I bought season ticket as thought he would be here another season. Thinking of asking for money back now.

I think the recent promotion of Nick Daws will help continuity. In hindsight, maybe this was related to JBA's interest in the Toulouse job.

Fed up with constant rebuilding. We will never really evolve if we don't have managers on longer term deals. We will not get better chance of winning anything than we had this year. No guarantee we will get any where near as good coach. Kind of bored with it now.

I'm just fed up with constant rebuilds. Was thinking of getting season t

Gutted to see Jens go. He has left us with some great memories and brought the whole club and community back together. I dont ever remember a time when there was such a feelgood factor around Fir Park, short of the 91 Cup win. Im actually feeling quite optomistic for what lies ahead. Its all been tied up very quickly and efficiently and you would fancy the board are well on the way to identifying who comes next. Id expect the new manager to be in by the time the players come back on the 18th June, and Id anticipate that we will have done a fair bit of business transfer wise by then as well so we have the bulk of the squad in for pre-season and in advanc of the Conference League Qualifiers. As I said earlier. The King is dead. Long live The King! 🧡❤️🧡

Wish he’d stayed for the European campaign, not to be, hopefully the club have been well compensated and we can build.

Steady .....

At least make it plausible

I think it would be a lazy appointment which would be pinning hopes on him being able to continue what JBA has done, but without Jens. Perhaps I just have PTSD over Malpas replacing Butcher but the assistant being promoted to the main job just gives me the fear. As I said, the job is a lot more attractive now than it was a year ago. We have had a lot of plaudits as a team and as a club and have Europe next season (on paper at least). So we advertise it and see who is interested.

If you offered me a million quid and a house in the south of France, I'd support St Mirren for a season.

Even Elliott Watt said he'd been coached to play that way most of his career.

They will be raging he has not gone to Celtic.

Agreed. It'll be really interesting to see how he does at a club where (I assume) they already know how to play football.

That amount was quoted a couple of days ago. Before the Sun ran with it. I guess as with the players any employee has a price. If the £1m is accurate we have done just fine.

I'm not even sure if he is,, really. He just plays fitba' the way a lot of European teams play fitba', and that Scottish teams very much don't. Which hopefully bodes well for finding his replacement.

I don't want any new manager who speaks English as their first language. (I know - Cue the Yogi jokes, so don't waste your breath)

I'm not suggesting Rogers should get the job, but is there any specific reason why you think he shouldn't?

With the way the season went it its no suprise Jens is offski. Is it now time for Pep to show he aint just a cheque book manager and show he can coach at our level?

I wonder if there is a French Ian McCall predicting that Toulouise are now favourites to be pumped out the French First Division next season? Gutted tonight.

In fact, I see from the club statement, they have been doing exactly this: It’s no secret that we have got a strategy in place that we will continue to build upon our model, using the same principles, as we enter this new campaign. Managers leaving a club can be a hard pill to swallow, and whilst we appreciate Jens for what he has done here in the last 11 months, we have been continually working on contingencies and learnings to ensure we do not rip up and start again but continue to build and grow.

Most definitely not. But certainly our most exciting manager since Mark McGhee first time around and a much more likeable character than McGhee and Alexander who also got us European qualification. And a much better mindset and attitude than longer serving managers who also had success for us like Stuart McCall. He had us going into games against Celtic and Rangers believing we could beat them and lo and behold we record wins against both for the first time in over twenty years. Compare that to the meek, subservient pish we got against those sides under McCall’s management where you had key players like Stephen Craigan admitting that they were ‘scared’ to go to Ibrox etc. JBA changed our play and our mindset and that was brilliant to see.

The £1m is wages I think. I think the report is lost in translation. Yesterday the reports were saying Toulouse would pay £1mto land him, but that is surely salary. Otherwise we have won a watch.

Disappointed he's gone, but as I said previously, glad it's now and not early August. I have no doubt the Board has a succession plan in place and will be getting things rolling for Askou Phase Tou.

Being reported in the Sun as a million pounds but we will take that with a pinch of salt
