I have posted on many threads before last night showing my support for the Manager.
I truly believe we are heading in the right direction. However with basically no option for LM (I still believe John was signed to play there infront of Wallace) and a CM in Peña who is taking time to adjust to the sheer pace and Nature of the Scottish game.
Patience is the word guys. And just because of where we have been, does not mean that the Current Manager does not deserve some. He still has not got his own team together. It was never going to be possible in 1 transfer window.
Last sunday for example. Had we secured Jamie Murphy from Hearts, he takes the Windass' chances and the game WOULD have been very different.
HIBS at home - we started like a steam train that day. Should have been 2-0 up and then an awful decision snatched points away from us. Had that RED CARD not have happened, we would be just 3 points off top spot.
I have watched Rangers teams all my life have bad games and Draw at places just like Firhill and get knocked out of Cups by worse sides than Motherwell. Those Rangers teams were put together with much more Resources, over greater time but most importantly those Rangers teams still lead us to many titles.
Just look at the EPL in terms of challenging for Titles. Mourinho at Man Utd was basically given a season with no expectation to build his own side. Now they are challenging.
Pochettino at Spurs. He was one Board meeting away from the sack. Now he has taken Spurs to a whole new level.
Building a NEW, successful team takes time. More than one transfer Window. I think of how good the 07/08 season was under Walter Smith and how quickly he turned around our quality from Le Guen era however Smith had 2 transfer wimdows before that season started.
I am not comparing the managers or teams. The point is a new Team and eapecially one that is going to be successful takes time to put together and gel. Most of our starting line up just now have only been at the Club and in the Country less than 6 months!!!!
Get behind the Manager, the Club and see the bigger picture. This team will grow stronger with time.
