I'm looking at a 4 man dream to run the whole show: George Easton as Chief Executive, John Lambie as Director of Football, Big Wull as Manager and Davie McParland as First Team Coach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a number 2, there are many posters on here who are full of sh*t. As discussed earlier, my dog Wee Dug must be a prime candidate for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a game at Firhill with Wharton as the Referee. A Thistle player in possession passed the ball under pressure from an opponent who had a "fly" kick at the Thistle player after the ball had been passed. Although play had moved on Wharton had let his eye linger for a moment on the two players and saw the little kick. He dropped back and without stopping the game said something to the opponent. End of incident and the opponent played a very clean game thereafter. It emerged later that Wharton had said to the opponent "Mr (surname) I saw that. Do anything like that again and you will be off. Do you understsand? The player replied Yes Mr Wharton! Those were the days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the player would probably reply with something like "F*** off, ya fat "f***in' dobber," and his manager would defend him by saying the referee singled him out unfairly for unduly harsh treatment, while ignoring much worse from players in the other team.

gianlucatoni Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 Had a good chuckle yesterday when I read about Danny Lennon's pre match team talk ... he said to the Clyde players "you lot believed in Santa Claus for 8 to 10 years, so go and believe in yourselves for 90 minutes" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wull Posted April 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2021 Tonights team talk. "Get a couple of early goals, our confidence is high so keep pressing up the park. Word will get to cove and falkirk and their bottles will crash. We will be top of the league tonight, I 100% trust you all...now go out and do it" then send them out to go top of the league.

Big Wull Posted April 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 As my teamtalk predicted, we went top of the league! And falkirk and cove's bottles crashed.

CotterJag Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 We have a Manager, Assistant Manager, Goalkeeping coach and a stats / training coach. It's hardly overkill is it. My friend manages a youth team in Germany and has more staff than that. Then again, the Germans treat every playing level as they would the top. Maybe that's why they're so good.

Big Wull Posted April 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Tomorrow's team talk. "We are top of the league and in a good run of form, DONT END that now! They will expect us to start slowly, as we have been, but from the 1st whistle get right in their faces, hassle and tackle them. Get our passing crisp and acurate, get early goal and deflate their confidence. Cove n falkirk will draw and we can open up a 4point lead, I have every confidence in you lot. Now go get us 3pts" with that Id send them out for a victory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
