Ange Postecoglou

Just an aside...

I would kill to be in Glasgow to debate all this * in person.

First website I look every morning (and stay all day). No matter what happens this will be a formative year.

 

Aye he's won, but not with any sort of consistency. He's labelled a football man and obsessed with football etc, only because of where he applied his trade and where he is from. Due to Australia not being a footballing nation, he stood out.

 

Isn’t cutting it? He was given no time at all to try and carry out our biggest rebuild arguably in our history. On top of that, he has been given zero help whatsoever by this inept board. We have needed a right back since January. Yet we are starting our season and we still haven’t signed one. It’s * laughable mate. We need plenty more than a right back as well. It is just a complete and utter mess, and the whole shambles is down to the board.

 

Imagine social media in 1997 after the hibs and Dunfermline games…..

 

All things considered shouldn't we be beating a newly promoted hearts with a squad and budget, even in our present state that is miles and miles below ours. If you're saying no then I'm obviously aiming too high but from where I'm standing we should be and to me that isn't cutting it.

 

I'm fine with loosing to a team like that, aslong as we play good, have plenty of opportunities to score and its just one of those things. However it wasn't. We never created enough at all and the front line really never cut them open often at all.

 

It’s just * ridiculous to question the manager at this point. He needs time.

 

It's ridiculous not to question him tbh.

 

Feel like last year.. just waiting for that turning point. Surely though, Thursday will be that point.. please.

 

He needs time, but wish he had been stronger on getting his own back room staff in..

Because last night was like watching the same pish as last season.

 

His decisions last night should undoubtedly be in question, well some of them.

What should definitely NOT be in question is his ability to manage this club.

 

His backroom staff has no bearing on the * we are dealing with right now.

This is on the board, pure and simple.

 

Football doesn’t work like that. If that was the case, then there would never be an upset. The fact is though, we have an extremely unsettled team, and we brought in a manager far too late, so he hasn’t had time to fully get his ideas across yet. Again this is because the board * about for so long with Lennon, and then after. Last night we had Bain who has been in and out of the team and isn’t good enough, Ralston who shouldn’t be here, Starfelt who had trained once, Taylor who isn’t good enough, Bitton who shouldn’t be here, Abada isn’t long in the door, Soro who hasn’t played much first team football in the past year, Forrest who isn’t long back from injury and Edouard who doesn’t want to be here but is pretty much the only option due to Ajeti being hopeless.

I said before the Champions League qualifiers that any half decent organised and settled team would cause us major problems, that goes for domestic football as well at this stage.

 

Was he no with him in Japan?

 

I blame AP too ! wot a * !!!

The players ( especially the old hands - the heart of the team ) on the other hand , have been outstanding, fighting for everything covering each other, forwards tracking back.

Committed, professional and disciplined.

Ready to literally die for the Club. Lions lead by donkeys.

 

We need to get our heads round this season being pretty erratic ,no one can come in make as many (needed ) changes and hit the ground running especially trying to play a pressing high line attacking game with virtually a defense who have not played together, it would be difficult in a defensive system but doing it the way we are is making life very difficult for yourself.
If the manager is a strong character i can see him having success eventually, players need a strong manager and they will only have belief if he has in himself , this is a high risk roll of the dice a bit like the huns did a few year ago although they didn't mess about wen they needed players .
This guy is gonna need 2 seasons to see things start to take shape and we are gonna have to be patient ,something that's alien to us after dominating for so long .

 

Bitton shouldn't have been anywhere near that team yesterday, he was at fault for their winner as well. The manager made the decision to drop Welsh for him, wrong decision. Christie one of our best performers this season dropped for an anonymous Forrest. Wrong decision. Questionable tactics regards our full backs being deployed as ball playing Centre Mids when they struggle to do their own jobs. Wrong decision. Fuxk you even said it yourself, playing Starfelt after one session and he * up for their first goal. Wrong decision. You could go on and on. Those decisions were his to make and he got them wrong so yeah so far he isn't cutting it.

 

Shut up man. The guys had his hands tied since day 0.

 

You Aussies talk so much * I don't know if this is sarcasm or for real

 

Nah you shut up man. I'm in the right to question him after yesterday. It's a worry you think he shouldn't.
