Simple question- should Mackinnon go ?

[Jedi u-Knighted]

Things were so much simpler when I was growing up playing football. I just turned up and knew I was either gonna be playing left or right wing or through the middle. The rest of my team mates (mckinnon included btw) knew where they playing and we just played. Can never remember learning any sh!te about formations at training and the teams I played for won the odd league and cup now and again. We just went out and tried to score as many goals as possible and it was usually good fun..

Ah the good old days..., 😊

aye those were the days. Straight from kick off id get out of the way of any fancy play or dangerous tackles and poach anything i could. I was a right greedy lazy fecker but scored a bucket load i was the 1 in 4231 obviously - 4 defenders 2 midfield 3 strikers and the lazy fecker standing on the six yard line

You never know SB, I may have laid a few on a plate for you with my dazzling pace 😂. Can't remember too many idle buggers in any team I played for tho. 😉

Because I find it pathetic that folk would act like that. Managers that have been terrible in one job have done well elsewhere and vice versa so to have that attitude of just waiting for the slightest thing to go wrong so your can jump all over and say you were right is so consistent with modern football fans. I have it personally.

Act like what? have an opinion that an appointment is not the right appointment based on his previous, lack of experience?

[offshore_arab83]

Great managers such as McLean, Stein & Ferguson were not necessarily demonstrative.
Not all managers react like Klopp going mental when they score.
Or constantly waving their arms, pointing, shouting & running about the technical area.
It's up to the individual's personality.

Just on that point, who was our last demonstrative manager?

JYM, Stein and Ferguson mentioned in a Ray McKinnon thread, deary me...

Nope, as I've said I've no issue with people feeling it might not work but this "I knew" stuff is beyond smug. You didn't know anything, like I said managers who have been awful at one club do well at another and vice versa. Waiting for him to fail rather than backing him until he does is pathetic

I disagree, plenty, including myself were not overly excited with the appointment and predicted it wouldnt work. Its looking more and more that the predictions are sadly coming true, no one wanted him to fail as no one wants another season in this sh1te league and being honest i dont think we can survive another season down here with zero TV revenue and the likes of Dumbarton etc coming to Tannadice paying at the gate, no way can we afford to stay down another year in what is arguably the weakest championship for f ucking years! I dont think anyone hasnt backed him, ST has backed him with money and we the support have backed him with significant season ticket sales, two years in a row!
