You're The Manager

You've lost the dressing room, you can't buy a win, fans are turning their back on the club, you've no money to spend, etc, etc...........

 

What would you do to turn it all around?

I wouldn't, I'd quit before I got sacked.

I'd start nicking stationery. 

 

You don't want to have to buy stuff like biros for the house when you can lift one or two from work.

 

VIctimless crime?  Discuss.

Call the A-TEAM

I'd nick the toaster...

swap players from second team and any youth squad and tell them this is your chance , do the bizz or face the same fate the other fuckers face  >:(

I would start kicking boots and knock over the half time tea tray

Strip the captaincy from Kerr and give it to Diamond or Langfield.

Drop Kerr and McDonald for a couple of games.

Pick a formation (4-4-2) and stick with it.

Fine players for poor performances.

Phone Jimmy Calderwood for advice.

Man up and stop greeting.

i'd sit in a corner rocking back and forward crying whilst asking the voices in my head to stop talking to me

Threaten to bum them into last week. 

 

That way they know how they got there, they know what's coming next week, and they'd be stuck in a never-ending loop of being-bummed-dom.

That may well be the situation a certain Mr McGhee finds himself in.

:thumbsup:

 

Agreed.

 

I'd also like to add in:

 

- Stop talking to the EE

- Smash down the boardroom door and demand investment, and if that doesn't work, have an Aston Martin Sale in the club car park, that gotta raise at least a few £10,000's for some new players.

You're surely on the wind up?  ???

If I were the manager I....

 

....wouldnt come out with the utter shite that McGhee has today on RedWeb.

Which was your favourite bit of shite?

  • "us dominating the match"
  • "I can't criticise the effort"
  • "We'll look at the way Hamilton play, explain to the players the way to play against them and show them it on the training ground"

That line is particularly worrying  >:D

It was comment after the match, "I thought we deserved to win it".

Eh? With hardly a fucking shot at goal?

Seek therapy.

Why is that shite?

It's not. Seems something any sensible manager would do - ie. prepare, especially since Hamilton play 3 at the back, and occasionally 6 in midfield. However, one of the numerous sticks that JC was beaten with was that he too frequently set his team out to combat the opposing one, rather than set out his own team and let them play football. Always seemed far too simplistic to me. If it was as easy as setting your players in a 4-4-2 and sending them out with the instructions 'do good passing boys n score lots of goals', we would all be football managers. Then again, simplicity is right up the JMG street.  ;)

 

 

It is the effort comments that are particularly idiotic.

 

The (lack of) effort has been the worst aspect of the performances against Raith, Falkirk and Hearts.

I liked all of it. It's all top class keech. Obviously his therapist is doing a great job.
