Don’t understand some of the ott reactions to this. His Rangers team also managed to lose a SPL playoff to Motherwell 6-1 on aggregate iirc. And that was more recent than his successful period at Motherwell. He’s been a car crash since then.

No sure where he heard that from. However if that's our aspirations we may as well get Robbie Nielsen back. and the laugh is we wouldn't be able to get him if Ann even wanted to. He's on the way up with United with an owner there splashing the cash. We're a far bigger club than United but I'm sure they'll not release him and he wouldn't come back anyway due to the phoodle pharty nonsense and the fact CL is still floating about with his notepad in the background Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirkierobroy Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 McCall sacked by two lower-league English teams in a row, one more than Jack Ross.

bistokid Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Would be an abysmal appointment, I can only hope the reporting is inaccurate. 2 recent sackings in League 1/2. He did a woeful job at Rangers. His last success, relatively speaking was over 10 years ago. He has neither the back catalogue or youth / innovation on his side leaving us with a wholly uninspiring appointment - to the extent that I'd even prefer McPhee to remain in post. I am sure I read a rumour that Budge met with Walter Smith for some counsel and this smacks of Walter pointing her in his direction. The biggest concern on this is Budge's complete lack of football knowledge and lack of forward thinking people advising her. If Donald Park and Walter Smith are the people you are leaning on then inevitably we will end up with the Largs mafia or someone of that ilk. This appointment really is defining for Budge in terms of her future tenure and how people will regard her footballing success at the helm. I don't have any faith at the moment that she'll pull it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF this is the path the club is taking, I'm extremely worried about our direction. Shelley Kerr's a better candidate than that clown Cotterill. How the hell did he get an interview.

The point I am making is that there is a dearth of football knowledge (it appears) in the people making the decision - this looks to be borne out with the likes of Mccall getting airtime. In terms of who I want, Stendel appeals to me. Someone of that ilk. As ever, Id expect the snr management at hearts to have an understanding of up and coming coaches here and abroad and be able to be proactive. Again, I don't see this playing out but I hope I am wrong. And, just because the average punter doesn't have the resources or time to research the managerial candidates available to us in detail, that does not negate us being able to critique the possibility of Stuart ****ing Mccall.

mscjambo Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Stuart McCall should not a look in purely because his recent record is utterly abysmal. Was awful at Scunthorpe and Bradford. Shouldn't even get anywhere near an interview. I was in Scunthorpe earlier this year and spoke to fans there his whole reign was utterly crap and uninspiring. Local legend at Bradford, was chased because he wasn't good enough. I'm a sorry but he shouldn't even be getting to interview. The same goes for Neil McCann the track record simply isn't good enough. McCall and his level is probably back to Motherwell when Robinson takes the Northern Ireland gig which I suspect will happen. Who knows he might do great things but I don't want him at Tynecastle. Nothing personal other than in what world are we employing a guy Bradford and Scunthorpe sacked? 🤷 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not enough evidence to say if he would be good one way or the other. Harley struggled at Dundee but has done very well at Alloa and Cove. McCann could come to Hearts and flourish. Likewise he could be a disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
