    No way this * a Tim. Think he’d be dying to write the wrongs of 09 when we got pipped to the title by the mutants in Strachans last year , that still lingers with us all years later. Not this * though. We get pipped to the title this year hope he’s forced to quit.

    Any criticism that comes his way and he will point to the trophy haul we have achieved under his watch, i know it's very frustrating but results on the park dictate everything, from players and manager to the Board.


    I'm certainly not defending the guy, but now isn't the time to press the panic button, not whilst we're sittin top of the league with 1 trophy already in the bag.


    It's a risky strategy that may well cost us, but then again we could go on and secure 9IAR or even a QT , the coming weeks and months will provide the answers.

    Aye I get that completely as we're in a majorly successful era but everyone knew we needed strengthening and are really short in certain area's..

    If we do the 9 from here then it won't be because of him for me Prof..

    He's effectively gambling on it from here on in. Something we shouldn't need to be doing in our position..

    Nothing has changed really, we got treated to a good summer transfer window and expected the same again in January. I think we only really need another centre back or winger in to ease the injury issues.

    Also the issue is not PL, he does exactly what DD wants and runs it as a profitable business machine for Dermot and for Pete's big bonus. Let's be honest no matter who the Chief Exec is nothing will change until Dermot decides to sell up. The board have been warned by the fans, if they * up 10IAR then the blood is on their hands and changes will be made.

    100% but he doesn't give a *, he just wants a move down South to make his money back.

    Pumped by a poor huns team in our own stadium before the window.
    We have the finances to blow them out the water but he has chosen to go with the usual policy of a couple of mediocre, unheard of signings. Positions that clearly needed improvement completely ignored.
    Simply not good enough.

    I think most windows I've gave him some leverage, 2018/2019 summer window i put it mostly down to the rat, even last January i came out happy enough when it was poor too. There was no excuse for not properly strengthening the squad this window, especially after that game against the huns. We all knew we needed another CB even if we didn't start going 3 at the back. Sure we might sign some out of contract dud for 6 months but it's pathetic, no surprise if we're scrambling about in the summer looking for Eddy's replacement too.

    He apparently supports us but at the end of the day he's a business man who just wants more cash, we're an investment to him that is all. He could sell up just now for a very tidy profit but he knows if we join the English league or if there's a European super league then he can sell for even bigger money.

    Wont get much better after either though since the 2nd biggest shareholder is Nick Train an investment manager but is worth more than Dermot.

    The reality is if you don't like Lawwell as CEO then you probably wouldn't like whoever would come into replace him. Their job is to run at a profit, negotiate good sponsorship deals and keep the share price high.

    This guy is an albatross around the clubs neck.

    He’s said before that Fletchers name would be written on his tombstone, yet he’s happy to continually let us down and this time could be far worse.

    The guy doesn’t give a *, there is absolutely no way he is a proper fan of the club. It’s not like another centre half and winger would even make much of a dent in his bank balance.

    Smug, arrogant, *.

    While winning trophies should be important its not what they will be hired to do sadly
