clark963 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 *I'd also have no problem giving Austin a few games to see if he has what it takes. The way he was spoken about on Sportsound has really riled me and would love for him to stick it right up Willie Miller and co. I think he could be a good manager but fear he'd be lambasted from the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me, McCall bleeds blue as well, I know him through a friend and he's into EVERYTHING Rangers (if you get my drift), and you do have a point about Doddy being untried when we appointed him, but he turned out to be miles better than McCall has mate, it's not even close for me and he would be a shocker of an appointment, we need someone with no Old Firm or Hearts links, someone who doesn't fear those scumbags and gets torn right into them at every opportunity.

I agree with you btw, Doddy is a legend and kept the game simple. Brilliant man manager and motivator. Was just pointing out the OF links, as he was a s big a Ger as you could get and don't think we should dismiss someone just because of that!

I just think if we get someone who has a Scottish football mentality, then every time we play the Old Firm, we'll lie down and go all defensive against them, I'd rather get turned over 3-0 and have a right go at them, than get turned over 3-0 in the manner like we did in the semi final, it gets a bit depressing.

No one worth their salt applies in football, only people forgotten, and usually for good reason Now now you obviously are willing to accept people who are not good enough for Hearts.

amadjambo Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I don’t want McCall as manager, but I’m not averse to us hiring someone with an OF background. They tend to have exactly the kind of winning mentality that we need. Question is, who out there can be the next Macdonald/Jardine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No current ex-Hun would be anything like that Can't agree 100% He was professional and got us at the time, no doubt. However, At a recent game at Tynecastle, Doddie's colours came shining through. Can't remember what he said exactly, but he was happy rangers were winning. Too happy to be our guest really. Given his age and Likley drink it wasn't really bad, but it irked me a little.

I trust Budge doesn’t want to further enrage the support so we can safely say this won’t be happening. McCall would not be a good appointment. Another **** old firm dud. Some of the names linked....jeezo, are we Hibs!? Looking for a cheapo option will not win the fans trust in her if a few of the candidates that's been linked ends up getting the gig. As for further enraging the support, she's doing a pretty good job of that already and as long as money keeps piling in from fans in various formats she won't really care that much. I'm a big fan of Ann, spoke with her a few times over the years even before she got financially involved with the club and as a season ticket holder but although she's done a good co-job getting the club back on it's feet, we are now stalling and have been since 2016. Patience is really wearing thin with her now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
