Fair statement. We can't expect Fraser to be a top class keeper as he is young and was still learning his trade when he was thrust into the limelight on Browns departure. He generally has more than accounted for himself but as last week showed still makes errors which are then compounded by lack of confidence. Esson is now being put into a similar situation that Fraser found himself in :thumb04: :018: good/bad hmmm tomorrow will tell but Fraser would most likely have been a liability as he would have little confidence and the defence would have little faith in him. Guess fingers crossed.

I really don't know though, i'd have to see the wages on offer. Realisticly he couldn't have thought he would pip Boruc to the first team spot and I'd rather grab any chance of getting into the national team with both hands - to me thats the biggest honour any player can have. He'll probobly be on his way soon enough when his contract expires anyway.......so hopefully then he'll challenge for a place in the national squad. Too many move at the first prospect of big money and end up going into oblivion. Mark went to be no.2 and when the american arrives no.3. His future is in the past.

You are bang on. When we played Celtic we lost. No-one called for anyone's head, no-one asked which players should be out the door in January, and why was that? It was because the team gave 100%, battled through the game and lost to the (arguably) better side on the day. On another day we might have won, or snuck a draw, but it didnt happen. Last week we basically laid down for Rangers and allowed them to do whatever they wanted. There was none of the heart, spirit or passion from the Celtic game and no apologies, just excuses. If we played every game like the Celtic game, we would be a lot higher up the table and win or lose we would be able to write screeds of positivity about our team ........ Scotty for our new manager

I understand the man trying to save his job but surely from his comments how can he hold his job if we don't take 3 points from hibs

If you had supplied a link to the article then I may have commented doh !!

With 80% in favour of his departure how can they possibly give their vote of confidence, that said if they do so we only have to look at other managers that have been given a vote of confidence from the board. One further defeat and offski

Brewsters treatment of Wyness was shocking - he should still be here and our no. 1 Striker. Rankin leaving - again Brewsters mismanagement of a player who'd still be here if it wasnt for Brew telling the press "he can go in January for the right price"........ Parky leaving - due to personal reasons.... Bayne - ok not the best striker in the world but could still be doing a better job than the VERY inexperienced strikers we have just now , NONE of which have any SPL experience / calibre - mismanagement again...... The team cant pass, keep the ball , they sit off teams too often and sit too deep under Mr Brewster. Some of the substitutions baffle me and im tired of taking the lead in games and end up losing them. And the cherry on the top for me is BREWSTERS RECORD AT DUNDEE UNITED = why was he ever given a 2nd chance at this club..............? I was never for his re-appointment. Hes had long enough to prove that hes NOT the man for the job - Please step aside Brewster Well said that man

The folk on here have more sense than I gave them credit for. 85.92% currently vote for the sack

Brewster was an asset as a striker bringing folk like Dargo to believe in themselves. As a manager Don't make me laugh. He couldn't manage a Pi$$ up in a brewrey. Never could never will. Don't fire him though, get a gun and shoot him.

We expected to come away with our heads held high not intending to come away with our tail between our legs Just nearly went 4 down to a boyd attempt :'( :'( Correction we have gone 4 down

Ah Memories - played for Hilton Athletic and then Camerons. The main team of the day was Lochardil Thistle closely followed by Camerons.

Fair enough Brand is an a$$ & Ross overpaid but it was a schoolboy prank that should never have happened. The problem that needed to be solved was more the fact that it was recorded and then aired. The producer should be the person taken to task not the ross/brand pair.

I think a lot depends where we are sitting around xmas, if we are sitting bottom I dont think the board will have much choice, however if we are anything better than bottom I dont think the club will get rid of him. The board have never had to sack a manager thus far and I dont think they will change that pattern in the near future We brought him in first time as a striker/manager but second time it was an easy & cheap option. Time to correct a mistake made in haste and get someone with nounce

I trust when you refer to non caley fans in fact you refer to Thistle fans I trust you mean that these friends rate ICT players as that other team you refer to went out of business about 15 years ago :thumb04:

It sounds a plausible clause

:thumb04: I agree

You are just getting old :018: Never heard re demolition though

Just read the thread and it appears that all parties were willing participants and the banter was good humoured so fail to see why it has had a heavy handed lock down

Thanks

What thread ??

As you say these clubs are in debt but they also have assets that are greater than their debts. I tend to agree that the wages & transfer fees are ridiculous but as long as a team is willing to pay then there is a team willing to sell. I guess with the new influx of money to Man City that things could increase in the short term as each of them try and secure a champions league position by the cheque book.

I gave them my bank details but they returned my overdraft

Fair point but still prefer the old way, stick the name on the shorts

Never done benefits in my life, and don't intend to start now. If cleaning toilets is the only job available to me and it earns me a living - i'll do it. If you do that then you would put IHE out of a job
