    Time for a big gamble

    I’ve never been one to shout for a managers head without giving him a chance, but I think the time has come to shout for McIntyre to go, we get the same excuses every week, yet we are served up the same shyte every week, this is his team, the board have backed him, but he’s done nothing to improve us, as bad as it was with McCann, I believe we would have had more victories, and at least more points.

    I’d bring in Big Rab and Barry Smith for the remainder of the season, hopefully they would motivate this shower, I don’t think there is anything to lose as we’re going down as it stands.

    If we can keep in touch with StMirren we are not relegated yet. Got to keep trying. The odd thing is that we have been complaining about the lack of defence for ages. You could see last night that the problem is that the mid field and front 2 just don't back track nearly quickly enough. It was scary how often St J forwards got a run on our defence with not a Dee near them.

    Should get the sack for last nights team selection in itself.

    Would agree with that. Not sure what he was trying to do there. But he failed miserably. Our defence is awful at dealing with cross balls, but they are so exposed with that midfield in front of them. Same every week.

    Agree re gamble but I’d give it to McPake & Gaz Irvine, both at club and know the team

    Barry has a job on his hands keeping Brechin up at the moment too

    Getting rid of McIntyre isn't a gamble, it's a necessity. He was out the game for months, seemingly untouchable, until he came out top of Nelms' in-depth analysis of win percentages. Now he's just taking the piss with his selections and personnel, maybe he prefers unemployment. I think McPake would be a good choice, did he ever play under Yogi Hughes

    Barry has a job at Brechin and bigram isn't even allowed into the players lounge for a cup of tea
