He's not got a chance though. He's basically coming in with one possibly two hands tied behind his back trying to make a silk purse out a pigs ear. I'm not blaming the bloke it's the arseholes above him. They need to get rid of Holt and get away from the head coach pish. It's wordplay for your getting the blame first..

He'll be back as a coach somewhere else within six months guaranteed.

We have no chance. The DoF agreeing deals with players and going there you go you make a team out of this. I know you might not like them but tough. You get us up or your sacked and I'm not culpable. Nor are the directors. Enjoy!

He's got one hand tied behind his back having to work with Holt. And coming in to an absolute car crash such as us. He's not had pressure on him which he will have here. He absolutely needs to get off to a flyer and play attractive attacking football and win almost every week. If we are struggling a dozen games in with hardly a win he will probably be out a job.

Exactly, which is why Holt shouldn't be dabbling in recruitment, contracts etc. We could end up with some utter dross but it will be Sheerin in the firing line

Agreed, not really what we needed or wanted , made harder/easier depending on the type of player Holt brings in for him to try and get a tune out of. The first probably being Williamson who by all accounts can't defend.

Definitely need decent competition for Mutch. I wouldn't be averse to Rogers back. What is slightly concerning is the continued presence of some of the shite that downed tools, and why haven't they been told to piss off yet.

I actually think Sheerin could end up at ICT, being an ex player there. Location probably suit him better aswell.

He also had County dropping like a stone before he got emptied. No thanks.

That'll be them finishing above us next season then.

Sadly aye I really don't see the need, was different when M&M were struggling and making a c**t of it but he really didn't help at all, in fact we got worse, the fact he is having an input on players is a worry. If it is Sheerin he's already going to be severely hamstrung in what he does before he's even in the door, that's if he even is any good as a coach.

Yogi would want complete control on football matters he won't come to us to be dictated to by Holt, which is why we are probably going to end up with Sheerin whether we like it or not as his "lump of clay".

Duffy and Rae are awful shouts. There's not one name been mentioned that makes you think yes that would be a great appointment but no doubt we will end up with one of them.

I don't want to see him period. Not even as a back up.

I won't I hope he goes to ICT or Dunfermline.

It's irrelevant he doesn't want to come to us.

Please appoint Sheerin as your new manager, ta muchly.

Would make sense, being an ex player etc.

Ryan Williamson first signing, with Holt waiting in the wings and introducing him to Sheerin as he comes through the door. "There ye go pal no need to thank me you'll get used to it. Heard your a bit pish defensively but don't sweat it I couldn't care less, Paul your my boy don't let me down now I'll be watching..."

I wasn't keen on Grant but looking at the other names he suddenly looks more appealing. Or Rice. I thought we had received over 100 applications from across the globe yet the names in the frame are jobbers like McIntyre, Kettlewell and an under 20's coach. There must have been someone surely that had a better CV than them.

We can't gamble though. This appointment has to be spot on and none of those names fill you with any confidence at all.

The key word being "bother" we will no doubt find out in the coming days. It'll be bad "bother" for us there's an excellent chance of it. I just have a horrible feeling you'll see Jim McIntyre holding aloft a Falkirk scarf by this time next week.

I don't think Rice will come. I think he might do a bit of soul searching but at the end of the day Accies stood by him with his gambling issues, he's on record as saying he owes a debt of gratitude to them. That and the fact he's got a lot of young players coming through into that team. They have a decent chance of going back up. He seems quite a down to earth bloke and he's probably no chance of getting sacked at Hamilton anytime soon. Unless he makes a right c**t of things. We on the other hand are a complete basket case.

Tiffoney will go to Thistle. McCall was on the radio last night downplaying Turner at Airdrie so another probably going there. And they just signed Holt the ex QoS player.

He shouldn't be having the final say on who we sign. Especially at the minute. Unless they already know who the next manager is going to be and he agrees. It's lunacy otherwise.
