Season ticket purchased today.

I had planned to get mines on Monday past, but I’m now waiting to see which league we will be in, I’m now in my 70s and I’ve had enough of sitting in the freezing cold winters watching championship football, I’ve not missed a season ticket since the Bobby cox stand opened, the sheer lack of any dig in the derbies this season have scunnered me

The performances in the derbies imo is massive,during my time we have had more lows than highs but have never really questioned our effort or the meaning of the fixture for the fans,this season 3 out of 4 we have started slowly and lucky not to have lost these 3 games but for a bit of luck.Looking at both clubs squads you could argue we have the better players and on a par at worst so why are we struggling against them?Managers like doc,bomber,barrie smith,jim duffy got this fixture,Im no sure Pressley does.

Not confident that Elvis will change the attitude of this set of players. If he can get them fired up, that would be a good reason to stick with him for next season.

For someone who's massively overachieved it wud be incredible even for Nelmsy to punt him.

Doon by Xmas 😆

Agree with that, but if he gets us relegated then I think he will be made the scapegoat. What is it with our teams that they seem so toothless and appear to lack a battling spirit?

They don't .....they never showed it Sunday.

It wasn't good tactics or team selection on Sunday.

Battled back v dabs last time, battled back v Killie, battled at Celtic in the cup, battled back v Hibs.....probably others I can't quite think of off top of head.

This isn't a team that lack fight.

Just a very poor day at the office with every little bit of luck going against.

They have identified they need more physicality.....let's give them a chance to get a bit.

What gets under my skin.

We don't need loans.....3 mths into season.....how come other teams get AHH these loans

We need a manager who can motivate and scream and shout......Bomber must go 😂

We want entertainment .....3 mths btm of league, numerous 2-3......just ****ing win.

We want to win.....3 mths of hoofball....we want entertained.

It's a near impossible task for a Dee manager.....that's why none go onto better things.

Now the running of the CLUB.....booooo

[Returnofrros]

I think as well the goal that got chopped off took the wind out of our sails a bit.

It was much more even at that point but the wee bit of momentum building was lost.

Would it have changed the result, hard to say as the two 2nd half goals we lost were very poor but if we had went in 1-1 at ht it wouldn't have been undeserved.

Not an excuse, an observation.

Doherty got punted after almost taking us to Europe in his first season,bowyer after getting us promoted.
Pressley cud easily get binned

On that basis he should get binned, awful manager.

AHH but I was asking for too much when we nearly got Europe ....I was told consolidate.

You can't pick and choose when you succeed.

He is NOT the manager.

No but you can expect at least another go at rectifying your mistakes in the second season.
I'm not fussed what they decide with the manager as there are pros and cons both scenarios.

Elvis is on record on 3 separate occasions that I can find acknowledging the importance of ANY local derby to supporters.

Bomber 💕 I don't think won a derby as manager and neither do I think did Barry Smith.

Both had far better records as players.

Duffy had a very good record as manager but a helluva lot better players at disposal

Docherty highlight was the 2-4 thumping.

Docherty and Bowyer got punted mainly because both had strained relationships with Nelms despite Strachan trying to save the former.

It looks from the outside the Elvis has a decent enough relationship with Nelms.

If Elvis goes it will be him choosing to......I wouldn't blame him in all honesty......our fans are brutal at times.

To keep some Dee's happy, don't FFS qualify for Europe, don't dare have us near relegation in basically a 7 team league and Entertain us. 😃

Hard task
