I 'd heard from a rather good source that the club had been approached a couple of times in recent years for a significant share in the club, Les also confirmed in a newspaper interview a couple months ago that they had been approached. People obviously find our club model attractive, the problem is, despite our great youth policy, the club do so many things wrong when it comes to the PAYING support. Also, the coaches in paid positions, are also involved in the main team and have a salary already. Not to mention the club do regular fundraising for the youth projects.
We are in the shits right now, I think the players are better than what they are providing, so you have to then ask, WHO is to blame if the players aren't playing to their potential ?

The blame is down to one man. The Manager.

Now is the time for every Accies fan to get behind the team. Right now, I'm interested in us avoiding relegation rather than having petty arguments with fellow supporters. The players, manager and the BOD all need to up their game over the next 3 months with no excuses......

The problem is, for most of us, it has been a team we've supported for 20 plus years, through thick and thin. I've seen the bottom of the rung, the near liquidation, this to me though is one of the best squads we have had in a long time. I don't recall a time period where a manager for Hamilton Academicals has been told that as long as he brings throgh our youth projects, he will be allowed to stay in charge, regardless of form or style of play.
I will be there, week in week out, supporting. I will never chant Canning get to fuck, or team full of losers. I will however vent frustrations on how the club is run, as it's my right as a ticket paying fan to do so.

I would never try to tell anyone how they should support their team. You should do whatever you feel is appropriate - we all should....

As bad as Canning is, I could not bear that eejit being our manager. Hasn't said very nice things about us in the past either. Can't quite believe he's involved with Scotland. Actually I can because the folk running our game are even bigger eejits.
