Topic: Match thread v Airdrie
81. Author: parsmad68 Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 18:39 Rusty Shackleford, Sat 16 Nov 18:36 My completely speculative and uninformed guess is that he`s taken some poison from behind him in the main stand for the Kane sub, probably partly directed at McCann and then not long after, McCann scores and in the heat of the moment he reacts. Probably targeted at one or two individuals. It may well be , but still disrespectful. Reply

Still not a good look is it we struggled to beat the worst team in the league at home and he`s cupping his ears when we scored probably our only clear chance of the game. c'mon the pars Reply
83. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 18:40 PARrot, Sat 16 Nov 18:02 Even if he did cup his ears, you have no idea why. Fanny brigade full on. I have no idea why he did it, if he did. He should maybe have shown more humility though given that he is only in a job because we are both not well off and owners are looking to sell up. Reply

Would make for a refreshing change instead of the usual soft questions[/quote Surprisingly COWS never asked him why he cupped his ears... Seriously, are you all really so offended by this. He`s already up for execution, and it`s pure speculation. Seriously I couldn’t give a sh&t Reply

No it`s not a good look but neither is being a grown adult and dishing out dogs abuse to your own team. Whatever though. Personally it`s about ten thousand down the list of things to worry about.

87. Author: DA_NO1 Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 18:50 Important 3 points and the fans moaning because the manager gave them a cupped ear - dry yer eyes and enjoy the win. Guessing some would prefer the Airdire manager in charge … "a picture paints a thousand words" Reply
88. Author: wee eck Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 19:03 Did anyone else hear the post-match interview with the Pars` fan on Radio Scotland? During it Allan Preston, who is an agent of course, confirmed that McPake missed out on a few of his prime targets in the transfer window because of the length of process required to approve a signing. McPake said in his post-match interview that his substitution of Kane was precautionary based on how he had reacted to the protocols in training since his concussion two weeks ago. By the way, the post-match interview on COWS isn`t a club one, it`s with media representatives so I imagine they can ask what they like. I don`t think anyone mentioned him `cupping his ear`. Reply
89. Author: parsfan97 Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 19:03 Can mcpake face the fans when he usually makes an **** of it most weeks ? Usually slinks away most weeks when we get beat Post Edited (Sat 16 Nov 19:09) Reply
90. Author: Paralex Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 19:06 Probably cheesed off with some fans in the Norrie booing at half time. Doubt if real supporters would do that. Supporters are meant to support, it`s in the name. Reply
91. Author: Athletico Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 19:08 A rocket was clearly put up McCanns @rse at half time, he had a much better 2nd half, and his finish was outstanding. 1st half was woeful, very few got passmarks beyond the back line. All over the place, baffling decision making, folk making runs to the wrong places, not making runs when they should be, sh*te passing (when the ball was actually on the ground). Thankfully a good talking to sorted most of that out, but it was still a huff and puff to get the 3 points, when we really should be comfortable at home. Our goal between now and January is just keep up with the 2 or 3 ahead of us and hope our potential new owners fire in enough cash to get quality in. Post Edited (Sat 16 Nov 19:10) Reply
92. Author: Indiapar Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 19:13 Of the recent games I have seen, I think the performances have improved. The results have been improving as well with that. Games we would have normally lost we have drawn, with wins where we may have drawn. Missing out on transfer targets is part of the game and I firmly believe the squad we have is capable of challenging near the top. We are where we are so it`s about looking ahead not back. The right approach today would have been to clap Kane off and clap Dapo on. We need to lift morale and get behind every player who pulls the jersey on in my view. Everyone wants success for the club there is no lack of effort. The fans can make the difference at home. The support has been very quiet over the last few weeks that negates alot of the advantage you msy have. Post Edited (Sat 16 Nov 19:19) Reply
93. Author: StevenPar77 Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 19:13 McPake was getting it tight when he took Kane off. However, I guess he knows more about the Kane situation with fitness, etc, than those of us in the NW. I have heard a lot of the abuse that gets aimed at him and Cook, amongst others, so, in perspective, I have no issue with an ear cupping. Reply

Surely not? An utter embarrassment if true. He did. Utter tool! Guy is lucky to even still be in a job. Most other clubs would have paid him off long ago. Good i hope he did, u clearly are an utter tool u absolute fanny craddock COYP Reply
95. Author: Socks Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 19:17 Any chance we could try to avoid being needlessly aggressive and unpleasant towards each other for a bit? I know the football has been grim recently which makes this stuff more likely but I`m finding it really offputting. Especially when it`s after a win. Anyway, dreadful game but a great result. Not really much in the game but the breaks went more in our favour today while recently, last week in particular, they`ve tended to go against us. After getting a lead we weren`t really in much danger. Not sure on the big penalty shout shortly after the goal, looked like it could have been given but I didn`t have a great angle. After that big scare we got through it OK, though the `slow it down` stuff wasn`t especially effective. Escpecialy the one where we had a free kick in a decent position, played it short and passed it straight out of the park for a shy. Benedictus and Comrie both had good games at the back, McCann was much better in the second half than the first. Happy with any win just now, and we could do with winning a few more tight games in the weeks to come. Post Edited (Sat 16 Nov 19:21) Reply

He`s already up for execution, and it`s pure speculation. Not speculation I`ve seen it for myself but whatever floats your boat. But you have no idea why. Are you really going to ask him? After the abuse he and McCann have had on here, surely you can take a cupped ear. If not, maybe they can get a supply of dummies in the club shop. Are you for real, a manager gets some stick on a fans forum so is therefore allowed to cup his ears to fans that pay his wages , the football his teams plays for 3 years is murder , with 10 minutes to go we waste time and hang on to a 1-0 win against the worst team in the league, you sir are easily impressed. I`m not impressed, but I don`t need to be to call out whiney folk. Reply

98. Author: Swifty Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 19:46 A win and 3 points I would have taken that at 15:00. The first half was not our best, a few passes when we should have had a shot at goal. Airdrie created a few chances and a reasonable penalty shout? Second half we were much better and a good strike by McCann. Got to concede I was miscalling him for a poor start to the game. But he obviously has lots to offer, strength, skill energy and a huge work ethic. Not sure what his best position is? Benedictus is a tremendous leader and deservedly got Player of the Match. Another tough game next week, but there is not an easy game in this league. Reply
99. Author: CrossPar Date: Sat 16th Nov 2024. 20:00 3 points achieved but that was torture to watch once again. Just listened to Mcpake`s post match comments. 2 points he made, one that McCann scored a brilliant goal. Looked to me like he schlaffed it into the net but I will give him the benefit of the doubt until I watch it again. His second point was that Matty Todd was the best player on the park by miles. I have no idea what he thinks he is watching. Todd was poor today along with many others and should have been subbed off. That win is just papering over the cracks. Playing at home to a poor, bottom of the table Airdrie and trying to hang on rather than go for a second goal was a dangerous strategy. Reply

We’ve had to endure months of awful football/results and he’s got the cheek to turn to the fans and cup his ears. The same fans who are still turning up to endure this garbage and support the team. If these investors get on board I hope the first thing they do is give him the boot because it’s been a long time coming.
