drawn from this is that the first team coaching set up is not interested in developing a positive approach to the game !!

We're piss poor but just about survive if we can beat Bolton, otherwise, I think we might just get the last relegation place.

I would have mutually parted company with this useless pillock a long time ago now.


one thing about Doug . He would never ever have had this plonker as our manager.

Doug appointed Billy McNeill, so I wouldn't be so sure.


I dont know how bad McNeill record was as a manager before us .

With the team available & who we were playing, the result was a forgone conclusion. Wasn't helped by the 'penalty' decision but as Young was apparently taught how to cheat by us that makes it acceptable? I'm only surprised Halsey (cnut) didn't let Rooney take whilst Given wasn't looking.

We can't be too critical of anyone today, we don't have the players with the quality or experience to cope with the number of injuries we have.

We now have two big games to get the 3 points which should be enough to see us safe. That's ALL that matters for now.

If Eck is to stay he MUST be given the funds to ensure that the squad has the quality & experience to ensure that we are not in the same situation next season.

So he can spend it on the likes of Hutton and N'Zogbia?
