If the players are not playing for him what difference does it make when he goes. Probably the sooner the better in terms of season ticket sales and allowing his replacement to sign the players he wants rather than inherit them from CL.

Made up figure by you, but they took a risk and are moving up the table. Whether it's worth it? They'll need to wait til end of the season I suppose.

Mollo Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) From someone who's always been keen to back CL (not always though) and a fan of avoiding knee jerk sackings.. CL was the man who bough Vanacek, checked his condition in Spain, chose to play him, changed his mind and humiliated the guy in his second game and for what? What good is it supposed to have done? The bloke has likely gone further back than forward. He never plays the same team twice. Players like Cochrane were staples last term and nowhere this one We've signed players in the summer that never stood a chance of getting in the team, and haven't Versus Partick he plays one sub from 3 when fresh legs would maybe have helped us - instead we tired players like Berra out even more by squeezing another fixture in Vs Dundee, Partick, Partick again and Hamilton - we have, by all accounts, been utterly honking I really appreciate what he has done at times - and I'm torn two ways - but what have we got to lose by rolling the dice and taking a gamble? We face ICT in the cup - they are better than Partick - and then if we make it - we will get, most likely, savaged by Celtic in the final. Getting there and getting beat by a goal won't turn my season around. That's it - our best chance this term comes down to that perhaps. So do we stick or twist? I don't see more risk either way really. But the answer cannot be to continually find reasons to stick. If you always do what you've always done - you'll always get what you're getting!

Pasquale for King Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 5 hours ago, Boab said: The strange thing is, the next three games are high profile games that need no motivation. Quickly followed by a Semi-Final. Games that really should take care of themselves in terms of atmosphere etc. Probably a good thing ! How we do in those games ? Two victories, a draw and a defeat and CL goes nowhere. Only problem is Partick away, Celtic at Murrayfield, Rangers at home were high profile games and we we were extremely poor in them. He can’t morivate them in games against most of the bottom 6, only one of whom haven’t beat us this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of that him being the Director of Football makes him fireproof because Ann Budge has relied on him from day one and she’d find it impossible to sack him and his Bootroom even though the vast majority of fans know this job is too big for him. I’d urge CL to swallow his pride, do the right thing, resign with immediate effect and maybe just as important take no part in the selection of a new management team. Mitch, you have won a watch!

Even if he did agree to keep out of first team activities, team selection etc the first time something goes wrong he would be accused of meddling even if it was not the case. So if he goes he should be relieved of all footballing duties. We would also stand a better chance of getting in a better Coach who would not fear any interference from Levein if he was still DOF. Despite the many good things he has done during his tenure at the club there are still a lot of people involved in football who don't like him and would never work alongside him.

kingantti1874 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I’ve defended Craig a lot, there’s no doubt there are some on this board want levein out regardless of how well he does, and they’ve undermined their position by being critical even when we were playing well.. also the reaction on here to results when we lost so many players through injury was ridiculous. However, Injuries ate not a factor anymore, and there is no doubt we are nowhere near the level we set at the start of the season, all confidence is gone and the fact that Craig doesn’t seem to know how to change it is extremely worrying. Massive improvements required in the remaining fixtures otherwise it’s game overview at the end of the season for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His payoff would be in the accounts somewhere, maybe not listed as Osh payoff but as i had to explain to you all money paid out has to be accounted for doesn’t it? The proof crowds dropped by 2k in Leveins last spell, somehow that proves season ticket sales didn’t drop? We have barely troubled a gk for months but it’s not Leveins fault and he’s making progress? Wow. 1. You gave a specific figure for his salary, payoff, agent fees etc. 2. When challenged to provide a source you said the accounts. 3. Another poster linked to the published accounts and those clearly do not provide itemised figures. 4. You then backtracked and said you read it somewhere on a forum. Yeah, cause some random has access to strictly confidential information and leaked it somewhere no one else remembers... Next was your assertion that attendances plummeted during Levein's first spell. You provided eventually average attendances which failed to support your claim. Attendances naturally drop the second year after a cup win and we were in financial trouble then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch41 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Neil McCann and Steven Naismith as Co-Managers with Sandy Clark as assistant Manager. Is a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudy T Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 The current set up will undoubtedly remain in place until Ann Budge is no longer the owner, possibly not in its current form but the same personnel will be there just in different roles. Ann wants her cash and those she has around her she trusts, I’m afraid that’s the price of her saving the club. Keep paying your FoH subs and change will happen eventually and fortunately and thanks to Ann the club will be in a good place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of that him being the Director of Football makes him fireproof because Ann Budge has relied on him from day one and she’d find it impossible to sack him and his Bootroom even though the vast majority of fans know this job is too big for him. I’d urge CL to swallow his pride, do the right thing, resign with immediate effect and maybe just as important take no part in the selection of a new management team. Why would she find it impossible to sack him and his staff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilmuir Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 CL must be aware that current form is unacceptable. The comparisons with the Cathro era are realistic - we look that bad at times. Sadly, we seem to have once again signed players not up to the job. There are exceptions such as Uche and Haring but even they are starting to look a bit lost. I’m a big supporter of CL but have serious doubts if he is taking us in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@VladMagic Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 The good news after nearly a month and 61 pages of drivel later is we fortunately have people in charge of the club who know what they are doing. No end of protracted, negative, sustained pish from the same people day after day will change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
