If you watch football and support any team from anywhere in the world you will see that every player, no matter who they are, makes mistakes. Why some of the people on here find a target and then get at them non stop, I am not too sure. At the moment Considine is the chief target followed by the manager.
I would like us to have a better left back. I think Considine is too slow and lacks the close control for that role. But I think he is a decent defender, and he works very hard to be the best that he can be for the club I support. Over his time at the club Considine has been played by various managers so it would seem that they agreed that he isn't a bad defender. Yet to read the posts in this thread you would think he was Darren Mackie on crutches. Would you prefer to have a wage thief in his place?
As the season goes on a number of people on here will single out a target and then basically post hate mail at that player. It's my considered opinion that you should be ashamed of yourselves. How would you like it if a group of people came to your work every day and told everyone who would listen how bad you are at your job? That's what you do. Hardly useful.
I would like us to have a better left back, but that doesn't seem to be a priority for the manager. So we just have to make the best of it. We have been second best team in Scotland for four years. Should have been the year before that too. I would prefer us to be best not second best, but the reality is that a couple of teams can spend more on one player than we would on the entire squad. Our staying anywhere near being in touch is down to the manager.
Speaking of managers, perhaps you guys would like to go back to pre 2014. Remember how that was? Who is it you think we would attract that is better than DM? We don't have a history of getting amazing managers.
Now you can yell happy clapper if you like, you probably will. Not too sure when happy became an insult. I am also not sure why anyone being positive is such anathema to you. I don't know why you cannot get behind the team you claim to support, but if you really want to behave like that I think you should shift your allegiance to the PJMs.
