When he is happy and fit, he has delivered. The difference in him from the start of the season to now, and from last season shows that I think." What a difference from how he left to go on loan under Hughes, can't think what the issue might have been then... 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number Eleven Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 Congratulations Craig let’s hope he continues enjoying his football for at least the next 2 years. It’s good to see the squad coming together for next season. This process will probably accelerate once the league title is clinched. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to think too hard to know what the issue was - it was Hughes himself. The man is an arrogant R-sole and a complete dinosaur. With hindsight, he should never have been near our club. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hindsight is an exact science GG as well you know .. I am not afraid to say it openly but he had me convinced at the time with his infectious rhetoric .. I always thought I was a good judge of character .. how wrong was I .. :-(( 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also thought he might kick the arses of some underperforming players and we'd see enough of an improvement to stave off relegation. We'll saw how that turned out. I don't want to betray any confidences but he was disliked by almost every player in the squad. Peter Grant may have proved to be an equally poor appointment but at least he was a nice guy* - fat lot of good though that was. *A real gent according to some players, but not a good manager. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secure Par Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 I also think a big improvement in the training facilities working at Pitreavie Astro has made a difference aswell. iv watched a few training sessions and they are all high tempo with a few laughs which keeps the atmosphere good. watched one finishing exercise and tbh a ball boy should have been present in the golf course with Todrovs strikes😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelty_par Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 Can see todorov and o’hara now getting moved on, to allow budget to get new strikers in. I’d keep todorov personally but hey ho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard this too that Grant was meant to be a decent coach whilst Hughes was an idiot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livipar2 Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 I’d defo keep Mehmet, Comrie and Breen. Possibly MacDonald and Todorove but not sure they would be happy with but part role. prob move on O’Hara. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
