Goalie Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Man, some of you guys and your agendas... What a surprise tho, a topic about Tom Higgins being fired has people wanting him to replace MOS.. Ridiculous.. The circus has moved on to Montreal, why do some of you try so hard to bring it back here? Uh we are 3-5 when did it leave? IT never has or NEVER WILL... BOD members come and go, Presidents come and go, GM's come and go, coaches come and go, players come and go but the CIRCUS will never EVER fully leave because people like yourself WON'T LET IT. Case in point, in a topic that has nothing to do with the bombers or anything of that sort... Fire MOS, bring in Higgins... ALL THIS CRAP really... it's a joke. A huge joke. Fans like you are part of the problem really. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustamente Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 What did Higgins do to deserve that? Oh yeah, the Als beat BC in Vancouver for the first time since 2001 last night. Popp wanted to be the HC. Remember he almost quit on Wettenhall 2 years ago when he hired Higgins as he was actively searching for an NFL gig. Popp has become a joke. Popp's lucky that he had trestman and ac for all those years. Now lets see what he can do as a head coach again i don't think it will be any better than the first go around. As for Higgins look what he was working with not a lot of talent and a few key injuries makes the move look bush league Blue-urns and Al Bundy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnzo Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Three straight years of chaos in Montreal. 2103: Dan Hawkins and AC publicly spar, Hawkins fired after five games, Popp takes over. 2014: Worman / Dinwiddie / Garcia / who's the OC? 2015: Michael Sam / John Bowman / Higgins / Popp Very glad to see they're still pulling 20K+ fans because man they are starting to look like a clown show.

voodoochylde Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 You folks pining away for Higgins DO remember that the organization felt so enamoured by his start last year that they were compelled to trot out (the shell of) Don Matthews in an inspirational / consultative capacity right? There are reasons he's unemployed. Him not being hired by Popp is least among them. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Blue Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 I find it funny that some fans can in one breath insult our organization, then claim that the solution is to rapidly fire our head coach and instantly hire a guy who just got canned. Good organizations don't do that. The circus is in Montreal and it can stay there. comedygeek, Blue-urns, blitzmore and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Popp saying this is Wettenall's decision and the decision to fire Higgins was made prior to last nights game in BC. Popp feels the Als are a 6-2 team and not a 3-5 team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow but Popp never wanted Higgins in the first place so really this does make sense.Good thing we have a stable 3-5 team here though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 I don't think Higgins does anything for us, plus I'm sure he will collect his cheque and sign with the Green next season. Poor firing IMO, Montreal is not a 6-2 team.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Wow. Higgins got screwed again. Not sure if he is the answer here, particularly in mid-season, but unless O`Shea shows real progress, Higgins ought to be a consideration in the off-season.

Poor firing IMO, Montreal is not a 6-2 team.... Let's hope. More likely scenario is that he spends the next decade whining in the CFL media about how he doesn't get consideration for any open head coach or GM job, and then he can retire from groveling. gbill2004, blitzmore and Blueandgold 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-F-F-C Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Wow...the Als are a gong show and the Stamps are the worst organization in the league. It's nice to be out of the spotlight for once. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty Liver Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 I find it hard to believe Higgins had anything to do with the Michael Sam sideshow. Sam should have been released outright the first time he walked away, mental problems or not. Allowing him to come back for another episode made no sense especially since it now looks to be at least partially responsible for causing a rift in the organization.

SPuDS Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Higgins for HC... after he gets canned? Man some of you are daft! Higgins is GARBAGE. Was before he went to mtl.. Was why we PASSED on him originally... Christ, you'd think we were 0-7 or something.. Bigblue204 and B-F-F-C 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelownabomberfan Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Just to clarify, I didn't say I wanted Higgins as head coach. I said to get him on a plane to Winnipeg. I hear the Forks is a great place to hang out this time of year. Seriously though, could a young HC like MOS use an old warhorse like Higgins in a consulting capacity? Shrugs..

Logan007 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 I'm not saying to bring Higgins here, but how was he "garbage"? This year and 2007 were his only 2 losing seasons out of 9 along with a Grey Cup ring. I wouldn't call that garbage. Some of you are off your rocker. He went 9-9 last year and he didn't even really have a starting QB until mid-season. Al Bundy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no we don't need any experienced coaches here in any capacity, we are only 3-5 and we got still have our awesome OC and Special teams coaches it's all good.

SPuDS Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Higgins only wins when he is handed a team to manage.. If he has to actually faces adversity he isn't very good IMO. Never been a fan of his.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
