sabbath Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 How is this result a shock?... We must realise John Lambie is gone, he's not there to save the club from these idiots who somehow see some sort of spark in this fool. there is only one resort now and that is to. SACK THE BOARD.

milhouse Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Wasn’t at the game today, has an Archibald side ever looked that interested in any form of cup game though? Embarrassing, yes, but we should be far more interested in our league form in the coming months. The time for him to go was Christmas last year, he saved his skin with a couple of good results at that time and the gamble was taken to keep him on. He also could have gone after the play-off. There’s a real managerial carousel happening in Scottish football currently which it may be best not to be caught up in. If we aren’t challenging near the top of the league at Christmas this year he should be gone. He doesn’t seem to get the best out of players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Col Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Why should we wait till Christmas? It's patently obvious that he has assembled a poor squad again and can't even get a result against East Fife. Our 2 league wins have come against the poorest Falkirk team for years and a team who lost their manager on the eve of the game. Ayr battered us as did Dundee Utd. There is no plausible reason for keeping him on other than blind faith from his fan club who would still cheer for him even if we ended up in League 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero chance of us to be challenging near the top, at best to be within touching distance of 4th and a playoff, at worst well towards the bottom with him still in a job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted Archibald gone throughout last season, and also after the Livingston play off. We could end with a very bad candidate at this point in time though. Perhaps not wait till Christmas then, but probably another 1-2 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say only ten minutes the first twenty two minutes was long ball after long ball after we scored we played for a bit but after that.

He's the manager. If he can't get them to do as he tells them, he needs to go. He assembled this squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have arguably took a punt on quitongo and bannigans fitness and storer has been described as a wildcard. Add in another guiser not even allowed to play and you have a squad that is fragile at best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rid Skwerr Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 I'm normally at the optimistic end of the scale, and am away at the moment so didn't see the game ....bus Jeez oh, I never thought we'd lose that one.

sandy Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 So we lost in a diddy cup? Not good. But if it means we can focus on moulding a team for the league? Get a reality check, we played a few young guys today. It’s not the end of the world (as we know it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
