Tennant's 6's Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Like other posters, that seems a bit harsh on Andy Kirk, who along with John Rankin, seems to be quite highly regarded. Want the rest of them gone though, Although I'm not too sure if MacPhee is more suited to the SD role or not.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jambonian Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) My tuppence ha'penny worth..... It's said that Stendel is allowed one of his own assistants for now. My thinking is that we can't afford all three right now so his second assistant will join up in the summer. Wage-wise we'll have to pay off all the others (i'd keep Andy Kirk though) and Stendel will need a budget for January. He'll also need to see the full squad first to determine who stays and who goes. The ones on the shortest contracts will likely get told to leave, less compensation than long contracts. It'll take about two years to right the wrongs of Levein and his failed side-kicks. Don't know the financial side but we might have to get rid of two players at a time. I'd go McLean and Wighton to start with, the two wages may get us a decent goalscorer. Then a bit later on, White, (Hickey's too young to be in every week and maybe Garruccio'll be back by then), and Clare, purely because he looks uninterested half the time....and on it goes, Mulraney and Damour etc.. Certain players worth keeping are Smith, Halkett, Naismith and only a few others. We'll probably see more of Cochrane and MacDonald from next season but others like Walker, Dikamona (and even Damour) might be worth keeping depending on what Stendel thinks and if he believes he can improve them. The goalkeeping situation is a nightmare, not one of three of them any better than the other. Be interesting to see when Souttar and Washington are back and the system he puts in place. Seat belts on folks, it's gonna be a rocky ride! Edited December 7, 2019 by jambonian Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kiwidoug Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 I've been having a think and two things have occurred to me. Firstly, it's only right that Stendel has coaches he's confident with. If he's not able to bring three with him, some of the incumbents will stay and he'll be assessing them. I suspect these guys just do what they're told and are not responsible for the mess we're in. Not MacPhee though. While he's currently behaving with great dignity, he has to go. Tarred with the levein brush. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
