puggsy_ton Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Out of boredom and curiosity how would you react to the following scenario? Iron's and Collin's get sacked first thing Monday morning. Someone takes over the team - this can be anyone and isn't the important part. Next game the players turn in a blinder and have a convincing win whereas up to now they haven't even looked interested (especially today going by the reports). Would you be happy with that?

Ghost Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I think the players should all get a severe boot in the balls if it happened, i would start the que Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irvineTON Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 It wouldn't actually surprise me if this was the case!!! The players are a bunch of w*nkers. Either that, or they are in fact actually really s*** at their profession of choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecstatic! Player power removes Manager? Happens all the time in football, plus DI deserves all he gets. Won't make it to next weekend I think.

crdwellbar Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Thats a good question, if a new manager came in and we played great on the first game u would expect that but if we then played great every other week i believe that would just prove how bad irons was, i wouldnt quetion the players as they are just human and if your not happy with how your boss treat you then u dnt perform your best for him. So i would love it if the scenario you talk about happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LargsTON Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Most of them aren't fit to wear the shirt. I know you're probably referring to guys like Finlayson but at this moment in time I want to see Morton players with heart more than ability. Both would be a bonus. The current squad's a ****ing disgrace. "CORNBEEF IS A BELLEND" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puggsy_ton Posted September 19, 2009 Author Share Posted September 19, 2009 If it gets us 3 points I would be happy Even thought it may have cost us 12 points in the process (if we had won more of our opening games) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EanieMeany Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Even thought it may have cost us 12 points in the process (if we had won more of our opening games) Look, the players haven't cost us 12 points. The manager not being able to come up with a stable starting eleven, or even formation after a full season in charge, and a lengthy pre-season is what has cost us points, simple as that. Yes, there have been a few individual errors and poor performances but far better teams with far better players than us have suffered because of an abysmal manager. It's not just our players who's heads go down in the circumstances we find ourselves in - in fact, a player who could stroll on continuing to play at the best of his ability would be a rare thing. The buck stops at Irons, and Irons alone. AWMSC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrissiboi Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I think things will take a while to turn things round , Irons has totally striped the team of any confidence and that takes time to build. Our strongest area was our defence look 11 goals in 3 games . We aren't able to hurt teams and its just putting more pressure on the defence. Were fecked the longer he stays and his slithery friend can join him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether they like the formations or not, the manner in which they have allowed defeat is nothing short of disgraceful. The buck stops with Irons, but they players have take a long hard look at themselves as they are an embarrassment to the club! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The buck stops with Irons, but they players have take a long hard look at themselves as they are an embarrassment to the club! Well, I wasn't there today, but last week, for example, I didn't see a team that went out with the intention of losing. I seen a collection of players going about there business, and coping actually not too badly early on despite being utterly shapeless. After the first goal - which, as it happens was as a direct result of the poor tactical "system", it all descended further into disarray as 10 outfielders tried to work out between them just what exactly they were meant to be doing. The self same thing happened at Firhill too. The players do well enough in the early stages despite being unorganised, the opposition manager quickly realises that Morton aren't, after all, "hard to beat", makes a slight change and the roof caves in because we aren't in any position to make moves to combat the changes from the other team. What little semblance of shape we have disappears as the players flounder looking for guidance which doesn't come, the heads go down and more goals follow. The managers an idiot, and that is what is costing us far more than anything else. AWMSC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunning1874 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I'd be delighted that we actually won a game, but I'd be joining the aforementioned queue to boot the players that haven't been putting the effort in in the balls.

The manager has, in all probablilty, run out of time. I'd love for us to clear out the squad with him. Other than Cuthbert, Graecen and McAlister, I wouldn't shed a tear for any of them on their way out. An absolutely gutless group of 'professionals'.

Mayos Noun Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 This will most likely be the case. The players are short in confidence and don't know where they're supposed to be playing each week. McAlister is either on the left, through the middle or upfront and has never been tried on the right. Finlayson is consistently awful. A new manager, a stable formation and a good system would bring back the confidence. I'm sure we'd turn things around. We need a decent manager though. We are Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problems in our squad run quite deep though. More than confidence, we lack quality, and we lack pace - particularly middle to front.

I'd be happy with the victory but upset with the manner of it. It's certainly the case that good man-management can bring out the best in players (and in fact workers in all walks of life) and bad management can do the opposite. But to completely chuck it and then just come back into form as if nothing had happened would suggest to me that at least some players were taking the piss.
