Careca9 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Not worked out for curle. He’s got a tough gig but the footy is dire and we are t going in the right direction. Was worse than kewell with his team and not getting the best out of what we have now. Don’t mind losing but we aren’t 3 or 4 worse than others in this league. I’d give him 1 or 2 games more at most with 3 points min required or he goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Got to say, the interaction between fans was top notch. Our lot made so much noise and knew when to put the banners up and get the chants going, and no bother at all. If we can keep getting other clubs’ supporters on side like that it’ll do our cause well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it's not just the lack of ability, it's the total absence of anything that remotely looks like team spirit. The kids are giving it 100%, but the others look like they have no guts or fight in them whatsoever. Pathetic. They should be ashamed of themselves, and the manager should just fall on his sword asap. To be fair they are probably at an all time low with the fans. With protests, pitch invasions, tennis balls, tickets taken off sale for home fans, being bottom of the league, and a knobhead as an owner with no light at the end of the tunnel I think I'd find it hard to motivate myself. We are lifelong fans so find it difficult to understand why players seem to be not trying hard enough, but to most it's just a job that pays the bills. Imagine if this was happening at your workplace. Would you be busting a gut for your employer? Not an excuse by any means for not putting in a shift...just saying I sort of get it.

I don’t blame him, he’s just in a side that doesn’t play him right. To me has never first to the ball, not what you want in a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take your point, the atmosphere is toxic, but they are professional footballers. The season is still in its early stages. Most of the abuse is not aimed at them, and they surely know that. A young lad like Vaughan comes on and gives 100% every time. I'd find that embarrassing if i was a senior player. The manager has clearly failed to get the team pulling together. Most of these are his choices. He wanted winners. He's got a disjointed unbalanced team that is showing no professional backbone. He would've known about the limits around the embargo, but he didn't move on some of the deadwood soon enough and he was unable to get a decent striker in on time.

JED Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 My first match this season, and boy was that bad! Hadn’t realised we have stooped so low! Vaughan was streets ahead of the rest, and only others that were anywhere near were Diarra, Piergianni (both for perspiration over inspiration) and maybe the goalie who wasn’t to blame for any of the goals. All four goals were an absolute disaster defensively- the one area you’d have thought Curle would have them well drilled in. I’m afraid Jamieson is way out of his depth, even amongst his current colleagues! The only tiny glimmer of hope for me is that there were so many potential first choicers still missing, but today we were so far off that I don’t think we’d have had a chance even with them. Proud to be part of a very impressive and loud support base today - if we’re like this after 25 years of crap imagine what we’d be like if we had a good team to support!
