Mr Andrew Coleman

The club is in a malaise, your correct.

Only signing two players on loan after 4 months of panning is unforgivable, even if you are living in dreamland.

How anyone can stick up for Coleman after this latest shower of shit is quite frankly bizarre.

Not so much sticking up for him as being a realist.

Coleman has plenty of sticks I can beat him with - his inability to fire Williams weeks ago being one - but I am not going to beat him with one that he can't do anything about. And our lack of financial strength in this window was well documented even before the window began.

Are they going to shake this fists in frustration if they see Coleman.

We did fuck all about it when the sells out hung around the club like a bad smell.

I don't know, depends how organised we are. A few sweary fans on here will do nothing.

He should have numerous targets for each position. Relying on one or two is grossly naive and incompetent

Who is going to do the organising?

He even told us so in September.

He can't do anything about another shambolic transfer window? That's not being a realist, it's more being taken for a mug.

Nah. We needed to be ready for all eventualities.

You plan for bids coming in for your better players like Grimes or Darling. You have a plan ready to replace them. So you are ready to move if/when that happens.

As per usual, he was not ready. As evidenced by the fact he's just taken a bloke on loan for nearly double Grimes's wages, which pretty much defeats the object of getting rid of Grimes to begin with.

Bloke is out of his depth - no amount of whataboutery will change that.

Seriously Coleman has some chutzpah. How on earth does he think he’s qualified to run a football club? I’ll give this to the Yanks - they’ve never been short of confidence.

Pass, any ideas?

I was happy to treat this as a clean slate as the first window since the takeover, and give him a fresh chance to prove he's learned from previous mistakes. I wanted to eat humble pie.

But after this window him, Morris and Cravatt can go fuck themselves. They've learnt nothing, and the guff we've been fed about new scouting models and data analytics etc bearing fruit is just gaslighting an entire fanbase.

I still think we'll just about stay up this season but next season we're 100% going down, they are clueless. It's a slow motion car crash.

Same here. I didn’t have high expectations, but they’ve somehow managed to not reach them all the same. Although on paper O’Brien for this season and Melker for next seems good).

Not focussing on getting football leadership in a priority ( DOF or even a consultant) has done it for me. That should have been his top priority.

 

[Niigata Jack]

It's been said that players would be reluctant to commit if we were to sack Williams in the run-up to the window closing; some would say not sacking Williams is the real sticking point.

Well any player with any sense could see what's happening here, any players who were thinking of coming here would have known that Williams was on borrowed time to me if we had sacked him 2 or 3 weeks ago or will sack him next week it wouldn't made any difference to a players decision come here or not.

I can guarantee that the person who is liked up and supposedly coming won't come in the end

Thought so. There's no appetite for it.

I'm just a random p1ssed off long time season ticket holder.
I do remember doing the march from Castle Gardens & Trust meetings at the Patti though.
Yes the support is passive at the moment but I do think it's changing, whether it'll lead to any real action i guess is a different thing.

All the shouting and fist waving is done on line these days.
