Glass Sacked

[1903Fitba]

Wasn’t to be - no hard feelings. 
 

 

Onwards and upwards hopefully.

How are the pies at the Balmoral Stadium?

Miles cheaper and they take cash as they want to grow their support not chase away kids and grandads.

Russell and Apolloo gone too

Glass' biggest mistake 

When Sheerin left he had the space to bring in an experienced coach to balance his other choices and he went and chose Apaloo. Terrible decision and a forewarning right from the start.

Without out doubt Glass was really fucked Cormacks project and no doubt he will be blamed whilst Colgate and the glorified tea boy and hotel booker are exonerated

This will absolutely be the spin 

 

But we should never forget the truth. 

 

Cormack should still be firmly in our sights.

Simmie and Robson caretakers by the looks of it.

[WesthillWanderersFC]

I feel sorry for him to an extent.

I don’t dislike him, he just wasn’t up to it.

He was offered a job he’d never refuse. 
He took it. 

The fact he wasn’t up to it should be of no surprise to anyone as he had no CV to back it up. 

The fault lies with Dave Cormack for the appointment & the lies about a process

if he is part - no problem if he remembers the coach part of player coach

[DelMonte]

Relieved but this isn’t a good look for Cormack. 
 

Glass was hung out to dry.

I'd rather he remembered the player part for a while.

Love Simmie. Club legend…. But he’s no coach or manager. 

Robson & Brown caretakers ?

Until a “process” takes place (no laughing)

Cormack trying to save face before the Fergie visit when he could have done this ages ago if he really wanted to salvage any goodwill from the support. 

He can fuck off as well. 

Every club has appointed managers that have been disastrous at least Cormack has now acted. He fucked up and by sacking Glass he has obviously realised that so let's see if he can get the next appointment right before we say he can fuck off too. Cormack has been far from perfect but he delivered in a couple of years (a proper training facility) what Milne failed to do in 20+ years. Let's not write him off yet.

Interim manager who is currently out of work till the end of season 

wont be anyone at a club currently as it needs to be fast

Away min. 

He's been caught lying on numerous occasions.  The only thing Dave Cormack cares about is Dave Cormack. 

Can see through him from a mile away

I don't think now is the time for rubbing noses in it.

I was one of those people, and let's be honest - the way things have gone and the radio interview given by Cormack was a clear indication of WHY people like myself were like that. It's not a point scoring exercise here, I genuinely didn't think Cormack had the balls to sack him after backing him and everything that has gone with Cormack (being his mate etc).

I feel for Glass but thank fuck that pain is over. I hope more due diligence is done and more time is taken over the next appointment and it isn't someone from Atlanta.

The experiment failed, the pain is over.

Now let's go get Europe.

People were saying it like it was fact. Fair enough however.

[Torry Tosser]

Good luck to him....Think he was dealt a bad hand by Cormack(or wis Cormacks mind made up already,hence the no real activity in Jan Window)

[RED_JOHN]

I take no pleasure in seeing us having to sack Stephen Glass. He wasn’t ready to be the Dons manager and was gifted the job through friendship. We need someone with a bit something about them to take the reigns now. Someone who will genuinely excite the fans with bringing in a decent team with a decent attacking style. Cormack and Gunn have a second attempt to put this right. This could well be their last effort if it doesn’t go right.

[BonnieDon]

Feel sorry for Glass. No bitterness towards him.

Hopefully we get it right this time.

Survive relegation this season and kick on in the summer.

Jack Ross the most obvious in that category.

I refuse to even consider Lennon as a possibility.

[Crossbow]

Shame for Glass. He thought he could make it work but really should have gone a while back. Season a right off other than

firstly getting safe 

and secondly if possible Europe 

big task. Hope they have someone decent in mind

I was also one of those who thought he'd get the year. 

I'm not saying I don't think he shouldn't have been sacked - clearly the results merited a sacking.  However, I still don't see what Cormack was trying to do... if you appoint a rookie, surely you commit to giving them time regardless?  I don't personally think we were in any danger of getting relegated this season... quite a few will probably disagree with me there though.

Survive relegation. Win our game in hand and we’re a point off fourth. We ain’t bottom and almost cut a drift so stop the relegation talk.

Milne talked bollocks and lied for 20+ years. Let's see if Cormack can get the next appointment right. If Milne was still at the helm there would be no training facility as I said Cormack has been far from perfect but he's delivered some good things including putting a lot of his own personal money in. I'm willing to give him the chance to see if he can learn from his mistakes. If he doesn't learn then fair enough.

[Bamber]

I wasnt thinking on anyone in particular but Would be daft for a working manager in scotland to leave his club now before the split unless he is unaffected by the split so forget that

robson/brown too inexperienced robson has half a season in charge of the reserves

so it has to be someone out of work for 1/2 a season

so ross/lennon/tommy wright

ross in till june is my guess

Nope - just didn't have the ability to be a manager. Was backed heavily in the summer, brought in his own team and made an arse of it.

 

Good riddance.
