norrie82 Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Surely not. Please not. Cheap option and totally unproven in the top flight. A massive gamble! He has achieved nothing yet he didn't even make the playoffs he finished mid table ffs. I am sure Danny and tommy deserve another year at least. Show ambition and if you are releasing the manager get someone in who has a proven record. But we won't as that causes money doesn't it so we will go for Murray and pay him less than Danny . What a total lack of ambition and what a joke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a total lack of ambition and what a joke He took Dumbarton from the brink of relegation to promotion candidates, he also got them a long way in the cups. That said, he wouldn't be my number one option and I'm not convinced he'd do a better job than Danny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Gingero Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 We need a proven Manager at SPL / English Championship level or keep Danny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy Marvellous Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 (edited) He's one of the best young managers in Scotland, who has taken a club with a set up not much better in terms of cash structure and facilities, than a top amateur club further than they had any real right to. There are not many 'proven' managers out there so if our management team is changing I say look no further than Ian Murray Jack Ross and oor Suggie for our next dream team!!

norrie82 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 No please no. Untested and I really don't fancy jack Ross or Hugh Murray either. Either get Danny a one yr extension or go for a guy who has top flight experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your kicking the hole out it a bit there, have you seen the Dumbarton squad it's full of ex spl players proven journeymen, and a few top flight loanees thrown in for good measure it's a pretty healthy squad they have, so this working wonders just isn't fact, also did they not offer a certain McGinn brother more money than we did,,,, it seems to me there's been a fair bit of investment put into that club,,, there's nothing remotely amateurish about them, Edited May 11, 2014 by scrappy coco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemp Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Danny Lennon had a better record in the lower leagues before arriving, and now has a good few years experience in the SPL and a cup win to his name. It would seem more logical to keep Danny Lennon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would seem more logical to keep Danny Lennon. ????? How can you have a better record in lower leagues with one promotion by default? He had never managed in Division One. Without one signing and one injury we'd never have won the Cup. I always set that aside, especially as Danny was never head hunted like McInnes, Lomas, Coyle, Hughes or even Jefferies. As far as lower league signings went, Danny's knowledge went about as far as McGregor. I'm not saying Murray's would be better, but he certainly appears to have completely turned Dumbarton around. Give him better resources and who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McLean on that park vs Celtic, we'd have been f**king slaughtered. No Goncalves, we wouldn't have cut anyone apart. I'm not talking about the penalty save or the first 30 versus Hearts. Had Kenny been fit and Austin hadn't brought in Goncalves we'd be currently talking about how Danny's replacement did in his first season.

And Terry Butcher finished 4th in the SPL with ICT. He's the man to take Hibs to the next level.... Whoever the alternative is it's a roll of the dice. Stick with Danny I say.

buddieup Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Every manager for a club the likes of St Mirren is a gamble. Sir Alex Ferguson was a gamble, as was John Coughlin. The results tend to vary, but we can't exactly afford to be picky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been in a further 5 finals if I'm not mistaken and lost (x3 Scottish Cup and x2 League Cup) meaning a final every 15.2 years. Cup success is littered with luck for every successful team. You'll look back on your nonsense comments in years to come and cringe. Get over your dislike for one person and enjoy all too often exceedingly rare St.Mirren success.

I'll cringe at nothing!Strange you claim to be a St.Mirren fan. You must be perennially disappointed and frustrated. Looking back at the last 26 years ongoing top flight football and a major trophy is continued and consistent success...ETA: I shouldn't have replied when you don't seem to mind the ridiculousness of your point. I just cannot understand why the memory of 17/3/13 is tinged with this bitterness and not simply complete unbridled joy.
