Cathro didn’t have them and even a guy with the temper Levein had only really mouthed off about Stewart when there was a load of shit flying around about the club from other people 32 minutes ago, Icon of Symmetry said: Austin appears to be his own man. He is also savvy enough to only make statements that he can back up with facts. Unfortunately, I fear he isn't going be given a chance because too many can't see past Levein. Would be a shame if we lose out on a good manager because of such a stupid reason. The ‘too many that can’t see past Levein’ are not making the decision to appoint.

Mr Sifter Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Has Preston’s WIFI been cut off or something? He’s usually all over Twitter and Facebook, but not a peep since Austin’s press conference. Maybe he’s just lost his phone...🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve not seen it and I’m chuffed he is firing shots but surely we have had a number of bold statements in the past, even public presentations, that are usually never translated onto the pitch. As a club we talk a great game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SectionDJambo Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 This was different from the Levein comments to the press, which were usually just designed to wind up his critics. Austin MacPhee gave a measured and factual response to claims made by an ill informed pundit, who tried to state them as fact. He has shown up the goons, who tried to belittle him, as being blowhards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swanny17 Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) Really good press conference and I have to say I have a lot of time for Austin. I’d much rather he be given the first team managers role than folk like McCall etc and I genuinely believe he has the respect of the club and the players. Really wish him and the team the best of luck today, it would be excellent to see McPhee continue on a positive note.

Bauld Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I think Austin really knows what he is doing. He is a very intelligent man. I imagine his relationship with the players is very good as long as you don't **** about. Anyone not pulling their weight in training or on the pitch you get the feeling he will let them know.

hearts00 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Think they want to put it to bed after the apology and move on. Probably don’t want to humiliate Alan Preston any further. To be honest if it was Michael Stewart they would have because he is bright enough and of the disposition to handle it. Preston...well!

LarrysRightFoot Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Thought he spoke well to Jonathan Sutherland there. Said he is trying to implement the style of football the board and supporters want - so even if he doesn’t get the job it’ll be easier for the new manager to take up the reigns. He seems a real student of the game, he thinks before he speaks - no wonder he has rubbed up some of the Sportsound crew the wrong way.

Preston spoke shite the other week, and even if McPhee lost every game for the foreseeable, the fact would remain. Win lose or draw games, Austin was still perfectly entitled to defend himself.
