HoBNob Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Don't rate him. Kille fans can't wait to be shot of him, even if the go down. It's the worst team they've had in years. Jason Thomson was laughably shit at us in our SPL, genuinely the worse right back I've ever seen at us, absolutely fucking horrendous. And we were absolutely dog shit that year He's done alright at Raith. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 At least you have no expectations for the season so he can't disappoint! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renton Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) At least you have no expectations for the season so he can't disappoint! Locke is a master at making bad situations worse, so he could well excel himself and manage to dissapoint us.

Scary Bear Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Is the appointment confirmed yet? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalkirkBuddie Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 He has uefa pro licence which, presumably, the other candidates don't. Smith does. It was between those two as the others I assume would need to be bought out contracts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers1992/1993 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Is the appointment confirmed yet?2pm apparently unless they do a decent thing and tear up the contract already. I'll happily wait another 2 weeks if they want find the right man. Doesn't have to happen today.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Smith does. It was between those two as the others I assume would need to be bought out contracts. Interesting. Wonder why we bothered interviewing Aitken and Young if that's the case, wouldn't compo have to have had been agreed between both parties before we were allowed to speak to either of them?. As I said earlier if we can't afford the likes of Aitken or Young then we're in a pretty bad way. Essentially we've went for Locke due to cheapness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Smith does. It was between those two as the others I assume would need to be bought out contracts. Smith would probably have been a more sensible option given the ex-Dundee players in our squad. Maybe the board asked them and their references weren't good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, onwards and, eh...If it is him, it's a really uninspiring choice. Do the board not look at things like win ratios?

Maybe the board just has some weird mental trigger, manchurian candidate style, when someone mentions they were at Hearts.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted May 20, 2016 Author Share Posted May 20, 2016 I'm sure I read somewhere that the new manager was to meet the media at a press conference at 2pm. I'm guessing it won't be broadcast anywhere? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's never easy supporting us. You're only a bad boardroom decision away from the seaside league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzle Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 It's Raith Rovers mate, not Barcelona. Yeah but it's Gary Locke, surely teams over the world will be gutted when he's unveiled as our new manager after stealing him away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
