loveofthegame Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 A bit meh about it - great job at Brentford last few years but very new to the management game and no proven long term track record. No guarantees he'll get it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paolo Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hope he makes an absolute PLG of it.I don't, as I think he wold have been a good manager for them. If the players nkw, respond in the same way, then I might go along with it, though. His fatal mistake, was trying to change the players' lifestyle, including Barry Ferguson's. That pissed off the pllayers, who would not buy into it. Guess which side the press took. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly with the scale of the clear out there, Warburton won't face the same level of resistance from the Monster Munch massive, if he has the audacity to introduce proper fitness work.

Maybe he's to be their Craig Levein going forward? Restructure the set up and join boardroom to football dept? Does he not have experience of the boardroom? It all feels a bit like looking at our model and trying to recreate it on a larger scale to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Nah - he moved out of that specifically to go into management Am I right in thinking though, Rangers have virtually no scouting network anymore? Wee Stevie etc? It's also hard to deny they have stalled slightly in terms of producing their own players from Murray Park, not completely, but for a club their size, until recently they've had a few barren years producing their own. You might be right though, I just think his experience in those circles will have played a part in his appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romulus Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I think its a good appointment for Rangers, sure he can use his knowledge of English football to get a couple of decent players over. Will be a very close run battle for the title between Hibs/Rangers but hopefully St.Mirren can make it interesting too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToadKiller Dog Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 One guy us missing from the succsesful 3 at Brentford the DoF Frank Mcparland who was a former chief scout at Liverpool he has gone to Burnley . Was his role also important in the bit of success at Brentford . Brentford could also be seen as a bit unique because of the owner being different from the norm . Interesting appointment for the Orcs , but they really should go up next season who ever is the boss , more so if they are over investing .

A permanent thread entitled SPFL Lower Divisions, just like the BBC. On that subject, our stories on the BBC are still appearing under that heading. Disgraceful.

Captain Canada Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Looks a good appointment on paper but he's got a huge job on his hands to assemble a whole new team and get them to gel in time for the new season. McCall has every right to feel aggrieved though. He turned an awful team into an average one and couldn't bring in any of his own players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo66 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 If he replicates his record at Brentford, Sevco can look forward to finishing next season on 63 points. This season they managed 67. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disgruntledfan Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Im a bit meh about it to be honest, I just cant help thinking why no other championship club or even a premier league club took a punt on him, if he is that highly regarded. In the last month there have been numerous clubs looking for a manager. Unless, he was actually unofficially off the market as he had already been tapped up by Sevco. Good luck to him because he is going to need it, I just hope he fails miserably on this part of his managerial journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Looks a good appointment on paper but he's got a huge job on his hands to assemble a whole new team and get them to gel in time for the new season. McCall has every right to feel aggrieved though. He turned an awful team into an average one and couldn't bring in any of his own players. They won seven out of 17 games under McCall, drew at home to Livingston and Alloa and were pumped rotten by Motherwell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
