Silvery_Moon Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Great result and well done John. He never managed a win v Hibs in the 5 derbies he managed us against them (including losing our unbeaten run in 2015) so good to see him win this one.

The picture folk laugh at of him (I think from when we played ICT or County) where he’s wearing the training gear and suit annoys me. It’s just blatant disrespect to someone who laid the foundation blocks of the best group of youngsters the club has produced in years - Paterson, Walker, Nicholson, Holt, King, McGowan etc. He also gave us that memorable result at Annfield with a team which had zero money to spend and had lost multiple senior players. He’s a proper football man that has contributed so much to Scottish football. Maybe hasn’t had a glamorous career, but deserves a lot better than some of the stick he’s faced.

Francis Albert Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Glad to see McGlynn doing well. Took some silly abuse on here because he wore track suit over his suit when inspecting a muddy pich in the rain and for the dark glasses. The latter possibly to do with an eyesight problem common enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 I think he'd be a great coach for our academy. Very proven track record and heaps of experience working with youth. Much of the Paterson/Walker generation were all brought into the first team under McGlynn. Obviously appreciate he's doing his own thing at the moment, but if the opportunity ever arose, I'd be very on board with bringing him back in that capacity.

After he got the tin tack from us he went on a ‘football journey’ spent time with some big clubs and managers and studied them. He also met with Pep and came back into management and tried to implement what he’d learnt from these guys (mostly Pep I think) His teams do play decent football and Falkirk will do ok with him in charge.

He was a scout at Celtic, and I recall reading about how big an influence Brendan Rogers was on his change in style. It's working, very successful in the lower leagues. Unfairly criticised no doubt because he doesn't have that wow factor, the tie and trainers pic comes to mind. Nothing to do with his ability to coach a player. Had us leading at Anfield. Good guy.

BigAlim Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I like John McGlynn, he’s a good coach who gave us years of service and has a good eye for young players. His season as manager was one of the most deflating periods I’ve had watching Hearts (along with 07-08 and 19-20), I’m not sure how much of that was really his fault in hindsight. The Anfield goal is the best celebration I’ve ever been a part of so at least I’ve always have that. Going from the 5-1 straight into losing Paulo, Rudi, Suso, Black and Beattie and then selling Templeton and McGowan pretty quickly was dire, Grainger and Zal were injured most of the time as well so we were basically playing with the previous seasons reserves. That season really felt like the descent for me, started with the high of Anfield and finished with genuine fear that we might implode. At the time I was quite angry with John, but now that the dust has settled all I can about the guy is no hard feelings and thank you for your efforts.

Weakened Offender Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Very pleased for JM. Deserves all the praise.

Paris 84 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Can you imagine the current incumbent narrowly going out by a single goal over two legs, versus anyone half decent, never mind an English Premier League club?
