If you are happy with Clement and how we are playing fine, but some fans are rightly sick to the back teeth watching the same dross week in week out. It doesn't seem to matter what 11 he selects we are a terrible football team. No style, no pace, no imagination, no fight, nothing. We are playing the worst football since returning to the top flight, the results are mirroring this.That's all down to the manager. We / he talks about rebuild - its 2 years since we got to EL Final and only 1 of that starting 11 is in our current squad. We've had our rebuild - it's failed. If Gio and Beale deserved the sack, why doesn't Clement? GvB didn’t deserve the sack IMO. He wasn’t given funds to rebuild after we sold players. Incredibly though the board did give funds to the rookie Beale 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gio and Beale deserved the sack, why doesn't Clement? No, no - I've only responded to your random 23 games point. Here's the last 23 games from our last few managers: Warburton - 12W, 5D, 6L Clement - 12W, 5D, 6L Gerrard - 13W, 5D, 5L Beale - 13W, 3D, 7L GvB - 11W, 4D, 8L Caixhinha - 13W, 3D, 7L What does this random nonsense tell us? GvB was the worst because he lost 8 of his last 23? Or that Caixhinha was the best because he won the most? Nonsense. You cannot take a random number of games to suite your argument. My rant is over. Now, to take the rest of your post: no, I'm not happy. I've made several posts, backed up by my beloved xG, saying how poor we are at creating chances. I said it's around what Beale was achieving (even worse than, maybe? I can't recall). I would be quite happy to see him sacked. My other point elsewhere (about how I couldn't see him getting sacked) was just a judgement based on how he fits in with the off-field project and our financial situation. It's not that I want it, it's just what I think based on the circumstances. The rebuild has barely started. We've not built anything yet. Hopefully the new CEO will have some ideas on the manager's position and everything else. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a manager to identify a style that compliments the limited resources we have and make us difficult to beat. Is it weird that I keep making longing glances at Muscat? As stupid as it sounds, I think we are difficult to beat, generally - our main issue is creating chances. Conceding a goal a game is fine if we can score three or four. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uilleam 5,960 Posted November 24 Share Posted November 24 Don't shoot the messenger.... From our man on the rails Clement has left by mutual consent. Alex Rae will take interim charge for Nice and St Johnstone at the weekend. Mcinnes, Gerrard and Potter are rumoured to be the top 3 candidates for the job. Official statement on Clements departure expected around 6pm this evening 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season was written off before a ball was kicked IMO. No one can look at our transfer activity in the summer and think we are better off. We were told we need to dump wages and that’s why. This is just going to be a long season of turgid dross we all need to get through and hope that recruitment improves and we somehow manage to bring in a few big fees for the likes of Butland, Jefte or Sterling. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
