fifer67 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 iWish Gary all the best, he is one of only two managers to bring silverware to Bayview in the last God knows how many years.Vfery true to say we are only now in the same position as when he took over. The football on show this season has been all too predictable and honestly becoming a bit of a chore to watch.going by the crowd on Tuesday it doesn't look like I'm the only fan who thinks that. If I was given the board any advice I would ask that they pick a new manager who sees the game being played with a bit of attacking adventure . No name really springs to mind so the board should ask for cvs from interested parties and take their time to get the right man.As has been said whoever it may be has a a few big hurdles to get over early in the job as we urgently need players. Also the matter of no wins since September ,let's hope we get the new manager bounce. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taysider99 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 What about James McFadden player/manager with an experienced assistant in the dug out has his badges and will surely want to start lower down like Naysmith plus could tap into motherwell's well run youth setup 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t2ady Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Would expect Greig McDonald is someone the board will be considering if he is interested in returning in a management capacity. Clearly a top player and leader for the club not so long ago and he done a job on Naysmith in that play-off final! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brucelee1973 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 All I have to say is all the best to Gary and Dougie. I hope that we get a wee bit money from the guys going that is given to the new manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatdoug1938 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Mcdonald didn't do all that we'll at Stirling. I think that would be a heart over head appointment 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with fifer67, I can't think of anyone not employed at the moment that I would say "ye lets get him" so I would like to see us go down the CV route and see who wants to start/restart their managerial career, we also need a leader on the park in the same mould as Steven Tweed. 4 hours ago, fatdoug1938 said: Kevin Smith would be horrific!

Good luck to Gary all the same Cheap option for Qos am stunned by the appointment. Never done much at EF Imo must have been good at the interview. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van magic Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I think Tam Courts would be the right man to replace Naysmith. Young manager who has done a great job at Kelty and could bring in some of the better players from the junior game to bolster our squad. They'd need to offer decent money for any of Kelty's players the wages they pay 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to Gary, Dougie and QoS, I think they will all need it :-) Because he's 29 and completely untested.

Dick Campbell fits the bill, knows the lower leagues inside out Why would DC take on the East Fife job, better off at Arbroath. He is on a one year rolling contract and would not be a cheap option for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've shown over the years that first time managers are completely hit or miss That's true of every experienced OR untested manager I've witnessed over the last 56 years of watching EFFC. Davie Clark was 29 when appointed manager and was untested, Stevie Archibald (31) was untested, Pat Quin (33) was untested.................... Alex Totten was an experienced manager, Jimmy Bone was an experienced manager, John Roberson, Billy Brown......................... Surely that's not your only criteria was dismissing Kevin Smith as a candidate (I have no idea if he would be interested).

fatdoug1938 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 He's almost our main player and that's why it would be a disaster. Not worth discussion, I've as much chance of getting the job! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
