Eastendtales

I've long thought that. 

He'd be a very good player in a team full of energy and making runs. 

We're far too pedestrian and he often has no attacking runs to try connect with. He tries to bring composure to our game, but it isn't effective when we're a slow, plodding bunch of chimps.

Cheers for that! Time will tell when I cave in and come crawling back...

Another absolute disaster waiting to happen.

Sure Andy Tod scored a equaliser in that game. Went down hill rapidly after that

@the saline hill puma & @Eastendtales I'm beginning to have PTSD symptoms just because its mentioned! 🤣 

Bryn fckn Haliwell! 

And Simmons backing off Lennon when he scored. Backing off. Useless chunt

I think McCann plays better when he stays on the bench.

Lots of people hearing lots of things. I'm not convinced any of it is true.

Had no idea my comment would spark a debate.

FWIW, I don't let defeats get the better of me for more than that evening at worst anymore. I'm 37, but when I was in my late teens and early 20s I used to let it get to me quite bad. That 8 1 scudding at home from Celtic? Smashed in a light switch and the bathroom wall when I still stayed at my childhood home. Next day wasn't much fun getting a bollocking on top of the hangover. 

I can't help feeling scunnered to watch now though. As most of you know, I watch from abroad. The past 35 years my weekend has been geared towards our game on a Saturday. Even over here, I'm moving plans and stressing out at missing seeing the game from the sofa at home. On my own, with no social aspect around it. I've moved Saturday plans with my wife to accommodate getting home to watch the games to which she's been very patient. I'd say I maybe see 75% of games each season. 

Between VPN issues and awful ParsTV connection this season I've not even had that. 

The last game I enjoyed watching was when we scudded QOTS 5 0 to seal the league. This season I've not enjoyed a single game. Not one, not fully. I'm happy when we win and I'd happily take season after season of grinding out results like last year but it wasn't pretty. The football has been brutal the majority of the time, really awful stuff. 

We're staring at another relegation if form doesn't change around immediately. That's bad management from top to bottom and completely unacceptable, injuries or not this season. I've backed the structure and the personnel until the Morton game. Now I find myself questioning everyone and everyone. 

I've had some personal issues to deal with and normally the football is a welcome distraction. But given the circumstances, its another fcking stress at least for 90 minutes and I could be doing without that right now. I've stuck through thick and thin before and I'll continue to but if right now I simply CBA to watch tomorrow's game, that's what I'll do. 

There's a wee thing called Karnival for the next 4 days and I've planned to go enjoy it tomorrow with some good company. I'll 100% keep an eye on livescore but until improvement is made, I'm not wasting my time working around it anymore. 

Won't be watching. Too scunnered with the club, the manager, everything right now.

What value does Meggle bring? He's got a sketchy coaching career and what exactly does he do now? Have a Friday chat with McPake on what 3 poor sods get thrown in at the back each week? 

I'm really starting to question everything about our set up. A lot of good people have now walked away from the club, it's worrying.

This showing by Walcott might be one of the worst ever in a Pars top.

A lot of them certainly start there 

Big 3 points if we can get them  might just help turn some heads back towards that 4th spot instead of down. 

Exactly, I just don't see it happening. 

However, been wrong before!

Can't see us signing anyone that would play as a winger. 

I dunno, I can't remember too many games where I've thought we've played really well. Or maybe I've missed those, e.g. Caley at home.

Well whoever it was failed to score as the Reserves lose for umpteenth time without scoring a goal.  

They wanted to mirror the first team so it only seems fair.

It's going to click this weekend. Easy home win.

Agreed. We need them now. 

I hope it didn't look like I was suggesting a change of manager. 

Last thing we need. I have faith it'll work out, nobody could foresee the injury crisis we've been plagued with. 

Just thought it was interesting to see. 

All the teams below us have changed their manager this season. Everyone from us upwards haven't. Yet.

Good performance and no injuries would be a change.

However, Utd are gettable. We shouldn't be settling for a draw.

Testimonial for Greg?

Surely isn't a surprise given the drop in prize money, but basically the same squad of players.

Peter Grant as assistant?

Chief plate spinner

Hopefully bring in Yogi for the relegation battle.
