Can anyone raise their hand and honestly say that they envisaged us to be, approaching 5 months later in March, sitting in 10th? - and 11 pts off 4th, and more points behind the league leaders than we have amassed in total? 2. Especially after our chairman stated her pick to replace AA was the outstanding choice and that she was "blown away by Gary's interview preparation" and that "he had done an analysis of each player, identified a training schedule to deal with the fitness levels and pulled together a vision of how to get Thistle playing well enough to secure promotion," On these 2 points alone it is clear to everyone that the appointment of GC has been an abject and unmitigated disaster and failure, and both the chair and manager should be nowhere near Firhill by 1st June, no matter what position we finish in come 4.50pm on 4th May. Factual, clear and pretty damning. The appointment of GC has not delivered on the purpose of him being appointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eljaggo Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 The root of the problem is Jacqui Low. She is the Weirs' placewoman, and is in complete control of the Club in the absence of any direct involvement by the Weirs. It is almost certainly Low that is behind the spin in every Club statement that increasingly are completely detached from reality. She alone is responsible for hiring Caldwell and for his continued presence at the Club. She is controlling the main fans trust through Club appointed trustees, when the two fans' trusts (who together own 26% of the shares) should be having a meaningful say in Club decisions at this critical time. Caldwell has duped Low, whose knowledge about football is less than the square root of bugger all. The fact that Low appointed Caldwell despite others' opposition almost certainly means that she will be reluctant to admit her mistake, and that means Caldwell might be here longer than is healthy for the Club. If the worst happens and we are relegated, then it is hard to see how the training ground could be justified given more pressing calls on any support the Weirs' will hopefully continue to provide. The panic hiring of elderly players by Caldwell in January also puts a question mark on the relevance of the Academy. Who will benefit from these young players if short termism continues to determine recruitment and team selection at the Club? A failure to be promoted back into the Championship in 2020 would leave the Club with the huge albatross of a 10,000 seat stadium round its neck, with no one to fill it and no funds to pay for it. There is however the tantalising option of selling it and moving to a new small stadium somewhere north of Glasgow.. On the 20th January, I emailed Pauline Graham who is chair of the main fans trust and asked how many shares each of the PTFC directors held, and what were the impediments to a fans' trust representative getting a seat on the Board. I have yet to receive a reply. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a small to midsize business on the turnover we have it’s almost unique for none of the board to have a decent amount of the ownership or their own cash tied up in it. I audit many engineering and service companies in my current job and I yet to come across this scenario. Even if Lowe is placed their by Colin Weir, the Weirs do not own any of the company (club). The trust appears set up in such a way as to ensure that it is controlled by Lowe which is worrying, as it was meant to grow fan ownership and engagement, currently that isn’t happening, it’s more spin. It seems very strange that the previous board who own substantial shares are not seen around Firhill especially the directors box as guests. Are they not welcome from our current board? Do they want to distance themselves from our current board? I don’t know but something seems wrong.

jaf Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 10 hours ago, Norgethistle said: Caldwell most definitely isn’t the solution, his apparent arrogance and inability to see when he gets it wrong or the acceptance of the magnitude of the situation we find ourself in. Whilst for him or any manager to come in and completely reverse 18 months of decline on the park overnight would have been a near impossible task, he should have been able to steady the ship and reduce the bleeding till the transfer window, but he never. For that he should have walked. Whilst his transfers and performances since new year till 3:45 on Saturday was an improvement, the teams we beat included Alloa, Stranraer and East Fife, hardly world class. The collapse in last 2 games show we still have massive issues. Caldwell though is only a symptom of a far bigger problem at the club, one that comes from the top. They left the previous manager in too long , doing massive harm to the club and in fairness to Archibald They brought in a replacement who had failed massively at his last 2 clubs They appear not to have interviewed anyone else but been blown away with his presentation (PowerPoint or not) Throughout all of this they keep harping on about promotion They announced the training complex would be ready by June and only when pressed by fans in January did they mention a problem but still pushing it will be ready in time (12 weeks from now) They have known for months now about ticketsite issues yet even for our next game fans can’t buy tickets on line. They place spin on all communications They have potentially left us exposed massively over Coulibally, even signing a guy who currently couldn’t play nor had played in a year was farcical for a club our size with limited squad size They way things are going relegation could kill us as a club, yet the board don’t seem to get this, but it’s not their investment, their not died in the wool fans, they’ll move on to the next gig. Unfortunately we can’t Nailed it. I would add that the financial momentum of recent years has potentially been squandered by maintaining a premier league off Pitch infrastructure and staff costs for a team bottom of the championship.

