    re: St Johnstone's late goal beats Motherwell

    I would like to know what Stuart McCall could do differently. He has no money and keeps losing his best players. Not to mention a horrendous injury list. There are some people who think that if he played X,Y or Z player, and used this formation, everything would change.. . Maybe this works in Fantasy football, but in the real world you can only work with what you have got.

    Have we really missed Hutchy, Faddy and Anier that much this season so far? Our playing problems lie elsewhere.

    Bheron. You are right we can only work with what we have but McCall is paid to manage what we have and we only have the dross he signs and resigns. The money that has been lost due to pathetic tactics is down to him Hundreds of thousnds of pounds .In any other walk of life if we turned up and cost our company that amount through incompatance we would get our jotters. We are that skint ( despite the wonderful job he has done in years gone by ) we cant even afford to get rid of him. His first eleven are rotten as is his bench. We get relegted we are finished.

    I will probably regret asking this, but how exactly has he lost us hundreds of thousands of pounds?.

    This years European game to start with. Disaster . As many pathetic dismal domestic cup ties you care to mention in the last three years. That should cover it quite comfortably. I dare say he must also have some kind of say in the poor youth set up.

    I dunno how much say he has over the youth set-up - in an ideal world the first team manager, possibly just passing through, shouldn't have that much control over it but you never know.

    How much money has McCall made us with considerably better than expected league finishes? I've no idea but it should be mentioned whenever moaning about money lost through the cups - if anyone is still interested in being remotely balanced.

    Handsome . He has indeed brought money in. However we are probably on the worst financial footing in the league. Europe for numerous years high up the league. All well and good and I have enjoyed it. I honestly believe we are going down a path that could be catastrophic for the club and I dont think McCall is the man to fight in that kind of battle. No matter what anybody thinks the players he has at his disposal are down to him. Not me you or anybody else.

    i would say that the euro defeat was more down to a certain player giving away 3 penalties than the managers choice of team. Very few teams can over come giving away so many penalties and had it not happened then the team would have easily cruised though to the next round.
