Dillinger Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 37 minutes ago, Thebigguy68 said: Surely we are not going to offer the job to Alex dyer. He’s a coach. A nice guy. Good to have around the place. The transition to manager ( like for mcculloch) is very, very challenging. There must be better options than this. You know, there was a time once when all Mourinho had on his CV was assistant manager. Not long before he won the UEFA cup and Champions League with Porto. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" League position usually a fair indication of results overall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"We made a mistake with the appointment", "The players didn't take to him" or "He wasn't successful enough after six months" wouldn't be what a candidate wanted to hear. Ian McColl actually spoke quite well on this on Sportsound a few weeks back. He said more often than not there is a vacancy because someone has been punted and you know all the reasons that can happen. More often than not, that means going into a situation where there are issues with players, board, staff or all three. Managers know fine well that managers and players have a relationship and that can break down. If you were, say, Gary Holt, I think you would have a fair idea of why that happened and the self belief that it wouldn't happen with you. If I'm honest I'm always slightly surprised by how attractive a proposition we seem to be to managers, but we are a stable Premiership club and that's a big draw. I don't think candidates much care what's gone on before unless there is something glaring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thebigguy68 Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 I like Darren fletcher as a pundit and have a feeling he will make a good manager one day. There can be no questioning that he operated at the very highest level either. It would be a big gamble for any club to take him on in the near future but (like with lampard and gerrard) someone will likely take a punt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killieboykfc Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 I’d be interested to know if we have any money to play with that we would be willing to spend on poaching a manager away from a side or if it will just be the unemployed market we are operating in. I would presume it’s the latter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That really boils my pish. I applauded the board for appointing Alessio, thinking outside the claustrophobic box diddies like us are supposed to remain in forever. I applauded Hearts for appointing Cathro, but breaking the suffocating mould of a backwater footballing nation was just too much to expect and the guy was f**ked from the start. God forgive me for saying this, but the denizens of Snake Mountain are the real pioneers here when it comes to backing an outside the box manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yogi would only work in my opinion if there was a true Director of Football dealing with all of the recuitment and he was willing to accept that without complaint. I agree he tends to get his teams playing attractive football, but it tends to be when it comes time to refresh/overturn a squad that he falls down, he doesn't seem to be a great judge of players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with those points definitely. As I remember, he left ICT because he wanted more cash for players. Got to cut your cloth; he struggled to accept that.

The argument you are making is exactly like a Celtic fan saying Steve Clarke wouldn’t have been good enough for them because he never won a trophy with Killie. Utter nonsense and not taking into account the respective resources of the clubs. What do you expect, Holt to have them sitting 3rd? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
