We’re one of the oldest teams in the league. He’s signed numerous players 30+. He’s the first manager to not play a home grown player in the starting X1 since fuck knows when. Aside from Ramsay, there’s none of our young players in the team. Apart from that… Link to comment

Apart from that… Haha was just about to write the same post! Glass has raised the average age of the team and ended a decades old proud record that there is no chance would have ended if he was giving youth a chance! i realise you already said that but I was just too stunned when I read the initial post Link to comment

What a fantastic brand of exciting attacking football we have on offer - clearly working. Glass is a shambles of a manager. Although you can't really blame him for taking the job from his mate. The blame lies at one door and one door only. Link to comment
slippers Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 We have a tremendous run in now with Edinburgh, St Mirren, St Johnstone, Ross County and Livi before playing Celtic. We need to build on last night and win the next 5 before we play Celtic. If we do that I will be starting to believe in GlassBall. Link to comment

Betty Swallicks Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Has a right go at the huns and got us to the play off round in Europe. Better than McInnes did in all but one season. 1 Link to comment

How many goals did we score in his final dozen games, or so? This may have been because he knew he was oot the door, or it could have been his confidence was just shot, or maybe a combination of things... but the McInnes who arrived and the McInnes who left were two very different McInnes'* *McInni ?

Them cunts are current champions, coming off a season unbeaten and we dominated them from start to finish the other night. We were cheated out 3 points for the second time this season against them. Not sure on Glass yet but theres been some proper good performances. Hearts at home, second half especially, we were the best ive seen us in years. 2 Link to comment

Dandyesque Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 The difference in mentality was obvious from the start. We set up to go toe to toe and we never let it slip. Seriously one of the most complete performances (without winning) I can remember against Them. Glass deserves some plaudits. Still needs to up our game against the lower teams though Link to comment
Betty Swallicks Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 The transfer policy has changed a fair bit for the better (no doubt some mongs would rather we signed Taylor for a third time, Leigh for a forth time and Lafferty types though). Link to comment

Haha, who says football fans are fickle I appreciate the positive vibes but lets not get too ahead of ourselves here Summer signings, Ramirez (30), Brown (36), Gallagher (30), JET (30), Watkins (30), Woods (30). Sign a 20 year old.... " the transfer policy has changed a fair bit for the better" 1 2 Link to comment
