i get where hes coming from CL cant be blamed for individual errors or players having lack of concentration and if its true that the players and even staff dont respect him or are taking the mick of out him then it makes it even more understandable how he couldnt get more out of the players. however.... some of signings and tactics have been shocking to say the least!

when he first came in. we played simple but effective football that teams couldnt deal with. in the early games we played some great stuff and DOMINATED games. there was attacking intent, movement and a desire to make things happen and to win the ball back.. we had intensity to attack and defend but then its like the falkirk game changed it all coupled with the loss of fyvie and fraser meant that the passing style we were playing was ditched. we went from looking very good to shocking in a few weeks. all confidence was lost within the team. we started trying to play a way that didnt suit us and suited any team we were playing. from that falkirk game onwards, we lost any direction of how to play and looked vulnerable to anything the opposition could throw at us.

CL isnt the only one to blame for us finishing 3rd and not getting promoted but hes had over half a season and a transfer window to get us up or in a better position to where we are now. he was brought in to get us up and we ended up finishing 3rd behind a decent but not great st mirren and an anti football livingston. thats just not acceptable. if there was more sign of him taking us forward then i would have been ok with him continuing next season but he cant be kept imo. like others have said an average manager would have got us up. we had a decent enough squad to achieve promotion but we looked lost and confused.