The next 3 to 6 months are potentially the most critical in our clubs history since Save The Jags Colin and Christine weir own 5% each. Factual correction. Not in any way disagreeing with the substance of your point though. For the record, I just cannot believe this was Colin weirs vision of the supporters trust when he agreed to inject cash and write off the debt. I don’t even think it is so important whether the board own shares or not You are correct regarding SMEs and how unusual that would be but we are a football club, and I think that offers the opportunity for a board to consist of the ultimate stakeholders - whether they have shares or not - the fans The thing with this board is we never saw them before they were board appointed and I doubt we will see them around firhill if they were no longer on the board - if there still is a firhill at the end of their shambolic tenure Edited March 2, 2019 by jaf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to receive a reply. The Trust was set up at the behest of the bank when the 'debt free' deal was done. The quote from David Beattie, in this article, makes that clear. “We haven’t ironed out all the details, but the supporter’s trust being formed was one of the aspects that the bank were eager for us to set up and we’re happy to do that." It is a sham. The Board have no intention of giving the fans any say in the running of the club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eljaggo Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 I wonder what the Bank's motive was in asking for fans' involvement? Could it be an attempt to reduce the risk of future mismanagement by widening the experience of the Board? Why would the bank even raise the topic since they were no longer creditors the Club being debt free? In the article you quote BB, Beattie stresses about how communication is the key. Bollocks. Better decision making is the key, and the fans know all about that. He also talks about a "fan ownership model" as though there were only the two polar cases of either no fan involvement and complete fan control: An evasive response that ignores the option of some fan involvement at board level. I'm afraid you're right BB, there is no intention of giving the fans a seat on the board. It would be interesting to hear an opinion from someone versed in company law on the rights of the fans trusts (with over 26% of the shareholding) in influencing or vetoing major decisions made by the Board.

I never understood what 'debt free' really meant. Not helped by this from Beattie in the same article “What it means is we don’t have a mortgage anymore. How great is that? We have no debt, and we owe no money to any other banks." So, we owe money to one bank. And, presumably, this is not debt any more(?). As part of the restructuring of this deficit they insisted on a Fans Trust. All the stuff about communication is, as you succinctly describe it, bollocks.

We must be in the top 4 budgets and if we finished bottom, we would be unable to finish above a part time team. Like you I will still follow Thistle no matter what league we are in, but not everybody will. I just hope the board , manager and players realise just what a blow to our club another relegation would be. The must realise AJ, I'm just not convinced they care enough. Look, no one player goes onto a pitch and thinks, today I have decided I will be sh1t. There is no one single reason to explain why we are where we are. It's almost a perfect storm. The chair ignores her football adviser and appoints what we seem to agree is doing a great impression of being a dud. But it didn't start there. We can go back to the 6 nil v Aberdeen result and probably even before that. I think history will show that although AA did a very good job after McNamara left, it started to go slightly awry when he began making his own signings. McCall started the process and McNamara improved it. (The detectives amongst you will note this is the first time I've not used "ratnamara")......would we have been better off keeping AA, I don't think so but would we have been in this mess if McCall or McNamara had stayed, I don't think we would. AA was great, he did us a right good job but his signings were his downfall. I can't produce any stats but I'd doubt McCall or McNamara would have as many dud signings as AA. Cakdwells don't look as bad but then again they could be the players who take us down again. Some, myself included, would take McCall back. Personally I think McNamara improved what McCall did, I'd swallow my pride and consider him coming back.....There I've said it. Tastes really bad though!!

allyo Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Before last Saturday there had hardly been a negative word said about Jaqui Low for about a month. Criticise her if you like, but at least be consistent about it. Yes, she picked the manager five months ago, but she doesn't pick the team from week to week, and her performance should not be judged from week to week on that basis. This is just frustrated people lashing out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my bored meandering thoughts on a gameless saturday. Apologies for the selective quote. In my view this point is worthy of further debate - and yes it's with the wonderful benefit of hindsight. But how many howlers did McCall sign? (Akins - and look where he is now). McNamara? - (Elliott - and look where he is now). In retrospect, Archibald's signings were a lucky bag. Hit and miss throughout most of our top division period, and utterly miss after the 17-18 fixture list was announced and some diddy on here decided that it was a disgrace that we had to meet the hardest teams in the first five weeks. So we got that lot out of the road and promptly got dubbed 0-2 by bottom of the league Kilmarnock. And we still have Miles Storey. Signed by Archibald.

I'm not defending them. I'm only noting that nobody was talking about it when we were winning. People were talking up protests at the Stranraer game because we were losing a lot and Erskine had left and everyone got angry. Then we won a few games and it was all rosy. Nobody said a word. My point is that our club is either being badly mismanaged from the top or it isn't. But if you truly believe it is, then wins over East Fife and Alloa shouldn't distract from that. The individual wins are down to the team and the people managing the team. As are the defeats. The board of directors is an entirely different question.
