Harry Kinnear Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 If they can get us a squad of players that aren't shit and to start playing decent football again they will get my backing. We just know for a fact that whoever it is we will get fans of previous clubs coming on to tell us how shit they are. Mind you for the past 4 years when we have signed players and fans of their previous clubs have told us they were absolute gash 99.9% of the time they have been right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roman_bairn Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 This is the stupidest thing I've ever read. She has more credentials than any other candidate for the job. She won the FA Cup and took Scotland to a world cup ffs. And before you go bleating about the woman's game not mattering, if you think the English Woman's FA Cup or literal woman's national team is a lower level than League 1 in Scotland, you're an absolutely fucking mental piece of shit.Whoever we get as next manager needs to command respect to get anything out of our tinpot dressing room brigade.If anyone genuinely believes that Shelley Kerr could deliver that, and the respect of our supporters they are living in cloud cuckoo land.As for the women’s team being of a higher level than the top end of League One, L.O. F*****g L. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. I'm all for womens football and promoting it. I've attended a fair few Scotland womens games but to say the standard is anything above non-league is laughable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because she doesn't strike anybody as that sort of person whether that be through watching her coach from the side of the pitch in the past or from watching her interviews.

Give her the job and she could bottle half the dressing room, and the boardroom too actually she has managed a mens team before for a few seasons, lower level than us but not only 2 levels below. there most likely are better candidates anyway but I hope we're not just writing her off purely because she's a woman 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the next coach have to face much of the tinpot brigade though, only 5 are signed through 2022. There are several routes to respect, and I suspect at Falkirk the BoD (and the DoF) effectively chopped the legs out from under M&M on that front by making it clear they did NOT have effective control over the creation of the team, or even the week to week line-ups. Certainly the pandemic shattered many plans for team design, and perhaps contributed to a wholesale turnover of a second place team, but M&M still didn’t seem to know how to use many of their signings, which makes me wonder how much choice/input they were really given. That doesn’t excuse/ignore their sometimes amazing decisions, but if you are lucky, the next assignment could reflect the (hopefully) rock bottom nature of the situation. The way to judge this will be if the BoD/DoF allow a coach who is given real power or instead pick a pliable retread. The other question will be is the coaching hire who can turn this around and regain the Championship the same coach who can succeed in gaining Premiership status and success, or are they potentially two different people? If they are possibly different people, then the next choice is from a wider, and possibly younger, field. If the BoD/DoF are convinced that one hire can do it all, then the list is much smaller, much more “established”, and may have to focus on an experienced coach seeking rehabilitation from previous mistakes...with all the risks that entails. 3 minutes ago, FalkirkBairn2021 said: Emm, the US women's team lost to a bunch of 15 year old High school boys.

Yip. Some of the games in the last women's world Cup were excellent. Women's football is progressing at a rate of knots and increased professionalism will help that. It can be a really good watch technically too as it's so much slower. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how he'd spin that for a job in the third tier... Tony Adams used that excuse as well I think for being utterly shit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me we need to be looking for a manager who can win us the championship and then stabilise us in the premiership. We will soon be on our 6th manager in little over 3.5 years- we can't continue with this level of management and player turnover. Phil and Carrie Rawlins have come in with the clear objective of getting to the top flight ASAP- we need someone in who can achieve that rather than another short term firefighter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
