Actually a friend who has just arrived in France for a holiday mentioned that the Toulouse/Motherwell connection is being discussed in the sports press there, so there may be something to it. When he leaves us, I hope it's for abroad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewelllfan Posted 21 hours ago Report Share Posted 21 hours ago I hope if we are losing JBA it's done early so we have time to replace him. We should realistically have a shortlist ready to go as it shouldn't be a massive shock his track record shows he doesn't tend to stay long in jobs and you can't begrudge him a move for more money. The new manager needs to be in place for pre-season to get the recruitment done as we enter Europe in Conference League QR2 or league cup groups should Hibs win sat and Dunfermline win the cup/ That means next season restarts in July so not much turnaround. This rebuild should in theory be easier than the last as we have a decent core and lots of sellable assets which should attract some better players and managers than years gone by.

grizzlyg Posted 7 hours ago Report Share Posted 7 hours ago Nick Daws got new role as Head Of Football ( or Hand of Football) as John Beaton would call it! 🤪 Taken lot of stick over years for the poor signings but has unearthed some gems in unusual markets and players released.

wellfan Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago With Daws being promoted, and clearly far more involved behind the scenes than many of us probably realised, it seems pretty clear to me that the club is laying the groundwork for JBA’s eventual departure and replacement. What’s encouraging is the apparent focus on internal continuity and structure, and preserving our new model over the longer term. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to build on current success and take that forward to even out troughs and peaks. JBA will move on be it on Sunday or 2027. Its reassuring that the club is preparing for that event. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s encouraging is the apparent focus on internal continuity and structure, and preserving our new model over the longer term. It does look like that. While you often hear new managers talking about "laying foundations" and other corporate lingo, JBA and the Board seem have to been implementing some actual strategies and ideas to do exactly that. You always want a manager to leave a club in a better state, and even if he does go in the summer, there is no doubt he has done that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
si91 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Another take could be that JBA is putting more of his stamp on the back room things (I hope) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
