I think Collins clearly had some good ideas due to his experiences with Monaco. I think he lost the dressing room though when he took his shirt off and challenged the squad to work harder so they could look like him! (Paraphrasing).

It worked for Mcglynn

i take that story with a pinch of salt too. It might have happened differently to the reports, or it might never happened at all, but there's no doubt a few of the unhappy players went running to the media to dish what they perceived to be the dirt, so they could try and get rid of him.

Progression for me doesn't mean attaining more success, it's more about continuing with what we've been doing. I'm thinking more along the lines of establishing ourselves as a mainstay in the top six, for example. We've finished in the top six something like three times in the past ten years, so establishing a run of finishing in the top six would be progress in my opinion.

Continuing to play an attractive, exciting brand of football that attracts fans to the ground is also important. 

That's mainly what I mean when I say it would have been interesting to see how JBA would have fared in his second season.

We've finished Top 6 in 45% of all the seasons played in this format.

I think that's pretty good considering there are 6 much bigger teams and maybe another 4-5 similar sized teams.

Anyone out by Wishaw Golf Club know if the helicopter has arrived yet?

Who are the 6 much bigger teams? I count 2 much bigger teams and 3 with bigger budgets but not massively bigger.

I think Hibs, Hearts and Aberdeens budgets are considerably higher. Aberdeen had 3 players on >£20,000 a week and the average wage being £5000 a week, that's considerably more that Motherwell. Hibs and Hearts will pay similarly.
