  1. I'd still be angry if it was one of those two, or any other player, because as I've said above it's a despicable way to treat your employees. You do not make an agreement with someone that guarantees their livelihood, then snatch it away from them just like that. It's cruel, unfair and dishonourable and I'm angry and disappointed with the club for allowing it to happen to any of its employees.
  2. I have just read the article and am fizzing with rage about this - more so than before. What a despicable way to behave towards someone. If I were Dennis I think I'd consider suing for constructive dismissal. I wish Brewster would just get tae Falkirk and take one or two other people with him before they completely implode the club we love. Very, very angry about this whole situation. :(
  3. To me, Heather Mills comes across as somebody who has a difficult relationship with the truth. She does herself no favours at all with her strident, aggressive behaviour, and the sad thing is that her little daughter will probably grow up to imitate this behaviour. ?24 million not enough? How the other half lives, eh?
  4. I for one will be absolutely disgusted if we lose Dennis because of the bloody-mindedness of one or two individuals. As Caley Stan says, Dennis is a legend. This decision makes no footballing sense, just as the club's treatment of Barry Wilson made no sense. It's also a downright dishonourable way of dealing with someone.
  5. He's not the only problem, but he is unfortunately a big part of the problem. Several personnel changes are needed IMHO, including, but not limited to the management/coaching staff.
  6. Good point, Alex. When I first heard what had happened to Dennis I did wonder whether he had grounds for some kind of legal action. What I do know is that NOBODY deserves to be treated in this way by their employers, and especially not someone who's been so loyal and has made himself a legend with his goalscoring record.
  7. If Dennis is old at 31, then that must make Brewster a real Methuselah. 31 is really not that old, and a player in his early 30s can, provided he looks after himself, carry on for some years. There's plenty of life left in Dennis yet.
  8. And neither will half the support, by the looks of it. And if so, the powers that be will only have themselves to blame.
  9. If all this is true then I'm shocked and disgusted. What kind of way is this to treat a loyal employee who actively wants to play for us? At this rate we're well and truly going to **** in a handcart.
  10. That's what we would all like to know... :(
  11. Even if the club is in profit it doesn't give them license to treat the fans -the paying customers- so dismissively.
  12. Yes, in some ways this is what seems to be happening, but the sad thing is that there's absolutely no need to treat the fans so dismissively. It's especially sad because our club didn't use to be like this, and also worrying because they could well end up shooting themselves in the foot because of it.
  13. You took the words right out of my mouth...
  14. Definitely agree, and my mum, who's at every home game and has been a season ticket holder for about five years also feels the same. What we've noticed is that the "family" spirit that took us into this league has evaporated. When we were in the lower divisions and when we first got into the SPL there was a definite feeling of community, of "us against the world", and the club seemed to be much more concerned with the opinions and welfare of the fans than it is now. And I think that's really sad.
  15. I think you've hit the nail on the head there, GJ.
  16. On the contrary, perhaps it's time Brewster's cheerleaders had a bit of a reality check. How many more dire performances do there have to be before certain people realise that he's not the manager they think he is?
  17. I agree, quizzer. I really don't see why normal fans should have their afternoons spoilt by this sort of behaviour. I also fail to see the point of going to a match at all if all you do is get completely legless in hospitality and end up incapable of actually taking in what's going on around you. It kind of defeats the purpose of actually going to watch football.
  18. Well said Charles! :clapping03:
  19. Right from the beginning I've felt very strongly that this is no way to run a football club, especially in the current financial climate, and what's happening to Gretna now proves it.
  20. I certainly hope so, beachcomber!
  21. I'm with you, Johndo. It's good to be in the SPL and it's been satisfying to prove a lot of people wrong, not least Graeme "I'll eat my hat" Spiers. However, I do miss the excitement of the cup, taking on bigger teams and causing cup shocks, and getting those memorable days out at Hampden. Wish there was some way we could bring that feeling back again.
  22. Had he not been given the standard Romanov knife in the back treatment at Hearts he might have been fairly successful with them. However, I guess we'll never know now.
  23. If that's the case, then we really have to be asking serious questions about whether he's up to the job.
  24. I'd much rather have this than have someone out there who obviously doesn't give a tinker's cuss what happens.
