Stu Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 I completely agree with what he's saying and thought the same when the statement was made earlier in the week. If the board want to make him manager, appoint him. If not, cheerio. What are they going to learn in an interview that they haven't learned in the last six months? Could be this was the board's plan, rather than making us think they weren't appointing him just before season ticket renewals come out. They give him the chance to apply, he doesn't take it and tough luck, you've had your chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddie Marvelous Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Let Thommo concentrate on scoring goals. He can win the League for us that way. Management will come for him in the future. Agreed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid Calder Saint Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Tell me this how can you bring young players to what is no more than a village team in what is a fairly poorly populated area.They have done fairly well with the likes of McKay-Steven and the boy Cooper both going to Liverpool.They now have the talented local lad Dingwall in the first team.Along with Adams's dad they did set up an Acadamy but it could take years to bear fruit.Quite frankly few of us a actually realise how difficult it is to attract players to the Highlands.Of course our keeper Ridgers is a product of County's youth set-up.

It's actually a lot easier than you think. County's model, as the progressed through the leagues, was to sign players from the central belt who were in the 'last chance saloon', with the sell being to move away and concentrate solely on football. It worked very well for them. They also pay whacking great wages... I also wouldn't great Derek Adams for the youth set up. His dad perhaps, but definitely not him.

Mid Calder Saint Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Isle of Bute Saint.Considering this thread opened only on Monday of this week since when did I mention Davies's name.I merely suggested Adams for the vacancy.According to Facebook he has actually applied.I don't consider I am a funny guy just a fan putting forward his suggestion.Am I not allowed to?

They actually have pretty impressive youth facilities, as they are part of the Highland youth academy along with ICT and have an indoor pitch. http://www.highlandfootballacademy.co.uk/about/ http://www.highlandfootballacademy.co.uk/about/Gallery/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyond our ken Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Cheerio Gary: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32741957 We weren't 8 points behind Motherwell or 11 behind Ross County when you took over. After a decent showing in December and January we have been shocking in February, March and April and your January - March signings have been unable to improve a terrible squad put together by Tommy Craig. how do you know he is gone For my money, this is a smart move. No-one of any repute is in for the job and Teale at least has the experience of being in charge at Paisley. You would have to know who else actually applies before declaring GT a goner If saints want him, they will make an offer regardless of whether he applies or not. By not applying but still showing his interest and desire he is putting himself forward and will have a strong hand if appointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyond our ken Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) a load of uninformed shite being posted on here today and a load of armchair experts declaring that GT is not the man. you have to remember that the board are seeing what he does day-in day-out with what is acknowledged to be a shite squad. GT has given a start to some good young players this year, being brave enough to discard the underachieving senior players or challenge themto do better i would not bet against GT getting at least a short-term deal Edited May 14, 2015 by beyond our ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid Calder Saint Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Yes and we must not forget it was Gary who recommended we brought Calum Ball to the club being down to his Derby connection.I feel Gary may well be our No 2 failing which he should complete his coaching badges and perhaps take the managerial reigns at a smaller club to learn his trade.

That tells me he won't get it (putting aside the theory they are putting off appointing him until they get the season ticket money). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
