Turner has been poor all season but he hasn’t got the physicality to be a holding midfielder, that is totally down to BG and Mark Wilson No idea what game BG or Mark Wilson were watching yesterday but taking off a fit Stanway who was one of our better players and also fit to get round the park was ridiculous, especially when you had a non player in Robbie Crawford and Logan Chalmers who was having an absolute nightmare. Lawless and Ablade should have been on at half time so they could actually affect the game .

Re McInroy and Alston , there was always a threat that they could score a goal for you , now absolutely nothing .

I’m not sure about that LIB , I think we’re looking at Scottish based players as having to entice players from down South or elsewhere has a cost to it , relocating etc. I’m not sure the money on offer would be too much of an enticement

No

The ironic issue with the 3/5 at the back and such a narrow midfield is that it doesn’t suit BG as a football player who relies on crosses in the box to score his goals . Maybe our team today wasn’t fit enough Just Saying !

And why did Andy Murdoch leave in solidarity of Brian Welsh ?

Got absolutely no faith in our Board of Directors.

Hope you’re not making this up ?

Think some of us are looking at this with rose tinted glasses, re Doolan he was a bit unlucky losing Myles Roberts and Harry Milne in the transfer window, also BG getting sent off against Falkirk didn’t help also making him unavailable for the Raith Rovers game . Doolan left us 10 points off 3rd place and that’s where we still are . Doolan would have got slaughtered for drawing with bottom of the league Airdrie at Firhill It’s been better in patches over the last 4 or 5 matches but the lack of creativity is an issue playing such a narrow system with 3 at the back and having to rely on Megwa and Reid for width . Hopefully we keep improving.

Tell me McCalls credentials to be a SD Has he got a proven track record to bring Academy prospects to first team football Has he got the Coaching Credentials or indeed his Coaching Badges to progress our Football Club If we’re going to be a “ progressive “ football club how can re - employing a sacked manager be the way forward.

Listened to McCall on the radio , think he’s got memory loss re James Penrice , eventually never played him and swapped him for Tiff . If McCall gets the SD job it’s an absolute joke after we’ve just sacked him on his managerial record . Only PTFC !!

Tell me if there any Sporting Directors in the Championship at our level ?

I’m sure there will be incentives but the ambiguity of that probably won’t make it that enticing if you’re trying to pay your mortgage. I work within the Hospitality Sector and the salary of General Manager is circa £35k per year . Not sure the jobs are comparable in terms of qualifications etc Re Business Development, it’s easier to attract advertising etc if the product on the park is right , IMO businesses want to be associated with a successful team ,possibly that’s the part we should try to get right first.

I’m probably making an educated guess , probably in the region of 70/80 k per year which isn’t great in football terms for a Sporting Director. Just now we’re advertising for a business development manager @ 40k per year which says it all

It’s an absolute nonsense going in this direction and I believe the remuneration probably on offer is a stumbling block to get an experienced SD within football. It’s obviously going to impact the playing budget within our Club which won’t help the new management team. Ill thought out plan by our Board of Directors
