Stevie88 Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 I've heard this evening that it's going to be Barry Smith. That came from someone that knows him. Not inspired. I hope not would be a shite appointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldo_j Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Not buying that. I reckon the BoD will know better than to appoint without some form of structured recruitment process. Once bitten. Then again.... Totally agree. I'm not 100% for believing it, but it came from my cousin who grew up with him in Hunterhill and I've had a few beers in Barry Smith's company through my cousin...so there is a bit of a link. Like I say, hope it's not true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulysses Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 (edited) Not buying that, purely because he isn't the wheeler-dealer type with good contacts, and that's what we're after (according to Gilmour).

pozbaird Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 (edited) Teale says on TV he's in a good position to get some results and push for getting the gig permanently. Thompson says if offered the manager's job he'd find it hard to refuse. Goodwin isn't saying anything on TV, he's just been relieved of his assistant manager/coaching role. Our three most senior figures, embroiled in the managerial clusterfcuk, and none of them contributing much on-field either, due to injury or flying elbows. The more I think about it, the more I think we need an outsider coming in, one who wouldn't stand for any shite, or have any favourites, or be part of any dressing room cliques. If Teale got the hump, so be it. If Thompson got the hump, so be it. Far too incestuous for my liking. Maybe the likes of a Terry Butcher type would kick some arses.

aldo_j Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Doubt it bud, can't see him getting it. Hopefully no truth in it. The same, hope it's not true. Dunno if I can handle another 'wet blanket' appointment! However, if it is the case, maybe the board have looked upon the season where he galvanised Dundee post administration and went on that ridiculous run....

Dibbles old paperboy Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Find it hard to believe that with SG on holiday that they would be anywhere near making an appointment yet, especially before GT and DL have had any matches in charge. It sounded like they would maybe wait for a week and see what applications came in and then shortlist a few and begin speaking with with people then.

Kendo Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 It's really great to see that there is a renewed interest in our fantastic club, let's hope that the attendances reflect this.
