Scouser2 Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Alex Dyer is an interesting choice of assistant , if true - a similar age to Clarke and very experienced both as a player then later on going from a fitness conditioning coach up to stints as an Assistant Manager at likes of Charlton and Huddersfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man has sunk a decent amount of cash into Kilmarnock for various things, most importantly bankrolling us to keep us alive!! If he (they!) get this, then yes... Icing on the cake for the big man. You have to admit the hospitality suite does seem to be taking a long time and after MJ it's hard to imagine anybody putting money into the club that they won't get back.Good on Billy Bowie if that is the case. Most fans aren't Billy Bowie but over months,years,decades, we put money into the club that we will never get back, save for enjoyment and there has been precious little of that recently. A new era ? I really hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty about what a first class team The Biilly Bigots are and the Accies cold be in a lot of soapy buble. Not even a mention of the Tayttie Munchers. It's being reported they allegedly had £800K in an account & £750K has been cleaned out of it....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negotiations between the former West Brom and Reading manager's representatives and the Rugby Park club have been at an advanced stage. The Ayrshire side have conducted interviews with around a dozen candidates and see Clarke as the man to replace Lee McCulloch. Clarke, 54, has been out of work since leaving Aston Villa a year ago. His reported assistant, Alex Dyer, seems to have plenty of experience too, he was also West Ham's fitness guru before becoming the 1st team coach.... I can see those steps in the stands taking a hammering & a few aching muscles in the next couple of weeks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you did read his Wiki page you would know that he has coached at a much higher level than that. Even then, it's very disrespectful to the National League South, the sixth tier. -1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken T Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 If Clarke is at the game today let's really hope he's signed up first - once he's seen this lot in action could be a "don't call me I'll call you" job!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJout Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 I'm sure bowie has sold the fact that we have a potentially good support. After all once he had told Clarke that we had 200 fans signed up to the TIK initiative how could he refuse. If bowie pulls this off fans need to stand up and be counted and get behind this new management team. It won't be easy turning this round and it will take time.

BigYin Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Its been mentioned previously but now is the time for the fans to stand up and be counted. Bowie and co have done their bit by getting us one of the highest profile managers in our history. We now need to do our bit by turning up in numbers at RP, signing up to TIK and giving Clarke as much backing as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skygod Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Kilmarnock are closing in on a stunning deal to land former Chelsea assistant manager Steve Clarke as their new manager. The Ayrshire club were hoping to fly the former Scotland international to Glasgow to watch his new charges face Partick Thistle on Saturday. Kilmarnock’s academy director Paul McDonald will take the team at Firhill, but Saltcoats-born Clarke, who has been out of work since a caretaker spell in charge of Aston Villa last season, is poised to succeed Lee McCulloch as the club’s seventh permanent manager in as many years. The 54-year-old also had spells in charge of Reading and West Bromwich Albion and served as No 2 at Newcastle United, Chelsea, West Ham United and Liverpool. Concerned that Clarke could prove too expensive for them, Kilmarnock initially played down rumours of a move for the ex-St Mirren and Chelsea player. However, after a rigorous interview process involving talks with the likes of Mixu Paataleinen and Gary Holt, the club’s three-man board have pushed the boat out in a quest to fire the Rugby Park side off the bottom of the Premiership having failed to win a game so far this season.
