I was thinking more along the lines of letting him choose any player to sell and keeping 100% of the profit for himself. If he does leave, I hope it's Toulouse, as it would be nice trip to go and watch his new team play.

1. Punt Rangers to League 2 in the EFL 2. Punt Celtic to the lowest division in the League of Ireland 3. Profit!

And if Max goes with Jens?

Just give them the minimum allowed, with them being seated in a newly created seating area with limited views outside the stadium and all at a premium price.

Take out the bottom ten rows or something, cover them in they advertising banners you see elsewhere

I would think that the board will do everything they can to keep him here. If that doesn't work out then they will get as much as they can for loosing him. Can't say fairer than that.

That's who I think will get it. His philosophy is very much the same as Askou. I remember him saying he had St Mirren youth team playing the way we do but the first team wouldn't adopt it.

I'd like him to hang around for another year, but accept that he'll go eventually, and most likely while his stock is so high. If he does go, he'll go with my best wishes. What may keep him here is the apparent rapport that he has with the club, players and fanbase. Couple that with the control and freedom that he seems to have at Fir Park, and the club's ambition; it may be enough, but I doubt it, money talks, and it'll be a big pay day for him. He may well think that maintaining forward momentum through the second season is likely to be more difficult. - We'll lose some core players, recruitment will need to be very good to replace and improve on what we enjoyed this season. - Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen and Hibs will probably improve next season. Can he make next season better than this? I hope that, if he does go then wherever he ends up, it isn't in Scotland and he is given the time and resources to implement his philosophy. We and he were very lucky that it all seemed to click so quickly at Fir Park. As for Max, I have no idea if he can step up. The board will decide if such becomes necessary and I have faith in them.

Thats what id assume anyway

What realisticalky do you think we pay? Im thinking 150k ? But could be well short.

Come to think of it, theres a likeness in looks with MM and MR too

Selll JT for 4 Million amd give JBA 1 million

What would he get and where could he go after another season here? Although I suppose same question applies to him being at Toulouse.

I’d be really gutted if JBA does leave us but if he does go, I’d prefer it if he went to Toulouse rather than the pit belts. Rumours that the salary on offer at Toulouse is £1 million per year. If that’s true then he’d be foolish not to want to go there. It’s a sad fact of life for small clubs like ours that success has its down side too.

To be fair we knew when he joined that he didn’t have a good record of staying long at any of his previous clubs so it’s not a huge surprise but having watched his recent interviews post match and his chat to the players I did think that he might want to prove himself in Europe before moving on from us.

Now I know why Pep has left Man City.......

My daughter was a mascot in an end of season game with Butcher in charge. He was nowhere near the dressing room in the 10-15 mins leading up to kick off. He was at the dugout gabbing to the mascots parents and the photographers.

I had thought Malpas would have learned a lot from his time at Dundee Utd, but apparently not. Butcher was a good fit for the situation we found ourselves in, but never really rated him as a manager. Top bloke, though.

If we remember Davie Hay or Terry Butcher taking over, it's a different story. Rogers comes across well, but who really knows if he would keep us moving forward, or if he's even interested.

Hopeully he will have learned more from Jens than Malpas did from Butcher.

Know what you mean, still gives me the fear thinking about him but with this board I’d be happy to take the chance if they decide on Max.

Any time I think about an assistant manager taking over I remember Maurice Malpas and decide against it.

I think.ot all depends on what Jens wants. Hopefully the board can tempt him to stay with improved contract and transfer funds but realistically we can't compete with a club like toulouse financially. Fact fadinger signed extension makes me think maybe chance Jens could stay but we shall see

STV reporting we are in negotiations with Toulouse for JBA. If he goes do you think Max could step up? For me he’s got to be one of the contenders for the job full time. Would JBA take him to Toulouse? Other backroom staff? Feels like a big off season coming up to keep our momentum going. would also say I hope JBA realises he should stay here. sorry never saw this was on other topic

Hes like a Jens tribute act
