It’s a futile debate now but I have never been convinced by the arguments for that. Coyle was clearly lined up as the replacement before Jim got his jotters and I have seen nothing from Coyle to suggest Roy triggering that sequence of events was anything but ill judged. The poster above rattled off a bunch of stats to try and convince us Coyle is doing a better job than Jim. I think anyone who really believes that is a bit deluded. Coyle has accumulated 13 points from 45 and we are now rooted at the foot of the table. Jim took 22 from his last possible 45. Coyle needs to get this transfer window spot on. Let’s hope he does.

Aye he is a proper banter merchant and has a local lassie in tow so I doubt he will be in a hurry to make a move.

Kinda agree with Frank here - that lengthy post, whilst containing some fair points, also honks a bit of desperation to try and prove that Coyle is doing well. He isn’t. Coyle couldn’t have wished for a kinder run of matches relative to the 7 league fixtures that McIntyre managed at the start of the campaign. I believe Roy understandably has some regrets. I dunno if that’s with the sacking of Jim and Billy, the hiring of Coyle, or maybe both. From what I have been hearing indirectly from players, it would not surprise me in the least if it’s the latter.
