Hornets boss Greg Perkins faces calls for his head, after he admitted his weekend hedonism at the Wicker Man Festival was probably responsible for his side's last two back-to-back defeats.
The Hornets were inexplicably attack-minded and named stunted squads while visiting superior opposition in defeat to Carthage (5-0) and Arsenal UK (2-0). Then when controversial pictures of Perkins appeared in the Scottish Scum tabloid, displaying the self-described "functioning alcoholic" in a variety of states of alertness and "elevated emotion", fans were outraged.
"Why wasn't he doing some homework on our opponents, taking training, or changing tactics?" slurred an outraged Dave Thomson (31), an unemployed father of seven who was one of 6,000 fans who had nothing better to do than spend the whole of Wednesday bellowing at any tabloid hacks who'd listen, while protesting outside the Yellow Brick Road.
Perkins, who was notably sheepish and only a little suicidal after the 3-day eclectic Dumfries music festival, announced "I sincerely regret that my un-professionalism and lack of preparation contributed to two defeats by better-organised and in-form opponents. However, the Utah Saints were flippin class, and i you get the chance, check out Drums of Death too."
It remains to be seen whether the Hornets support will forgive their manager after he made them aware of the Oban-born "Tropical Grime Techno" performer (30). Today's six-pointer against fellow strugglers Alsancak F.C will tell all.
