baillieinleeds Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 The merest thought that the mentions of Scott Brown, Marvin Bartley and Christophe Berra becoming manager gives me the fear. What’s with the love in for Bartley. Have we learned f**k all since the Goodwillie debacle, whether it be rape or attempted violence in Bartleys case will not be tolerated. If McGlynn leaves, and I hear it’s Falkirk btw. Who do we bring in. Now ain’t the time for a rookie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Sandy Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 (edited) Do we KNOW for certain that JMcG is leaving? Sorry to sound a bit obtuse but this thread is all over the place.....I cannot see his "pending" departure confirmed anywhere/ Edited April 29, 2022 by Wee Sandy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fairly unusual behaviour for a BoD with the pre season looming and other clubs starting to sign players for next year. It's not about wanting him gone, but there is no doubt the whole thing is in the air. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still suspect JMcG is departing, and can’t understand, if he is, why there’s any delay in naming next years manager and getting on with signings. Which may mean that JMcG will stay, but then again, why no signings? You have covered all bases there Tx 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridiculous if we allow Mcglynn to go to Falkirk, we will regret that decision especially to repeat history and go with a rookie manager like Grant Murray was 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In less than 12 hours our season will be over and there's no word on what's happening with our management team. I can't recall us ever being in a situation like this before other than for the likes of Hughes who had a short term deal only. It's no wonder people are speculating. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His contract runs out in June. What then? Why has there been no extension before now? Is he to proceed on the basis of signing players before getting dropped when pre season starts? Don't think so. There is no way this isn't abnormal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 It really is abnormal. Nobody here is asking for his release. We had the long period without a win, but also had a longer unbeaten run earlier in the season. He was involved with the Goodwillie situation but hasn't doubled down anywhere near spectacularly as our board. It might be that he's still considering his options but even then you'd have expected to see something in the press. It's the polar opposite of last season where we had Berra, Zanatta and Keatings all signed up before the league campaign had ended. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double Jack D Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Although it is 99% certain already, could it be that there is an offer waiting to be signed once our league status is confirmed. I would imagine there would likely be a demand for change in terms and conditions should we miraculously become a Premier League team next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 We aren't going to be doing any transfer business until the management situation is sorted. Partick, for example, have started already. And even if we narrow it to players that are out of contract now and we want to keep them, how many are going to sign when they don't know who will be managing them? It's ridiculous, frankly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Yeah, it’s poor. I can appreciate the board didn’t want to offer a contract either in the midst of a terrible run or when the play-offs were still on the line. But last Saturday cleared that up and in my mind, Monday afternoon should’ve seen either a picture of McGlynn signing his contract or plans for a ‘John McGlynn Day’ at tonight’s match posted on the website. Surely they’re not still deliberating? The board must know the outcome so it would’ve been nice to know - if this was some no-mark journeyman I wouldn’t really mind the secrecy. ‘We intend to start contract negotiations…’ would’ve done if he’s staying. And if he is going, it’s not right to either let him go without fuss in the summer or to force McGlynn himself to make it clear to the fans at the game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If McGlynn ends up not being our manager next season and he doesn’t get a proper send off tonight I’ll be fucking livid. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am fucking shocked and beside myself at what’s happened tonight at Starks’ Park, and even more so at the actions of those who I trusted to keep the morals of the club in tact. Unsure how I’ll now spend my Saturday’s as yet, but it sure as shit won’t be in Kirkcaldy. Cheers. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
