I wouldn’t understate the involvement of our American directors in this. Cormack has managed to grift £1m+ out of each of them with promises of high returns from player sales and European competition revenues and has squandered probably in the region of half a million sacking his chosen management team after 11 months and paying compensation to St Mirren for their replacements, we’ve issued an annual financial report showing significant operating loss and now he’s back again after another 11 months looking for a further significant sum to fire Goodwin & co. I highly suspect they’ve told him to bolt and make do with what we have as the league position is still salvageable. They won’t give 2 shiny fucks about a one-off game against Darvel, it makes little difference from a return on investment point of view. Having worked with lots of blue sky thinkers like Cormack, his statement reads like he’s just been given a complete arse kicking in the board meeting and he’s making a futile attempt to look like he’s in charge.
It's because I can't stop thinking about poor Ole Gunnar Solksjaer, locked away in Kristiansund, reading that statement from Cormack tonight and realising he needs to unpack his bags.l because there'll be no phone call.
The real winner on Saturday will be the team that loses, sacks their manager, and gets a new one in, while the "winner" merely kicks the can down the road.
