From the WhatsApps this morning: Match details confirmed ✅ We will face Havnar Bóltfelag at Fir Park for the first leg of our UEFA Conference League tie before travelling to Tórsvøllur for the second leg. All ticket information will be confirmed and published in due course. https://bit.ly/4uVEON7

Yeah, think age is less important now as the game has evolved. I a similar way that a Manager giving the hairdryer treatment these days probably wouldn't wash and would be less of a motivator than in the past.

They have a set procedure per the order of names drawn out the hat but that can be affected by other European games set to be played in the same locality so that’s probably the delay in confirming the dates for Motherwell game. I have no clue how they sort that out if it is an issue.

JBA fist advice to new manager Don't expect decent officiating at matches and Don't read the forums .

The age point is a red herring. The issue isn’t how old a manager is, it’s whether they have the aura and presence to lead and command the respect of 20-plus other men. In our case, we’ll soon find out.

Ooh er missus - titter ye not.

Jock Wallace liked to play at the beach his favourite movie was The Hill.

Good list there to start 👍

Keep taking your meds mate 💊

Any list would have to include Tommy Coyne, James McFadden, Davie Cooper, Phil O'Donnell, Keith McCrae, Joe Wark, Willie Pettigrew, Bobby Graham, Bobby Watson, Brian Heron, Vic Davidson, Paul Lambert, Brian Martin, etc.....

Good man...any discussion will be welcome and good natured

Brilliant

You are basing that on one video!. Jeez gie him a chance, probably nervous as he has big boots to follow. In Alfred we trust

That made me titter

In selfish mode I hope Egypt beat new Zealand as it helps Scotland... A 4-3 win with just hat trick be perfect

I'm beginning to think that, even if Just were Scottish, he wouldn't be getting a call-up from Mr Clarke, hat-trick or not.

I think these comments come off the back of the BBC Sportsound article where there was discussion about the importance to players of a good first impression. I suppose a first impression is by definition something you can't define. It's a feeling rather than something more objective. Unfortunately he is going to be compared to Askou and unfortunately for Johansson that is going to be a very difficult act to follow. We all hope he can match Askou's success but the slight nervousness is understandable because Askou has set such an impressive precedent.

Jim Jeffries and Jock Wallace had an aura.

He's managed at Rosenborg , he's not a novice...like I say it's the close season for folks.

Must be the close season , finding things to judge people on that you can't " define" I agree re jba but this guy has a good reputation, that'll do for me just now.

At that age he will get on well with our 35 year old chairman!

He scored record number of goals for the club and had a tragic end probably resulting from an undiscovered brain condition: a legend in Cardiff as well.

I'll have a go but there are better qualified posters than me on here. Hopefully it will generate some discussion.

Without knowing you personally but reading your comments for years I'd say that you're the man for this

Very difficult indeed. Maybe start at 1886 and work our way forwards compiling a list of contenders in the process and then sift through them and sort in order.
