Rudy T Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 I’d clear the place out tomorrow and give the Rangers game to Naysmith and Locke. So there’s absolutely none of the current set up in the building when the new man starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudi must stay Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 11 minutes ago, Smith's right boot said: I quite like that we aren't going for a jack Ross, Robinson, ex player straight away. Given the history of these tyoe of appointments we'll have a good season every other before sacking them. That seems like a great situation atm, but I do respect the fact that we are possibly trying to over reach so that the team can ultimately break that cycle and emerge as a constant dominant force. I like the long term thinking and our bravery in looking further afield, even if it didn't work with Cathro. However, football fans are fickle and we do need results now. We could appoint Robbo on Monday or even Likley Robinson if we wanted to. We'd likely be appointing a new manager in 2 seasons again. I do like the ambition we are showing but results are needed now and to get that we surely need the mgt team in place. We need to balance the long term ambitions of the club with the reality that is now and the need to get stability, results and some consistency. Imo appointing someone before the game after rangers is more than enough time. I wouldn't be rushing about to appoint a Robinson before rangers for a number of reasons. Long as we are actually after other candidates. Like another poster, I think Ann Budge is allowing MacPhee the time he needs to justify himself which I believe would be a dreadful decision. You let him off with the semi final (I think) no time and I don't think we were getting a result v Rangers at Hampden, but to justify a lacklustre and pathetic performance like yesterday is terrible management. Hopefully I'm wrong and she appoints a manager tomorrow, that's what we all need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had hoped that Macphee might just get to grips with what was needed, however yesterday has convinced me that the player don’t see him as the man to take the club forward as head coach. I hope that the “committee” pull their collective fingers out and get a credible Head Coach appointed ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There really is an urgency to get this done now. Waiting until after the Rangers game means the new man simply has one week less to get in and start making changes.
