Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

Granted that mine is accounted for and my blind faith made me renew in the first place, but as most season ticket holders do I take extra family that pay on the day, and I buy merchandise and refreshment etc.

We're all getting a little picky and missing the point somewhat, that our coach is garbage and we clearly need to replace him.

My point was more one of principle, and instead of whingeing about Macnamara and hiding behind anonimity on here I was prepared to state my name, address, and actually had the kahunas to write to the chairman requesting action.

Nuff said!

Are we?

I think that the majority of people on here now want rid of him. In fact, I can only assume that all the "Macca Backers" are not posting anymore due to all the negativity as they are very quiet indeed this week.

hmm and kudos to you but you need a few more than 1, I'm not having a go at the effort you've made as you point out, it's more than me or a lot of people on here have done.

The proof and hunger to follow your lead will I guess come after Sundays game.

.. and there we have it though. Another game.

Tell me this (and I am asking this for an honest response), if we beat 'ull next week, does that suddenly mean that he is the man for the job again? Because, lets be honest, there are now TOO MANY detractors for the coach and I doubt they will all be convinced by one win.

It might buy him a bit of time but I cannot see much more than that.

No i don't think it does but there must be signs of improvement which have been missing for a long time now.

One game lost or one doesn't make or break a coach but your either on the way up or down, we've been going down now for a long time and it'll be interesting to see if there's signs of life in the team come Sunday.

If we win I'll be happy but I think SM and the team have a bit more to do than one game to regain the majority of confidence. I've been to the games and seen the performances, I don't hold SM's view that we showed some great things so far this season and if anything it was a signpost to what happened Saturday.

Hi everybody, why you all wanted to give him more time is beyond me, so do the right thing and follow the instructions at the top of this thread.....

Thankyou, here's looking forward to our new coach even if we have to wait until next year for him.

It's very apparent from reading your posts that your clearly not a "Bull Backer", maybe a change of avatar to match your opinions should be in order? :wink:

Well said mate.

I'm not one for bashing coaches and have always been behind Rovers coaches (with the exception of Mal Reily in 2004) but from an outsider looking in, giving the likes of Platt & Godwin 3 year deals is the sign of a coach who is not getting the balance right of his recruitment and that is a recipe for decline.
