    No. One game doesn't ring any alarm bells. Did alarm bells ring whenever we lost to Rangers, no. We got on with it, won, came back and beat them next time. It's football.

    Lol its not just 1 game though is it ? How bad do we have to look when we step out of Scotland before some of you wake the * up ? Sure we will win the spl again and maybe a cup or two but are you honestly saying that any other manager wouldn't do the same ?

    Aw I'm sorry, we're we not just talking about the Aberdeen game? Now you are talking about Europe too? Make your mind up.

    2 draws against what I would call good European teams, and an away loss against the team who has been surprising everyone and top of the group. No alarm bells for me. Aye it's * not to be winning all the time, but it doesn't warrant a sacking.

    Its October.

    The Premier League has brainwashed younger fans into believing it's right to sack a manager as soon as it's not working for them. It's pathetic.

    I guess 50 is pretty young !! A serious question what is it you've actually seen to make you think we are heading in the right direction ( European football not domestic ) ...If its just down to liking the guy I get it but that aint enough for me sorry

    Haven't once said we are heading in the right direction or that he is doing a good job, I've just said he shouldn't be sacked and hasn't done anything to deserve to be sacked. So away you go.

    If you are 50 then you have seen much harder times than this and you know fine well things work out. Whether that be reinforcements in January, or a change of management at the end of the season. Bad spells happen.

    Yeah ive seen worse teams than this but that doesn't mean we have to accept things and be happy about it !! Loyalty is great but when it comes at a cost then you make changes however tough it appears !!

    Fair comment. Although it should also be noted that both O'Neill's team and Strachan's team flopped more often than not away from home in Europe as well.

    Disappointing, for sure. No one should be happy. But there's a huge difference between being * off at a bad result and wanting to sack a manager that's been here for a season and a half, won the league, and won a cup. Look at Lennon's first two seasons in Europe. Utrecht? Sion? And six points in a Europa group (comparable to this year's)? I'm sure the same people calling for Ronny's head were saying Lennon should be fired in that season. Get some perspective.

    That's fine m8 but what are you seeing that makes you think things are actually improving or will improve ? All I see is a shambles every time we set foot in Europe !!

    Tonight? Hardly anything. For sure. It was a terrible performance. But other games, there are passages of play that are really good. I know it may sound stupid, but I thought that we looked really slick for the first few minutes tonight (basically, until the first goal). And there have been games where I see a lot of that. We obviously folded after the goal, and Ronny needs to figure out a way to sustain the good and minimize the bad. But for me, there's something there.

    I recall us looking dreadful in that Europa group under Lennon, maybe with the exception of the Rennes win. And that Rennes team was poor.

    Yeah its true we did look slick the first 5 mins , but that's my point theres nothing solid about us , we look all over the place when teams have a go !! We should be difficult to break down but we just look a shambles and never seem to learn so somethings not right .These are bang average teams that are making us look stupid , this team are 7th in their league miles behind !!
