    From the comedy conference

    ER: "We can win first five games and I will say 'calm down'. We can lose first five and I will say 'calm down"
    and on the 6th loss will you be sacking them Mr Rahic?

    I think you'll find that last time the "circus came to town", Billy Bremner was the clown (and Tommy Wright was just the bag of shite)

    people saying they have put money on us to be relegated kind of shows the mentality of a small group at the moment.

    This is seriously stopping me doing any work today. I'm off, people want mortgages.

    Ah, I get it now, finding the most important individual at the club has all been a very efficient cost saving exercise.

    A big gamble but best of luck to Collins et al. You never know he might turn out to be an excellent coach. Now we need some seriously good L1 players otherwise the sht could really hit the fan.

    I think it's more than "a small group"
    You could get 10/1 this morning and William hill have slashed it to 15/2 in the last couple of hours.

    Why? Fans bet against the club every week, so either way they feel they're in a win-win situation. That's a million miles from wanting us to lose. Or get relegated.

    They're just reacting to the market. We get a good signing and the odds will change back.

    "so why shouldn't we take several weeks to give us a good feeling that we've made a right decision" - You didn't take several weeks Edin it took 2 days to appoint someone.. we just had several weeks of people turning your crackpot ideas down

    Decided to keep season tickets affordable at £149
    Decided to bring back a club legend in McCall as manager - (good decision at the time)
    Decided to create a development squad for our long term future
    Decided to sell James Hanson and bring in Charlie Wyke
    Decided to bring in an experienced L1 manager in Grayson - (good decision at the time and no complaints)
    Decided to keep season tickets affordable at £169
    Decided to fix the pitch after years of abuse and disregard

    He has obviously made a few f**k ups but the above cannot be ignored.
