Kmcalpin Posted Wednesday at 10:34 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 10:34 PM A must win game for sure. If we don't achieve that then its taxi for Alf. A nice guy but sentiment can't be allowed to damage the club. Atmosphere will be very tense to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COYW I agree Grizzly but it will hinge on the manager picking the right players and the players then delivering a winning performance. At present I’ve no confidence in either. If we lose, no matter whether we play well or not, sadly I think the board is going to have a big decision to make over the next few days. Their problem will be that if they do decide to pull the trigger, who will they replace him with. I think JBA was fantastic for us last season but it is looking increasingly like it was a one off and trying to replicate it this season was always going to be mission impossible, especially given the players we lost. JBA excepted, I’m not a fan of bringing in foreign coaches to Scotland. They quite rightly assume that the players who will be under their charge will have a certain level of ability and competence but that’s not the case as witness by the deplorable performances of our clubs in the various European competitions season after season. Hibs and Hearts have both brought in foreign managers and the early signs are not good, especially for Hibs who are in the same boat as us right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan Posted yesterday at 04:11 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 04:11 AM Anything less than a win is unacceptable. My concern, though, is that a win will paper over the cracks and buy Alfred more time, only for it to come back to bite us in the medium term. He’s absolutely shite, and delaying the inevitable will only make things worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfred OUT In your measured opinion what would you do when we sack him? Do we revert to an older style British approach or do we fish abroad again and hope the analytics catch us a good one? Just curious to know what managers you like apart from Del. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d give Barry Ferguson a shout. He knows the Scottish game and would undoubtedly be an upgrade on what we currently have and his appointment would be worth it just to see the reaction of certain people in our support alone. Plus we have traditionally done well with managers from a Rangers supporting/playing background. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does mcglynn not combine both styles? I get the feeling people are snobbish about him in the same way Celtic and Rangers fans think every player they sign from anyone in Scotland is not good enough.

Yeah I agree, I think he’s a very good manager and has proved that at Raith and Falkirk with the limited resources he’s had. People look at his age and sadly how ridiculous he looks at the side of a park and there is a snobbish attitude. I do think at 64yrs old though that he’s found his home at Falkirk and I don’t ever see him leaving there unless he’s sacked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
