That strip looks as if your club have gone all Brexit.

Mine would be anyway. But I'd still hope and expect to survive given the new manager will have a full budget and can sign the players he sees fit. There's genuinely no-one out there in our price bracket that I feel could come in and have the same top to bottom impact on the club that Jack Ross did, though. There's no really outstanding talent in the lower leagues that any of us feel we *must* get. Goodwin has been mentioned in several circles but definitely not for me, at least not yet. He's taken Alloa up, granted but so did Darren Dodds last season with Brechin and no-one was battering down doors for him. Hopkin is just a no-go area for me, he's done well to get an industrial team playing industrial football but yeah....not for me.
I'm hoping there's a few left-field names out there that will prove interesting but for me Neilson ticks the boxes of the names mentioned so far. He's young enough that his reputation isn't completely shot to f**k. He's had a decent two seasons managing a Championship stoating team then going on to have a good year in the top flight and he's likely got decent contacts in the game.
He's not the dream candidate but then no-one is.
Suppose another nice scenario would be Alan Archibald if Thistle get rid. He's had a poor season but is certainly not a poor manager.
Even if by Sunday evening we are still a Premiership side, please do go in for Archie. He will do you a fantastic job.

Genuine question. Will United survive this financial disaster? And if they do how poor will the squad be? Regards a possible new manager. Take Archibald.

Not again!!!!!! Better get used to this I suppose.
Lesson to be learned from how Jack conducted himself regarding Barnsley though. Showed respect by meeting them and gratefully withdrew. Look what happened to the guy they appointed .... If Ipswich don't have a pot to pi55 in that will be clear if/when he speaks with them and he can make his decision once he is equipped with some details.
Also, Jack has 2 years to go on his contract so buying him out of that plus compensation from any potential suitor will cost them, no matter how much that is by comparison to the numbers St Mirren is used to dealing with. If Ipswich don't have it they can't spend it.
I go to see Ipswich about five teams a season. They are a brilliant club with great facilities. This would be a fantastic move for Ross.
Regards any finance there wouldn't be a problem. Under McCarthy there wasn't great finances in comparison to other Championship clubs, but Marcus Evans is loosening the purse strings to mount a promotion challenge. Evans has plenty of cash behind him and this is a move to get Ipswich into the Premiership. Interesting times ahead on this one.

Just telling it how it is.
We've got a young, successful manager, who gets mentioned every time a reasonable job comes up. You've got Alan Archibald.
When your boss moves on Archibald will probably be your next one.

As this was Labour's last hope in Scotland it looks as if our death is confirmed. The guy is hopeless. Time to quit the party methinks.

Hendry has some great attributes in terms of playing with the ball at his feet, especially the whole taking the ball for a walk up to midfield. Also, his passing is a joy to behold at times; a rarity for a Scottish center half. Like McKenna he seems to have came from nowhere, couldn't even remember him at the Jags!
Hendry only played about four games before we sold him.

Theresa May is having a brief hiatus in the Brexit shit storm; it won’t last long and she will soon have to deal with the fallout.
It’s an opportune time for Corbyn’s enemies* to go on the attack over an issue that no one can really class as topical.
* Was it Churchill who mad the comment about those on the benches across from you are the opposition; those on the benches behind are the enemy?
Corbyn’s biggest enemies are still those in his own party who don’t want a socialist in charge.
Corbyn may describe himself as a socialist, but he surrounds himself with mad batshit crazy communists.

^ the tread + politics thread. I shall say no more
I certainly don't hate my country. I just depair, politically, of a country that is bereft of any real talent, on all sides, the worst being the Labour Party. A country in the 21st century is packed with sectarianism and bigotry and with authorities who clandestinely condone it.
Regards Scott McTominay. Where have I said I hate him? The guy hasn't even played 20 games yet for Man U yet people on here are almost fawning over him, some purely to get one upon England. I personally think that if he keeps playing the way he is, by all reports, then he would walk into an England squad bound for Russia. There is no sign of Scotland making a finals. And with the appointment of McLeish I have my doubts as to that being rectified.

Not really, just painful being in a country full of serviles with no belief. Saddening really

Borussia Moenchengladbach were a decent German team. Us beating them 11-0 over two legs in 1960/1 has also been omitted.
Indeed. We left a very-much fancied team arguing among themselves.. Terrific night at Ibrox though I was only 12*. Possibly the best Scottish result in Europe?
*I remember going to Ibrox aged 9 and us getting pumped 1-3 by Górnik Zabrze.
The best result in Europe by a Scottish side was Celtic's European Cup triumph. Nothing can outdo that.
I remember the night that Gornik result came through. It was a shock to us. Wasn't that Davie White's last game in charge?
