sergie's no1 fan Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 McNamara would be a great appointment.Close enough 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Have some faith in Magic Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Not impressed. Going to end up with a load of diddies from McNamara and his cronies. That went well at clubs like Falkirk........... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 When it says rolling contract is it Month to Month, Quarter to Quarter or Year to Year? Also Jackie Mac agency doing our scouting I assume. Fairly happy with that especailly with Greg coming in he should be able to sort our defense out and I think not having a defending in the coaching squad hasnt helped these last few months 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubbychops Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Couple of local lads who I hope are is good in management as they were on the park for us. Wish them well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 If McNamara's behind the scenes work at York is anything to go by, you'll be playing in the Lowland League in a few years' time. Unlucky. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 It's certainly different. Crawford and Shields are both club legends so will certainly be given plenty of support and time from the fans. I remain open to it working. Rolling contracts are sensible at this time. Not all too impressed with the McNamara stuff but at least he isn't on the coaching staff and isn't picking players, and if he can get us some decent players then that would be lovely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Hopefully the right time for Stevie to step up after years working under different managers. I like Greg Shields appointment; should be able to drill some hardness into the defence which is needed. Time now to focus on recruitment and hopefully offload some of the diddies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 What’s Crawford done to deserve the job? A short unremarkable spell as East Fife manager then assistant at Falkirk, Hearts and MK Dons. Total unknown quantity for the Pars. I’d be sick the club didn’t go after Petrie or Goodwin if I was a fan. Having a bombscare like McNamara involved is the icing on the cake, don’t think he’s been liked anywhere he’s been. You can expect plenty of jobs for they boys types I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Greg Shields now looks like a short version of Josh Homme. The say there will be another coach coming in too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McNamara won't be involved in the coaching side, as the statement says. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can let me know where I said I expect him to do that, or indeed anything, that would be great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubbychops Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Is McNamara's role to bring players in and Stevie manages them. Bit like what Chelsea do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
