DEWELL Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Paul Dickov? Might just work. Would rather him than a bullshiting carsalesman of a manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Did he play at Fir Park for the Scotland boys team when they went on to lose to the Nigerian mens team in the final? If so, almost one of us. I remember when he played for the schoolboy team that cuffed England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twistandshout1983 Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Could think of worse managers than Dickov though I still dont think it will be him, remember his Oldham side dumping Liverpool out the FA Cup few seasons ago when the likes of Suarez was there, took Everton to a replay as well if I remember.

Gadgey Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 I loved that u16s World Cup and still feel the sense of injustice in that Saudi team getting away wi murder. Does anybody remember fan favourite Wullie Broon that played for Ghana???? Leaving that to one side.....if I were to put money on Dickov getting the job, it'd be my most resented winnings in living history....a bit like betting on the accies cuffing us again. I really really don't want Paul Dickov to be our next manager.....if he is, it is a true indication of the poor state our club is in.

weeyin Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Serious question. What's so bad about him compared, say, to a McCall, McGhee or Brown who all had average managerial careers before taking on our squad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gadgey Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 He seems a really nice bloke who would be brave enough to challenge the dressing room like he did when he first went to Oldham. But Dickovs managerial record can only be best described as poor. Low table insignificance with Oldham and a relegation with Doncaster with only one cup upset and a keen desire to develop youth to try and counter that. A quick google search tells all. http://m.doncasterfreepress.co.uk/sport/doncaster-rovers/rovers-news/fans-forum-dickov-s-luck-ran-out-mike-follows-1-7457642 http://m.doncasterfreepress.co.uk/sport/doncaster-rovers/rovers-news/fans-forum-squad-depth-a-major-concern-wes-grimes-1-7429127 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catweazles ring piece Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 However comes in, needs to make similar impacts to that of McGhee and Brown. McGhee would be forgiven IMO if he took the reins and cut out all the touting for other jobs. However, I'll wait patiently in the hope we pick wisely and don't compound our last mistake! That would be fatal to the club across the board. Pick well and best wishes to the new manager. P.S. Any applicant should be shown the door pronto, if ANY buzzwords re Ian Baraclough are quoted in any part of discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purestate Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 I don't know why so many people rate, or would want a caracter like Brown. He only appeared half decent based on what he followed but we didn't move on with him and were in the same position when he left as when he came. A despicable man who was worse than McGhee when it came to tarting himself around. At least you could argue McGhee was at a stage in his career where it was a reasonable attitude to look for a "bigger" club and ones he had some affiliation with. Brown did NOTHING for Motherwell. I'd rather have an ambitious manager who tried something than a pathetic steadying of ship whose only aspiration is to avoid relegation.

Andy_P Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 I disagree with a lot of that purestate. Brown did excellently with the team he inherited. Stabilising a side on the verge of plummeting down the table and eventually securing a European place. The following season he took us to within a bawhair of the Europa League group stages and we were still in the top four or five and in the League Cup semis when he left. Now don't get me wrong. I'm not sure he would have done anything much to develop youth in the longer term and the way he left is deserving of any and all abuse that came his way. To be suggest he did NOTHING during his time with us is frankly pish. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Two things are becoming very clear from this thread: 1. No one has a clue who the next manager will be. 2. Whoever is appointed, even before his very first game in charge, a section of the 'support' will already have said "No thanks" or "Not for me" and will have decided he is doomed to fail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ropy Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 3. We have virtually the same thread talking about virtually the same people every time we're looking for a manager. Are we allowed to call the new guy an imposter or was that just a Baraclough thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
