    Laurie or PH to end of season??

    Last night was dire.

    Another big match - not in terms of quality but as to where we are in this league - yet we were awful first half. Lucky to get level and then blew up through some absolutely amateur hour defending of a straightforward long ball straight up the park.

    The whole thing was an absolute joke. Livi had 2 goals given offside that were marginal and could have scored more.

    Since Shabba came in the wheels have come off. He has no idea how to sort things

    The formation, the organisation and the motivation of the players has been terrible. Stanton and M Smith we’re the only ones to emerge with any credit last night. I’d also add that durnan remains an important player but the standing off of players for their goals applied to all the defence

    ST may not want to spend money on compo on his latest terrible appointment but we are actually going to miss the playoffs if he doesn’t act now.

    Laurie got a reaction from the players last time he was in charge and would be low cost which could appeal to ST! I don’t know what Laurie is doing in this mess up at the moment. He does though seem to be telling Shabba things all the time on sidelines. The players just don’t respect Shabba and that is obvious.

    PH is available as an alternative. A safe pair of hands who knows this division.

    Anything has got to be better then the complete mess on the pitch right now.

    Beaten comprehensively by Falkirk and Morton. The performances have been abject and action needs to be taken now

    The problem I have with this is Ellis has fyvie and fraser, I solely blame there injuries for our downward spiral, the players know there a ****e team without them and they’ve gave up, its embarrassing

    Just go with the status quo, limp to the end of the season and then hope/pray

    1. The Snake inserted a clause which terminates CL should he not get promoted.

    2. The Snake leaves the club, and it enters the hands of someone who cares/has the best interests at heart.

    Oh, and for good measure;

    3. Let every player out of contract leave.

    I’d rather be ****e next season trying to build a young side that has the potential for good things the year after. If we are skint budget accordingly, fans would understand that, they don’t understand buying journeymen ****e for decent wages and still being eye-gougingly bad and non-competitive.

    In summary;

    **** OFF STEPHEN THOMPSON

    Solely blame? Get a phucking grip eh, they are good players not world beaters.

    The remaining players are poor and don’t have the balls for a fight but they’re ****ieness is not linked to losing two ‘star’ players.

    Very true, those injuries ended the belief of the rest of the team

    Houston did an impressive job at Falkirk for 3-4 years (Scottish Cup Final, 2nd behind Sevco and ahead of Hibs) until it went stale this season with poor backing from the board and an aging team

    We need someone who cab organise a team, can get a team to play for him and not give up (fight to the end to get a win or draw, all of which he definitely could and has a track record doing, also smart with the press stuff

    To quote The Eagles shedka, I think you'll have to wait until Hell Freezes Over before Houston comes back to work with the Snake.

    Get CL away to f*ck right now and give us some probably forlorn hope that we can improve enough to stay in the play off spots. Once in the play offs anything can happen! With that clown as a manager I fear like others that we will suffer the total embarrassment of failing to reach the play offs. Houston, Hughes, Cathro anybody I fear would be better than CL.

    I agree, but to appoint Cathro would be a £ucking car crash, we need experience an older head, someone hows been there before Yogi or Derek Adams, whoever it is cannot be the cheap option.

    But you can be rest assured ST will be in cafe Nero on monday using there wifi......classy chairmen eh!!!
