Buffalo Bill Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Maybe not for us though. Maybe not, but that's the chance you take. I don't expect him to get the job this time but he might get it after the next guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bistokid Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 After the Celtic defeat I hadn't considered Daly for the job but now most of the team are giving it their best shot. Prior to the last two games our away performances have been abysmal in the Premiership since we got promoted. Alex Ferguson and Walter Smith were not great tacticians but they were both motivators and in my opinion Daly is presently motivating the players. Whilst we have undoubtedly looked more solid in the last two games, neither performance were particularly good. Incredible how little Daly has to do to get some people to a stage where they would accept a fairly novice U20s coach as our new Head Coach given what we have just been through.

I think it demonstrates just how poor and lacking in fight we were under Cathro. A couple of half decent results, with the players looking like they are trying and we are creaming our pants.

If it is Dougie Freedman then I believe the entire support can unite behind him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendricks Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 The club can genuinely **** right off if they appoint Daly. Agreed. Would be a disgraceful decision and prove once and for all they don't give a Tom Kite about what direction we are going on the park. Would also indicate there is a serious shortfall of cash right now. I can't believe they would be so stupid though as he won't see out the season and it will be the end for Levein.

rudi must stay Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 There wasn't a lot in it. I guess Daly would be seen as a leap of faith, but there's something about him that I like. One for the future though. Not sure he is. He's done a sensible job with what we have, but we never looked like scoring yesterday and some of our play was atrocious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done a sensible job with what we have, but we never looked like scoring yesterday and some of our play was atrocious I'm not sure that having players who can't control a football and pass to a team mate is Daly's fault but I agree he's done a sensible job with the couple of weeks he's had. I'm very much hoping for a Freedman appointment though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo Chiefo Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Quite possibly.The idea of bringing coaches through might not be dead in the water. The problem with this Liverpool boot-room philosophy is, apart from anything, it's dated. It was a unique idea but it worked, primarily, because they were continuing a winning formula with minimal disruption. Liverpool had won 3 European Cups and many domestic trophies. Allowing a seamless transition of managers made sense. Applying the same system to young coaches, at a club that is not in the habit of winning trophies, overseen by the same DOF just doesn't make any sense..unless and until we become successful.

It's pretty easy to promote from within if you have umpteen world class players and numerous other top drawer players. A some what different story if you have, as will more often than not with a club like us a manager sacked, a team struggling and then promote a novice. Just will never work.

I think you generally post hysterical and ott posts however if Daly was appointed it would point to cash problems. In that list he is clearly the least qualified, as would possibly Pressley and to a lesser extent Hartley. Davies, cough, cough and Freedman have much better management C'V's and would show imo ambition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escobar PHM Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 D I don't know about you but the last 2 results have certainly lifted my spirits. Hopefully a good appointment this week will continue that trajectory. Surely has to be this week. From tomorrow there are 11 full days left in the window and we need 3-4 players IMO. It would be good if the new guy had a major input into those 3-4 as his job will depend on them being right IMO. We also need to resolve the Walker thing one way or another. He needs to sign for us, sign for Rangers, or be told he is being parked for a year. He shouldn't be anywhere near the club and certainly not playing in his current state of mind thats for sure. I think we'll get the announcement on Tuesday. I have no idea whom. I am hoping for Freedman from those names publicly available. Someone higher profile than him looks unlikely although we could be surprised. I wouldn't be surprised to see a bit of restructuring at the same time with some roles being 're-defined' and possibly a more traditional 'manager and assistant' coming in under Leveins hopefully largely administrative role.

Key word being realistically.. I would tend to agree with the sentiments of this, although for Pressley/Hartley/Daly (maybe Daly is purely out of respect) to make the "Best 5 Candidates" then it is disappointing. Swap Pressley/Hartley for Coyle/McClaren and it is of higher quality. Freedman & Davies are definitely of the quality I had hoped and would be happy with either, although I totally favour Freedman.

The Motherwell game will be a free hit for the new man but if he can get three points on the board then he'll head into the International Break with a sense of purpose of going in the right direction.
