    Social media and forums have created a culture of needing to know everything and it has bred such negativity and entitlement. I understand we need to know bits and bobs as it's happening but the focus is so far away from football these days it's just depressing. fans don't seem to enjoy anything these days , just looking for things to hate and complain about. Admittedly they're not having to look far just now

    He then got angry when I asked further questions saying it's got nothing to do with anyone. Even though he made it public by tweeting it earlier.
    least he never offered you a square go or threatened you with the polis lol

    It was quite a downfall, your fans couldnae wait tae turn on Jackie McNamara who was at the time your greatest manager since him McLean, all because of a modern day fitbaw clause in which he earned for development and getting players into big clubs. It was looking like a real modern day small club - punching above its level, that the rest could look up to and try to emulate. Similar to how McLean ran things but with s modern twist. Thompson’s mistake was to kick a bear with a sore head and you all were behind him. Karma got you back for that and no one man is to blame, learn your lesson and maybe in 20 years time you will have another chance of being bottom of the top league

    DOnt forget the millions not paid to small and medium local businesses. To date we have never been there and it looks like we will continue to fight that. Karma my arse - Karma would be a law that required you and the rest of the admin/liquid fc to pay back every penny you owe plus compo and interest. Then come back with her karma pish.

    We were & are being punished for kicking a bear with a sore head?
    Bizarre as it sounds mate you're maybe not far off the mark.
    And that tragically is the state of affairs.
    Sore head? Decapitation would be over generous.

    The Wee Arra Peepul were the architects of their own demise and still place the blame on others. Look in the mirror and swallow swallow.

    Sadly, there seems to be a hell of a lot more to that era than most would want to believe. I think Sackie was the eventual victim of someone elses meddling which has ensured that karma has nothing to do with it, no matter how much you froth at the mouth!

    As much as i hold ST as responsible for what has happened at our club, i really have to defend him with some of what you guys think happened at the time of real karma! ST allowed himself to be put up as a mouthpiece for the league and said a few things that other chairmen were saying in private, where ST should have kept some things. But they are only words!

    Now when it came to ACTIONS, a VOTE came along which MULTIPLE CLUBS were involved. Now i understand that 2 clubs abstained from this VOTE, but do you know for sure that ST used his VOTE against you?

    At the end of the day, it was nothing that ST/DUFC did over 3 DECADES that saw your new club start at the bottom!

    Tell you what though, i actually do wonder where your club could have been if the new club had been run properly and was able to sell out every other week as they climbed through the leagues. But you cant see past blaming everyone else for your downfall!
