We have the players there to be competing at the top end of the league. Get this appointment right and who knows what will happen. This is the question ! Would a higher profile manager put even a thousand onto home games as it stands ? Circa £30K ? Speculate to accumulate, and all that jazz ?

One of the issues with paying a higher salary isn't necessarily around even being able to afford it. It's about the possibility that you then can't afford to sack someone on such a salary.

mc2607 Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 As much as I love Robbo, I don't think he's good enough and his appointment would be a big let-down considering AB has been telling us she wants an experienced and well known manager, and that it wasn't unrealistic to be linking us with managers on a similar level to Moyes, Keane etc. I'm expecting much better than any ex-Hearts-player-turned-manager if I'm being completely honest.

Tenaciousdandy Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Really hope it's not Roy Keane, guys not only a shit manager, he's an ersehole and bully. Personally I'd like a manager that has no connection to Scottish football, be that a foreigner or someone from down England with a point to prove who brings in his own backroom team and Clears out the current coaches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m done with the recycling of PHMs tbh. According to Budge we’re not skint so something more and different would be welcome. Dinnae get me wrong, as much as Robbo is the greatest man alive and my all time hero, I do hope the club will aim higher. But in a parallel universe Robbo replaces Levein then got punted unfairly (who knew gorgeous was going to come in and have us playing the best football I’ve seen in our life) Levein then gets punted, fairly and Robbo comes back and has us united and playing brilliant football? Even if he doesn’t then he’s experienced and thee legend. Gary Mckay even might get behind him, you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tynewater Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Pity if he does join them, think he would be a good choice for us. Ross has demonstrated that he can motivate teams, be successful and play attacking football. Nothing is guaranteed with any manager, but I'm confident he'd do better than the big-names being bandied about like Keane, Adkins etc... I think they'd come in, sign a few huddies from England, win their first game and lose the next ten, then quit stating that we don't match their ambitions.

Pretty sure Adkins and Keane have won promotion to the EPL. Ross couldn't get out of League One. Ross is nothing more than a champ man manager, signing a load of players he knows and hoping it all clicks. I'm hoping we appoint a manager and a sporting director who can scout properly and build a squad who can attack as a unit and work as a team. Not hoof it and hope for a flick on Adkins would pish all over Jack Ross IMO. I've always been jealous of these teams that have been assembled from nothing, like Eddie Howe has done, now Lee Johnson and now Alex Neil. Plenty more examples aswell.
