Bannsider Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Oran does speak well and is an intelligent man, however I don't know why yous all think you are getting a brilliant manager, it's a different level for him now, tactically is he good enough etc, great man manager, I suppose time will tell but I wouldn't be getting to excited.

I believe Oran took the boat over this morning, he took training last night and told the players he is taking the St Mirren job. Always sad when you lose a good manager not that they come around often enough. Tickets are easy to get on match days. We have a members club at the stadium I'm sure a few of us can get you signed in for pre-match pint and give you guys a warm welcome. So keep in touch with the forum.

JM1 Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 ????????No idea mate. Cheers for the good words. I think the excitement comes from how similar Oran sounds to our previous manager who won the league for us last season - Jack Ross. He was a promising young manager who apparently was a specialist in man management and tried to get his team to play good attacking football. All of this came to fruition and we had possibly the most enjoyable 18 months of supporting the Saints up until he left in the summer. Heres hoping Oran does well. Also a wee pre season trip to Coleraine next summer would go down well too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume if we went to a St Mirren game v Celtic of Rangers it would be hard ot get tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent people tend to avoid those games.Indeed, IMO, all Saints fans should boycott those games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, there's 800 or so tickets left for what would be his first game in charge, at home to Celtic next Friday night, if you fancied it It is being televised on BT Sport, though.

I'm not sure it's really all that big a step. Plenty have come over in the past, some have worked out some not. The main thing he needs to do is to motivate the team and get them working for each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linwood buddie Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Hope he's confirmed , was my choice last time round and think that this guy can be as successful if not more than Jack was. Think I will take a bit of time which he will no doubt be given , and if we are to go back down this season as long as we are doing it fighting that's fair enough we will come back , under Stubbs we would have went down with a whimper , there was absolutely nothing there , so welcome O.K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
