Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 4 hours ago, Hearts Daft said: Robinson knows the Scottish game and has a proven track record of bringing through young talent. He also has Motherwell punching well above their weight. Levein had us punching above our weight only 12 months ago. Robinson is a flash in the pan. It’s utter bullshit that we appear to be interested in him let alone a group of fans seeming to be happy about it - whatever people think about Levein, Robinson has done and shown nothing to prove that he is a better manager than Levein. We have the chance and money to pull a quality manager out the bag here why would we go for Robinson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckydug Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 17 hours ago, Tom Hardy’s Dug said: People probably underestimate how much we would probably be prepared to invest in a decent manager. As Budge said we had a cracking year financially last year - we are in our best financial position ever. We have the means by which to splash out a bit and my feeling is Ann places a huge amount of value on spending money to get quality Yet one of our 'expert' weegie journalists says in the Daily Record today that we only kept Craig Levein around because we haven't got the cash to pay him off. Ironic on the day his favourite team posts an 11 million loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does say almost though, it's like that 99% out of a hundred on transfers... What do Motherwell managers get asked to do? At the start of the season is it avoid relegation or is it qualify for Europe. We’d be stupid to thinking isn’t the former. With us it will be the latter. Completely different expectations and demands. Why would we employ someone not used to such demands? Robinson has never been in that position and my guess is he’d have about a 4 game honeymoon period before fans start giving him grief as he isn’t a “name”.

nyron59 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Spoiler Daniel Stendel sounds like a really interesting candidate. If you dive deep into the Barnsley Fans Forum, it is clear that they were desperately disappointed that he was sacked. His style of football is built on “aggressive, attacking, high pressing game”. He took Barnsley to promotion. Seems that there are real mitigants for the weaker performance in the Championship, this season, not least the American Owners did not back him! So these results should not be viewed in isolation. Apparently, has brought back real excitement to Barnsley; he’s passionate and it’s easy to find clips of goal celebrations (akin to Klopp). Has done a lot of great work in the community and made a great link with the fan base. The German arrived in England with little command of English. If you listens to interviews, he certainly has a decent grasp now. For me, that’s some of the key criteria that I’d certainly like to see at the club. Amidst a list of uninspiring names being bandied about as potential manager, we could do a lot worse than consider Daniel Stendel as a serious candidate.

Musemic Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 I'd rather see us go for a European coach for example than the names that the bookies have made up. An example might be Christopher Pelissier, head coach of Amiens, who has a remarkable record. No idea if he'd consider us but Amiens are a smaller team than we are and he may view us as a step up.
