Homme Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Steve McClaren is unemployed. But he's not a waster. I would imagine the poster would not be too happy about an ex England manager at our club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Dan Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Of course he has had some serious ups and downs throughout his managerial career How many managers coaches haven't? There in lies the problems most clubs have searching for a manager/coach. I'll need to stop now the wine is taking affect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I'll be stunned if this is true. If it is, he's the number one choice so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Better equipped than our DoF, McClaren has probably never heard of Levein. Yes, I'm sure a former England manager who has worked in three different European countries has never heard of the Scotland manager from five years ago.

Strachsuit Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 McLaren would be an outstanding appointment.

Voice of reason Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 If he is the 'incredible' manager some people are saying then why has he been sacked fairly quickly from his last two jobs at Derby and Newcastle? Some people seem blinded by his name rather than taking into account his recent managerial record. He would be a risky appointment given recent failures and his lack of knowledge of the league. More suited to a Director of Football type appointment than a head coach in my opinion. His interest, if true, shows that Hearts are still well regarded in British football circles though.

Locky Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Would be unbelievable. One that we simply would be mad to not take a shot on.

Yes, I'm sure a former England manager who has worked in three different European countries has never heard of the Scotland manager from five years ago. The signing of Phil Stamp was brought about directly by the relationship of McClaren (Middlesborough manager at the time) and Levein, due to them having both been on some FIFA coaching course together before.

Anyway this will give them a good laugh in Lochend and that's good because they haven't had that much to laugh about for 60 years. Plenty to laugh at though.
