You know when you make an offhand post and then spend the rest of the thread trying to defend criticism of it that you totally agree with? I'm there Yes, right now we couldn't afford him. 100% don't dispute that and was never trying to argue otherwise!! Everyone who has mentioned that is entirely right! If he was sacked, which in England is likely -the average tenure is about 18 months, then we should go for him. £25k might be the most he ever earns, the project (once he's sacked) might interest him and with him having worked with Savage and McAvoy before, there is a wee reunion with guys he no doubt holds in high esteem (again, once hes sacked!!). That might not be tomorrow, but within the next couple of years, he'd definitely be a manager I'd be keeping an eye on. Footballs a weird industry that way. Paulo was earning stupid money at Sporting, then he was managing us not getting paid at all!! fair enough. Half of this board claimed he wasn’t good enough last time around lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GorgieFifeLife Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Naismith will get it until end of season. If he does well the job will be his. Up and coming European managers are looking for bigger jobs than us. If it’s a foreign manager they will be an unknown. It could be another manager from the Scottish Merry-go-round. I think Naismith will get it in the end but I wonder if Steve Clarke might be interested in the job while also doing the Scotland job. I’m thinking out loud on that one, someone will say not thinking at all! I think he would do well with us but not obviously a long shot.

As in, who is hiring the new manager? Before it was of course Budge but she has handed over control to FoH so who has the say now and how does it look? I would imagine it would consist of Budge, McKinley and Savage with final approval coming from the wider board. I.e those 3 interview the candidates and feed back to the board their thoughts with a collective final decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costanza Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Paul Lambert started well enough in his managerial career but it's not been great latterly and his style of football is generally regarded as boring. Also, I dunno why this has stuck with me but I was always irritated that when he left Dortmund he didn't bother to write the sign in German and the position of that apostrophe.

Famous 1874 Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 The likes of Robinson, Lambert & O’Neil are not upgrades on Neilson. No chance will we be looking at them. Instead I’d want us to be speaking to the likes of: 1. Chris Wilder (currently at Watford until the end of the season but is expected to leave. Been seen at Hearts games and was previously linked to Aberdeen) 2. Kjetil Knutsen (Bodo/Glimt) 3. Marti Cifuentes (Hammarby IF) 4. Kieran McKenna (Ipswich) plus a few others Unsure how realistic a lot of these names are. I’d rather we’d be told no than go for some uninspiring appointment such as a Robinson.
