| 2. Author: neils Date: Fri 7th Mar 2025. 21:03 Good luck to him, we got rid of him a bit late, but I feel no ill will towards him at all. I felt last season we had the worse injuries I can remember in football, if it wasn`t for that who knows what would have happened last season, I can`t imagine how stressful that was as a manager. This season he was thrown under a bus before the season started, one goalie just for starters! And to be honest he and we never recovered, his recruitment was pretty poor as well, but again under different circumstances he would have been fine. By the time he got sacked he was done, and our squad simply was not at this level, many outside people have commented on this, he can take some blame, but not much in my opinion. As I say, good luck to him, and yes there were highs too. Reply |

| 5. Author: Par Dan Date: Fri 7th Mar 2025. 21:24 McPake wasn’t a bad manager. It’s all about resources. Last night Barry “struggled at Alloa” Ferguson went to Turkey and bossed Jose Mourinho . A GOAT manager. Jose thought Rangers would set up 4231. Chucked out a 352 . And could have battered them 5-1 . Reply |

| 7. Author: neils Date: Fri 7th Mar 2025. 22:23 Yes, he wasn`t a bad manager, and I hope he gets another full time gig. He was on course to keep Dundee in the SPL, and it was ridiculous he got sacked there We were right to sack him, but he absolutely shouldn`t be the one to shoulder all the blame for this-we could only sign what was left, every signing had huge injury risks, no other clubs were in for them, and a goalkeeper that had hardly played a single adult game before coming to us at 30! So a real gamble for any signings, and yes, he was done for us, but he deserves another decent crack at it. Reply |

| 12. Author: Par Dan Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 01:01 Kane is the best striker in the league . Reply |
| 13. Author: Jock Par36 Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 06:27 Kane is one of the best in the league, but not the best. Agyeman and Oakley are much better. Reply |
| 14. Author: shellypar Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 07:15 Jock Par36, Sat 8 Mar 06:27 Oakley maybe but agyeman???? Cmon min COYP Reply |
| 15. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 07:17 Agyeman better than Kane…..surely your on the wind up. Reply |
| 16. Author: Andrew283 Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 08:23 He also gave 2/3yr deals to multiple duds, played some of the most stinking football I`ve ever witnessed etc. Down there with Yogi, Grant and Kenny for me Reply |
| 17. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 08:45 A manager that cant adapt and alter his approach when losing consistently is not a good manager Reply |
| 18. Author: wee eck Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 10:47 He did what was asked of him in his first and second seasons. In season 3 the rug was pulled from underneath his feet. He was a pragmatic manager. If we`d played flamboyant football but failed to get out of League 1 or stay in the Championship he would probably have been sacked earlier than he was. Reply |
