I'm thinking that there was perhaps a 6 month break clause in the contract. Perhaps BB decided after CQN that AA would be gone so didn't back him with players / funds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me anybody that can have them sitting comfortably away from the relegation zone two years in a row is doing a pretty good job, even if the football isn’t great to watch. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrestersKtid Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 If the players have downed tools then it's unforgivable, something big must've happened since the Hearts game. We were ruthless in that game, everything clicked. Doesn't make sense to chuck the guy after 2/3 poor results in a row. I wasn't overly enamoured with Allesio's appointment to begin with, mostly due to the language barrier. The nomads result has left a sour taste in most peoples mouths as it should but the guy visibly improved his english, was a likeable guy and I was desperate for him to do well. We had 8 clean sheets in the league so far. We are toothless atm in front of goal but how much is the lack of options down to him and how much down to the board?! All the best Angelo, we move on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bute-killiefan Posted December 17, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 Absolute shambles. he was appointed far too late in the summer. He was failed when it came to signings by a poor club secretary. Forced to plug gaps with players who were just not good enough. Still, despite that, went in a decent run that seen us 5th in December. honestly don’t know what the club expected of him. If the rumours of player unrest are true, f**k all of them. This is a guy who has coached at the highest level and won countless trophies, but a squad of players who were almost relegated 2 years ago don’t like him because he ‘dusny do enough running’. f**k the f**k off. this is angry as I’ve been since MJ 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killie89 Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 Really disappointed in what’s happened and feel like the board have major questions to answer. We were in our strongest position in years in the summer, with a real chance to kick on but have made a complete arse of it. Bitterly disappointed in this group of players - it feels like they never gave the guy a chance. Really thought they had more about them than that. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've a feeling we'll go through a few managers with this new benchmark. Are you trying to be funny? This is exactly the opposite of what I'm saying - I'm saying that you CAN'T objectively use a league position as an absolute measure of success. You CAN'T....it even says so in the bit you've quoted that you've supposed to have read?... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CYRILLRIP Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 Appointing a new manager is always a gamble. It's an even bigger gamble when the board members who conducted the process were not remotely qualified to do so. I hoped it would work out well given AA's credentials. However they were coaching credentials in the main. Even given the current form and trajectory I can't believe his sacking is to do with football reasons. I'm guessing the management side is missing from his character and that it's pretty shambolic behind the scenes in terms of organisation, communication and the actual management of a football club. Sadly his English would be holding him back in this regard as well. At least hopefully with the Fowler appointment things on the football side will be put into a better state and there is now someone on board who has the skills that will be useful in the process of appointing the next manager. Still a big no to any of the usual Scottish football suspects. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ktid1869 Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 I find the timing really strange, we're sitting 5th, we've a transfer window coming up which would really have been AA's first full one . The players he's brought in i.e Sow, Jackson have been almost emergency signings to fill a gap. I just don't think he's been given the backing he deserved! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his interview on killie tv he mentioned he spoke to people on the board when he came up to watch a game. It looks as if as soon as they knew he was available the job was his, and no one else was being seriously considered. A guy with absolutely no experience in the role. working with Alessio, it made some sense, but now? None -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
