    That's not being honest, it's false

    I've been reading and posting on here for 15 years since it started early 2002 and it's predecessor before it, I was calling for McCalls heat long before he was sacked, I didn't want Chisholm to get it and was calling for change months before he was sacked, reluctantly wanted Brewster gone (hero as a kid), I.then defended Sir Craig to the hilt when eejits on here were calling for his head after we lost the last 3 games of 07/08 and started 08/09 with no wins in 5 (imagine those guys got their way), I defended Houston to the hilt for the terrific job he did and the harsh way some turned on him after an average half season, I defended McNamara because his record was excellent up until the sales of you know who the day after he beat McInnes Aberdeen at Hampden after big derby wins and is sitting 2nd/3rd, thought he deserved more time then, I was dead against Mixu appointment as that led to relegation, a competent manager or even sticking with McNamara would have led us out of 12th imo

    I have concerns about McKinnon but not at the stage of changing for a few reasons, one we are in the hunt as it stands, his home record is very very good, a free results can change things , specifically away from home and lastly I have not seen a name mentioned that will get us promoted this season, or do any better right now

    That's being honest, and that's all FACT

    The forum is a busier again! Unfortunately only because arabs are so frustrated by the lack of progress our team have made. It's even more frustrating if, like me, you feel that those who own and run the club are not as bothered as we are! OPINION.

    IF we were to change manager ( it's not at that stage just now) it would need to be someone who has a track record of coping with a job like ours or the club's mentioned above where fans will be right on the back asap, and guys who fall into that category are the like of Levein and Houston (a very very good Utd manager who also got unfair abuse from the poisonous section of our support with short memories)

    Not guys who have had no success at a bigger Scottish club (that means not a yogi hughes who failed at Hibs etc), not guys who do it at wee clubs with no pressure as we can't afford a cycle of this hence it's better to stick right now

    We have a good enough (excellent) home record under Ray that suggests if we can get a little bit of consistency away from home we'll be there or thereabouts in May, Inverness at home, Dumbarton away then St Mirren at home in the next three, if we win a couple of those this place will fall silent again like the last month
    Good last paragraph here
