athens-saint Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) Hendrie: imaginative appointment (back to back promotions with Berwick and Alloa) Champions in style. SUCCESS Coughlin: lazy internal appointment Awful season. FAILURE Gus: convenient internal appointment Champions but dreary to watch. SUCCESS Lennon: imaginative appointment (back to back promotions with Cowden) SUCCESS Highest league finish + Cup win. SUCCESS Craig: lazy internal appointment (backstabber?) Awful season. FAILURE Teale: convenient internal appointment. Motherwell 5-0, Ross County 3-0 - Make your own minds up! FAILURE? MY VERDICT In the past a left field approach has worked wonders. Making a difficult choice has more often than not led to success. We should take a punt on a manager from the lower leagues. I`n not sure about Murray. What about James Fowler or Darren Young (if they`d take it)??? Edited May 20, 2015 by athens-saint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabinho Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Jim Jeffreries would not be the worst that's been mentioned to be honest...Nowhere near the worst but I'd still rather have Reid, Murray or Fullarton before him.Probably in that order.

pozbaird Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Jim Jeffreries would not be the worst that's been mentioned to be honest... Well, that's the name I was told today was in the frame.

proudtobeabuddy Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Nowhere near the worst but I'd still rather have Reid, Murray or Fullarton before him. Probably in that order. I'd rather have him with a young assistant manager, in an ideal world Thommo, that would be an ideal way to prepare him for management.

pozbaird Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I won't be annoyed if it's true. I won't be annoyed if it is Jim Jeffries, Ian Murray, or Derek Adams. I firmly believe we must stop the automatic promotions from within, and have a clean break and a new outsider coming in. I would place them in order of personal preference Murray - Adams - Jeffries, but I do believe the Jeffries rumour to be just that, a rumour.

I really don't fancy the idea of a washed up, best days behind him, former coach who is bored shuffling round the local garden centre with his missus, taking the job. Everything is crossed here.

TopCat Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Jeffries would be an even worse appointment than Adams, Reid and Stark. And that's saying something.

Drew Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I suspect the Jeffries rumour was put out there via the BoD so we will welcome the eventual appointment of Billy Stark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isle Of Bute Saint Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Jim Jeffries would not bother me maybe as a father figure for Teale , who knows lots of names floating about now. Div normally reliable but keeping well away from the debate passing on Billy Reid. Come on out Div we know you are out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Aye, but isn't the concensus view that we will go for the 'cheap option' likely to be proven correct with a Jeffries appointment, while also not rewarding the man who lead us to meek relegation with the gig, and also ticking the box 'outsider coming in' with no dressing room alliegances? Just saying like... Still think it's bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ulysses Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I think we can tell from all this that we're probably still interviewing candidates. All the names mentioned or rumoured have probably been in for interviews, and the board will make their mind up on Thursday/Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
