Secure Par Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 Honestly what did the gaffer say that was out of order? Praised the team/certain players and he’s right Alloas pitch is brutal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why try and make it difficult for a volunteer interviewer? The lad was doing a job, I'm disappointed in him. Agreed, he sounds like he can't be bothered answering questions, and isn't polite enough to just fake it. At times he sounds openly hostile. He directly contradicts the line of questioning, even though it's inviting him to praise his players. And he's flat out wrong about Mehmet only making one good save - from the highlights there were at least 3. He then goes on to say that's DM's job, before seconds later going out of his way to praise Fisher, presumably for doing his own job. I can't believe that the interviewer felt compelled to apologise for one question, that should never be the case. Hopefully JM was just having a bad moment, we all get them, but this sort of attitude isn't what the Pars should be about IMO. Very disappointing. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secure Par Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Honestly we had a manager that did an interview that praised his team and won 3-0. Imo who cares what the other team thinks/interviewer come accross as? We won and let’s move onto the next game👏👏👏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also that he seemed to go out of his way to avoid praising one player, while lavishing praise on another. I'm glad of the win and I'm generally pretty pleased with McPake so far. But that doesn't mean handwaving it when he's acting like a pri*k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosythpar Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 Thought it was a weird one him saying Wighton gets a hard time from certain people at other clubs? I know Wighton has had his critics from our support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he has not had his way with signings and maybe caused a problem with the board but he’s doing his job to the best. James McPake is a competent manager for me so far. I like what's he doing and have liked what he's had to say. He is definitely passionate about the game and there was needle between the benches last Saturday. But he deliberately made that interview awkward. It wasn't what he said, it was the deliberate effort to make an arse of the guy. He should be better than that. Only my opinion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all genuinely looked happy for him. Chalmers is one of our best players. He's having a good season overall for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

da_no_1 Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 Still think there's something happened in the background with this guy or during the game that's made him react like he did. Normally he seems quite polite. Not losing any sleep about it though. 99% of journos are arseholes.......😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymie Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 (edited) Mehmet and Breen were signed by Grant and are now doing well Chalmers was signed by Hughes. Todd, Allan and McCann were given extensions by Hughes. Hughes and especially, Grant, were always polite during their interviews and understood the importance of ParsTV to the community. Grant went out of his way to personally phone members of ParsTV, physios and scouts, after he was sacked, to thank them for their help and support. Yes, it didn't work out on the pitch as we all would have liked, but let's have a balanced view. Edited October 11, 2022 by Raymie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA-go Par Adonis Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 McPark praised Fisher as he signed him. He praises Wighton because he's known him for years. You won't hear him give any credit to anyone other than his people, hence why Mehmet was "just doing his job". I've no idea if that's correct. But just thought I'd throw it out there so that it becomes perceived wisdom and then, further down the line, 100% fact... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
