One little snippet to show what a useless coach Macca clearly is: when we ran that penalty in front of the sticks - from which ultimately Worrincy scored - Macca clearly told the team to run it. Never gets anything right with his tactics, does he? ;)

What a fraud, surely must have been a fluke that the 'chump' got his side up for a game against a top side. What with his clueless coaching, naive tactics and him spending the game colouring with his crayons. Blah blah blah...

Whether McNamara is a 'top coach' is perhaps still up for debate, but some of the bile posted about him on here has been grossly unfair. Just hope the players can continue on now and string some decent 80 minute performances together.

Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

Awful attempt at a dig ignored, until he starts winning such games regularly, a fluke is very much what this will be viewed as. It was an excellent win, yes, but the guy is/was under pressure for a reason and he and the team have to build on this. We shall see where we go from here before the supplies of andrex run out in some parts of west yorkshire.

Or maybe it was the supplies of Kleenex running out in some parts of Scotland last night?

I know that last night was much improved on recent weeks but a few posters on here are getting a little carried away.

Dunno about the rest of you guys, but I'd rather get "a little carried away" delighted to be catching our lot doing things right, than "a little carried away" forever delighting in catching them doing things wrong?

But then again, that's maybe the fundamental and irreconcilable difference between positivity and negativity?

Sorry Adey it's my fault I didn't make my point clearly enough. The point I tried to make was that after the games that were disapointing result wise we were told not to rush to make judgements. But after a win that practice seems not to apply anymore.
