Yes actually. That's come from one of the horses mouths, literally. He said Fitzpatrick told him top 4, and nothing below top 6 would be acceptable. They ruled themselves out at that point. 

That the same guy that told you Sunderland are a top 10 club ?

Why doesn't Tony just tell potential suitors, or indeed the Press

That as long as we finish above Livi and Accies  we will be delighted. Hey Accies lost 23 games last year, so the target is only 22 losses:whistle

Imagine our BOD having ambition- Hell Mend Them !!!!

i think he would be an excellent choice , read a bit about him in the Kluivat articl, the only surprise is why no club in the lower leagues in England have pursued him . matbe he just wants to come home.

Mickey Mellon at the Mirren...has a ring to it.

Does anyone get the feeling that supporters of other teams are pissing themselves laughing at us ?
Aye, I'm sure having a handful of champions league winners in the frame, (including guys coaching at some of the biggest clubs in Europe) to manage a diddy club in Scotland would have other diddy club supporters laughing.
Morton fans in particular will be pissing themselves as they look to their new boss. United will be much happier to still have Laszlo.
Thistle will be happy to have stood by Alan Archibald and Aberdeen fans will be delighted that McInnes is staying put.

Absolutely DJ. Give me the long years in the wilderness any time.  Ambition indeed.  Humbug

Maybe, just maybe, St Mirren are a sexier proposition than we realize.  Great training facility, smart little stadium, but if history, adjacent to Glasgow airport, good board and on the rise with the core of a squad left by Scotland’s manager of the year.  There are examples of clubs/ countries punching above their weight eg Iceland, Bournemouth, the Scandinavian team managed by that Englishman...

What have the young aspiring princes of the managerial world got to lose? Come to Paisley for a year, work their contact book, cut their teeth as a gaffer.  These guys don’t need the money.  If they succeed they become heroes and go straight back where they belong; if they don’t..... well, they can say it was only St Mirren and they got the experience they wanted.

Any sneak previews of the kit yet ?

 

Don’t think so. All to be revealed at 10am on the 14th. Probably with Oran Kearney wearing it while leaping out of a big cake and shouting ‘ta-da!’.

Illustrious company...... Has any Scottish Club had a trio like this interested in managing them?

Micky Mellon is an interesting one, purely because he'd come with superb knowledge of the lowest tiers of the English game, and thus the potential for unearthing some diamonds would be higher than pretty much any other candidate.

This of course is the model that Motherwell have completely built themselves on in recent years and it's paid off pretty well, with decent finishes in the league, decent money through transfers and last season 2 cup finals to boot.

There's an argument that says it would be a potentially safe route to follow and Mellon has done pretty well in his career managing in those lower leagues. I watched his Shrewsbury team a few times and they were a good side, if perhaps not exactly free flowing.

That all said, I'm never really one for playing it safe. Let's roll the dice and get Guti or Kluivert in and have a go.

We might do extremely well, we might bomb. It will be fun and exciting anyway, who doesn't want that!

Are you implying that there's anything wrong with dating a roommate after gender realignment surgery?

I ask as you do have history of homophobic posts. A example being when a politician had been convicted of having pornographic images on a laptop and you reported it as not just porn but gay porn.

If it was gay porn can you explain how calling it that is homophobic?
