I can’t believe Gerry Britton’s role in this , he must have worked alongside Kris in various roles over the last 10 years The Chairman was in the Press stating they had there plans ready for next Season Start of the week - that didnt happen over the weekend - they would have budget and Player list fir staying up ( or going down ) in advance - it didnt happen overnight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad it's not dark these nights as torches ablaze would provide a nice touch. Exactly. A torchlight parade up Maryhill Road. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARu-Strathbungo Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Unfortunately, I did not make the cut for the presentation [but am on a reserve list] The message from the club did say the whole thing will be filmed and shown at a later date. Fingers crossed it does not turn into an episode of the Jeremy Kyle show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspect they will ask the attendees who wish to ask a question to write it down and hand it to whomever,that way they will have some control over what is said,and give Mr Caldwell a chance to peruse the Questions,hopefully it stays sensible.Be interesting to see if Messers Low and Britton appear to back up The Manager and also give an insight as how they feel that the departure of Kris Doolan has reflected on the Club.

To be fair, at the last meet the manager event they took questions from the floor. I doubt they’d do anything other than that again. For all I think the event is very much a panic move and for all my criticism of Caldwell, I do hugely respect the fact he’s willing to participate in this. Maybe it’s arrogance, maybe it’s bravery, but I think facing (what I presume might be) some hostile questioning is to be credited. That doesn’t detract from the wider issues at play though, obviously. Edited May 14, 2019 by KemoAvdiu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juanito Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Maybe its my long association with Thistle but I am not expecting a great deal of interesting news from tonight. Think it might be used to announce - back to training dates, training camps, friendlies, fitness changes, at best maybe a signing like Lewis Mansell. Would like to know about what is happening with the reserves, youth progression to first team, a direction for style of play or type of player we are after, but for several reasons I think it will be quite light on information. I think anybody going with the hope that an explanation or apology for the last couple of seasons performance or communication issues is out of luck. The current board or management team seem unlikely to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current board or management team seem unlikely to do that. Agree on all points. Would add that an update re any scouting team and where they operate would be good to know, given at the last meet the manager event it was disclosed that we didn't have one. Which is a club issue and not my trying to have another dig at GC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy McD Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Can someone who is going tonight please ask the question why he let Andy McCarthy go??.A young lad who came through the academy and any time he was on the park looked ok...
