That's the spirit

I'm just being honest mate.Its not a good draw unless Beith manage to shock Morton and then its an interesting day out. Another trip to Greenock doesnt fill me full of excitement.

[Gaz FFC]

Given we rarely lose at Greenock I'm calling it a replay or away win.

[Anthony Fitzgerald]

Poor draw in the cup, difficult tie and not much money out of it.

For a bit of fun, if Housty somehow was approached by Hearts to work under Levein and he took it, who would you realistically want as our next manager?

When you look at the lack of options for the team who finished third last season in Scotlands top flight, it makes me wonder how we would get on if our manager was pinched.

[lionel wickson]

Stevie Aitken would be an excellent choice.

Jobbie.

I've read too much on the Bonnyrigg thread to know that's a bad idea.

[Marshmallo]

There's an obvious candidate but it would divide the fans.

Blood all over the place if that happens...

Does that mean our attendances would double?

Hughes/Latapy dream team

Would just go to Maybury to be honest.

Has anyone mentioned Pedro Moutinho yet?

Pretty sure Latapy left Inverness as he wanted to be a manager in his own right. Would take any of those options though except Maybury & Moutinho.

Cant see Hughes ever coming back after the way he left. He fell our with just about everyone before he jumped ship.

That's a fair shout actually because he seems to be doing a good job at Brechin.

Hopefully it's not something we'll need to worry about!

[NavyBlueArmy1876]

Of course, this discussion is entirely pointless. Houston has stated multiple times he would never leave us for another club and this job will likely be his last in management

For what it's worth, odds for new Hearts manager from skybet:

Ian Cathro 4/7

Paul Hartley 5/1

Steven Pressley 7/1

Gary Naismith 10/1

Jon Daly 12/1

Neil McCann 16/1

Steve Clarke 22/1

Dougie Freeman 22/1

Alan Stubbs 22/1

Dougie Freeman 22/1

Malky MacKay 22/1

Alex McLeish 22/1

Darren Ferguson 25/1

Houston not even mentioned

Not that I think he will go, or that Hearts want him, but using a bookies list is hardly proof.

He will leave at some point though, it's just curious to see who would be available.

Jean Francois Lecsinel.
